Cultivation Management of Monstera

Monstera is a perennial evergreen vine of the genus Araceae and Monstera. Its unique shape, stem like bamboo leaves like turtles. All year round, green, overhanging, and resistant to yin and drought, potted plants are placed on the corners of the living room, bedroom and study area, giving people a sense of elegance, elegance, and elegance. Monstera is warm and chilly. The optimum temperature for growth is about 30°C. It stops growing at 10°C and enters hibernation. Monstera grows well in moist, semi-humid conditions. Avoid drought, afraid of direct sunlight. Monstera requires less soil, but it grows better in humus-rich and slightly acidic soils. If you want to cultivate a pot of monstera that has good growth and high ornamental value, you need to do the following: 1. With soil. Monstera is rich in humus, loosely ventilated, and well-drained slightly acidic soils. Potted plants are usually made up of 3 parts of humus, 3 parts of compost soil, and 4 parts of river sand to prepare a culture soil, or 2 parts of mature loess, and briquette coal. 1 part of ash and 1 part of chicken manure were mixed and mixed into culture soil. 2. Change pots or change soil every spring. When changing pots, a small amount of high-quality organic fertilizer or phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be mixed in pots and soils as basic fertilizers, and basal fertilizers such as hooves and bone chips can also be put in the basin bottom. Change the normal growth after about 10 days. 3. Watering. Monstera leaves are large, the water evaporates quickly, and they are hi moist. The principle of watering should be kept wet and not dry, and the basin soil is often kept in a moist state, but water can not accumulate. Sunny days, watering once a day in spring and autumn, once in the morning and evening in summer. After the winter, watering should be reduced, and the basin soil is too wet, which easily leads to rot yellow leaves. Water is usually poured from 3 days to 4 days in winter. In addition, water should be sprayed on the leaves frequently, sprayed 3 to 5 times a day in the dry season and summer season, and sprayed once or twice a day in spring and autumn to keep the air moist and make the leaves green and lovely. 4. Fertilization. From Month to September, Monstera needs to apply a thin fertilizer every 10 to 15 days, which can be followed by thin fertilizers or compound fertilisers mainly consisting of nitrogen fertilizers. For example, the old water that is cooked with cooked rice or fish is better. During the peak period of growth, top-dressing (foliar fertilization) can be carried out once or twice, and spraying on the leaves and leaves with an aqueous solution containing 0.1% urea and 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate. 5. Monstera should be cultured in bright scattered light indoors. If it can be extracted in spring and autumn for a period of time on the north terrace or under the eaves, under the porch conservation is even more prosperous. If Monstera is exposed to strong light, the leaves are susceptible to yellowing, and even leaf margins and dead tips are affecting the ornamental effect. 6. Monstera moved into indoor conservation before cold dew (early October). During the wintering period of Monstera, attention is paid to insulation, antifreeze and cold protection.
