After planting, cover the basin with a small amount of moss to moisturize the basin, and then place the bowl in shallow water 3-4 meters deep.

Temperature: bottle grass likes to be warm in winter and cool in summer, and the suitable temperature for growth is 20-26 ℃, which is more hardy. In winter, the bottle grass is in the dormant period, the overwintering temperature should not be lower than-5 ℃, but it is best to maintain the temperature above 8C. Bottle grass is not resistant to drying and high temperature, so shading, spraying water and strengthening ventilation should be taken to reduce the temperature.

Lighting: bottle grass likes a semi-overcast environment, and strong sunlight will burn the leaf tube. Shade in summer, cover 50% of the sun, 60%, or put bottle grass in a place where there is enough scattered light to avoid direct sunlight.

It is necessary to spray water on the leaves of bottle grass in summer, which can not only reduce the environmental temperature, but also dry the environment is not conducive to plant growth.

Fertilization: in spring, bottle grass can be treated with nitrogen-based fertilizer every semimonthly, and the root can be irrigated with 0.2% copyright 0.3% fertilizer, or the diluted fertilizer can be directly poured into the pest bag for absorption. On the other hand, the bottle grass with red leaves and red veins should pay attention to the cooperation of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, so as to make the leaves bright and improve the ornamental value.

This is the end of the introduction of the culture method of the little sun bottle grass. I believe that after reading it, we have a certain understanding of the culture method of the little sun bottle grass. I hope the relevant content introduced today will be helpful to you to a certain extent.
