1、 Soil

It is recommended to use breathable, permeable and fertile acidic soil for breeding Indian rubber trees. Basin soil is best prepared with rotten leaf soil, grass ash soil and a small amount of river sand

2、 Temperature

Its growth temperature is the best at 20-25 ℃, and it is relatively heat-resistant. It can grow well even above 30 ℃. But its cold resistance is very poor. When the temperature is too low in winter, it will have a lot of fallen leaves. In northern areas, it needs to overwinter indoors

3、 Watering

When it is hot in summer, it grows faster. It should be watered with large water and thoroughly, but it should avoid ponding in the basin soil. Reduce watering in autumn to promote the enrichment of plant growth, which is conducive to its smooth overwintering

4、 Illumination

Give it enough sunshine to make it thrive, but pay attention to give it proper shade when the summer light is strong from May to September. You can control the light intensity using shading nets, etc

5、 Precautions

1. Fertilization: some nitrogen fertilizer can be applied, and an appropriate amount can be used. It can reduce the occurrence of stripes and make the leaves bright, but remember to stop fertilizing them in winter

2. Pruning: it's best to prune it in spring, cut off bifurcated branches, inward branches and weak branches, and maintain ventilation and good light transmission in the tree
