Culture and maintenance methods of reticulate grass

In many countries in Europe and America, it is very popular as a family potted plant, which can be said to be popular. However, as more and more people say it is accepted, many friends in China have planted potted grass. It is small and exquisite, light in shape, clear in leaf pattern and quite ornamental, so it is not surprising that more and more pot friends grow it as a family potted plant.

Reticulated grass is not only fresh and beautiful, elegant and world-famous, but also can increase the humidity of the air when it is kept indoors, which is a green humidifier. Reticulated grass can also release a lot of oxygen while beautifying the living environment, giving people a refreshing enjoyment. There are so many benefits of home potted grass, so how to raise it? The following small series will tell you about the cultivation and maintenance methods of reticulated grass.

I. Light

Reticulated grass is a light-loving plant, as long as the light conditions are sufficient and appropriate, it can maintain this good growth, and the leaf color is very beautiful. Although he likes light, he is not resistant to direct sunlight and exposure, so corresponding shade measures should be taken when the sun is in the sky in summer. The recommended practice is to place the potted grass in a bright place near the window, which is also more convenient for management.

II. Temperature

In addition to its preference for light, Reticula also prefers a warm environment, with the optimum temperature for growth being 18-25 ° C. Although this plant has a certain shade tolerance ability, it is not cold resistant. In order to avoid freezing damage to the plant, it is recommended to keep the growth environment temperature above 12℃. If the temperature is lower than 8℃, the plant is easy to freeze to death.

III. Humidity

Reticula likes a humid environment, which not only increases the internal air humidity, but also requires a higher air humidity during its growing season. Suitable air humidity environment can provide favorable conditions for its growth, and when the air is too dry, especially in the summer high temperature dry environment, if the air humidity is not enough, the plant is easy to grow poorly. In order to improve the suitable air humidity environment for the growth of reticulate grass, we can do this by spraying foliar water and ground water.

IV. Watering

For the watering of reticulate grass, first of all, the pot soil should have good drainage. If too much watering leads to ponding in the pot, the leaf color of the plant is easy to appear white, and sometimes accompanied by falling leaves and decay. The watering of reticulate grass is generally carried out in the early or late hours when the temperature is low. In summer, the plants should also be sprayed frequently to increase humidity and keep the leaves bright. In winter or rainy weather environment, watering should be controlled, especially after the plant enters dormant state when the temperature is low, watering should be carried out when the temperature is higher in sunny days.

V. Fertilization

Many potted flowers and plants should adopt the principle of "thin fertilizer and frequent application of less nutrition", so is reticulate grass. In addition to adding a proper amount of completely decomposed organic fertilizer as base fertilizer at the bottom of the pot when transplanting, it is recommended to apply compound fertilizer once a month during the growth period, and water should be poured once after each fertilization to dissolve and dilute the fertilizer, so that it can be more evenly dispersed in the pot soil and absorbed more fully.

VI. Change the basin

Reticulated grass is usually adopted cutting way to breed young plants, in the process of operation to avoid damaging the base of the cuttings, but also to avoid direct contact with the base fertilizer, otherwise easy to burn the plant. When the plants are full of original small flower pots, we should change the pots and soil in time, so that the plants can grow freely in a more relaxed space, otherwise the plants will be crowded because the original pots are too small, which will not only cause fierce competition among the plants in the pots, but also seriously reduce the ornamental nature.
