How often is the money tree watered?

When the plant is cultivated, the plant placed in the greenhouse should be sprayed with water once a day when the room temperature is more than 33 ℃. Because the plant has strong drought tolerance, it is better to keep the basin soil slightly wet and dry, but occasionally excessive watering and fertilizer will not cause root rot. In winter, we should pay attention to spraying water to the leaf surface and the surrounding environment, so that the relative air humidity can reach more than 50%. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, we should reduce watering, or spray water instead of watering, in order to help the newly drawn tender leaves pass the winter safely. In addition, in winter, we should pay special attention to the basin soil should not be too wet, it is better to be too dry, otherwise under the condition of low temperature, too wet basin soil is more likely to lead to plant root rot, or even death of the whole plant.

In addition to adding an appropriate amount of retted cake fertilizer or multi-component slow-release compound fertilizer to the cultivation substrate, thin cake fertilizer can be irrigated once a month during the growing season, or 0.2% urea plus 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate mixture can be used. In the pot plant to the north of Huang-Huai area, an appropriate amount of ferrous sulfate can be added to the fertilizer solution to prevent physiological yellowing of the leaves. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, in order to enable it to survive the winter safely, the application of nitrogen fertilizer should be stopped and 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution should be applied continuously for 2 to 3 times to promote the hardening and enrichment of its young leaf axis and newly drawn leaves. When the temperature drops below 15 ℃, all forms of topdressing should be stopped so as not to damage the roots under the condition of low temperature.
