1、 Curing method

1. Soil: loose soil with good air permeability shall be selected for breeding, which can be mixed with peat soil and coconut bran

2. Moisture: when watering, we should choose thorough or gradual water supply, because it is not suitable for long-term and large-scale watering. If the amount of water is too large, there is water in the basin, which will cause the decay of its roots, stems and leaves, affect its growth and water absorption

3. Nutrient: organic fertilizer is often used when applying fertilizer. Put the organic fertilizer into the water to dissolve it and pour it into the surrounding soil layer. However, we should also control the amount of fertilizer, and do not apply too much or too little

4. Light: it is sensitive to light because it is not suitable for strong light, and astigmatism is the best. If the irradiation is insufficient, the leaves in the middle will turn white. At this time, more light should be added

2、 Breeding skills

1. Pruning and changing pots: when the lotus was cultivated for about two years, its root system grew well and its meat leaves became thicker. At this time, the original flowerpot was not enough for its absorption, so it should be replaced with a larger flowerpot. When changing pots, you should trim the complex roots, which can better promote absorption

2. Propagation: leaf cutting propagation does not damage the integrity of the whole plant, and the survival rate is high. The propagation time is the best in spring and autumn. Select thick and robust meat leaves and insert them in nutrient rich soil. You can see the buds grow in about a week

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Dry: in summer, due to the hot weather and high air temperature, it will sleep, but it is not very obvious. At this time, if you don't give it shade, astigmatism and frequent water replenishment, it will cause dryness, so pay attention to water replenishment

2. Rotten roots and leaves: in daily protection, excessive water is easy to cause root rot and leaves falling off as soon as they touch. Water supply should be carried out step by step during irrigation

4、 Other issues

1. How to spend the winter: it can adapt to the low temperature of zero degrees Celsius in winter. If the temperature is lower than zero degrees Celsius, it should be put indoors. At this time, proper thermal insulation shall be carried out to avoid damage to its growth due to low temperature

2. Whether it can be exposed to the rain: the lotus leaf can not be exposed to the rain. The rain on its leaves will cause the leaves to wilt and rot. Storing water in the basin will cause root rot, so it should be covered in time in rainy days
