How to raise asparagus well

2. Watering: asparagus does not have strict requirements for water. The general standard of watering is that the soil is dry and then watered. When watering, the leaves should also be watered thoroughly, but pay attention to not causing stagnant water. The air is generally humid in spring and autumn, so it is necessary to water according to the standard, and the soil is easy to dry in summer, so it is appropriate to wet the leaves.

3. Fertilizer control: asparagus is actually not so fond of fertilizer, unlike green pineapple, tiger tail orchid, etc., like rich trees, light fertilizer can be applied, generally mainly nitrogen fertilizer, usually once a month, otherwise because there is relatively little potted soil, and nutrients can not be replenished in time and appear morbid.

4. time of light: asparagus is a semi-shady plant, so it is not suitable to bask in the sun for a long time, especially in summer. Spring and summer can be properly exposed to the sun.

5. temperature regulation: asparagus can grow normally as long as the temperature is above 10 degrees Celsius in daily life, put in a ventilated and cool place in summer, properly watered to cool down, and in winter, it is necessary to keep the indoor temperature above 5 degrees Celsius, otherwise the flowers make asparagus frostbite and die.
