How to raise Guanyin lotus in winter

Guanyinlian is a popular ornamental plant, which is cultivated indoors as a potted plant, which can not only decorate the home, but also improve air purification and air humidity. Guanyinlian is a plant that is not resistant to cold. If you do not pay attention to maintenance in winter, the leaves are very easy to wither and fall, so how to raise Guanyinlian in winter? Come and have a look with the editor.

1. Temperature control

In winter, some temperatures are low, and Guanyinlian is not cold-resistant, so make sure it is not too low to make Guanyinlian frostbite, but it is not appropriate to control the temperature too high to affect its dormancy. The right thing to do is to keep the temperature between 5 and 15 degrees, not less than 5 degrees at night and below 15 degrees during the day. If the temperature is higher than 15 degrees, Guanyinlian will continue to grow, which is extremely disadvantageous to its dormancy.

2. Reduce watering

The temperature is relatively low in winter, Guanyinlian enters the dormant period, the root system basically stops activity, so watering can not be the same as in autumn, the second is to keep the soil dry but not completely dry. Watering Guanyinlian in winter is usually 2-3 Mondays, and can be watered according to the dry and wet condition of the soil. If the soil is pinched and powdered, then it needs watering, and the rest generally does not need watering. If too much watering causes the soil to be too wet, it can easily lead to root rot.

3. Increase the light

In winter, we need to put it in an indoor sunny place, such as a balcony or window, and it is best to put it on the inside when not on the balcony, so as to ensure good ventilation and keep the light. If the leaves droop because of the muggy environment, you need to pay attention to timely ventilation, if the indoor environment is poor, you can turn on the lights to make up the light manually.

4. Fertilization as appropriate

If the temperature is stabilized above 10 degrees, a small amount of thin fertilizer can be applied every month in winter, but if the temperature cannot be kept at 10 degrees for a long time, then fertilization needs to be stopped. It must not be fertilized frequently in winter, otherwise it is very easy to produce fertilizer damage, resulting in leaf curling and discoloration.
