1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: crystal candles prefer warmth. Under normal circumstances, they can grow normally in an environment below 30 degrees. Too high temperature will be a little unbearable, so try not to exceed 30 degrees in summer. At the same time, its cold resistance is not very high, so it is necessary to keep the temperature above 15 degrees to avoid frostbite of its branches and leaves

2. Watering: the drought resistance of crystal candle is very low. For normal growth, it needs to provide enough water to ensure that its normal growth is not affected. In spring, it needs to be watered every two days or so. In summer, it needs to be watered according to the specific conditions of the soil. Keep the soil moist at all times. Tap water is the best choice. At the same time, it can also be properly exposed to the rain when it rains

3. Light: warm sunlight is indispensable for its normal growth. However, it should be noted that it cannot accept too strong light, otherwise the color of plant branches and leaves will change and affect viewing. At the same time, too weak light is not suitable, and the plant growth will be relatively slow and can not achieve the expected effect

4. Fertilization: if the soil has nutrients, it will grow more vigorously. Each fertilization should be applied directly to its roots, because the density of branches and leaves is large and cannot be absorbed normally. After fertilization, the residual fertilizer on the branches and leaves can be washed off with water

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation: cutting and sowing are the two most commonly used methods. Cutting is recommended to be carried out in spring and summer. Select branches with three leaves, but insert them into the water. After germination, they can be transplanted into the flower pot. The temperature needs to be controlled after sowing, and it can germinate almost 20 days after sowing

2. Pruning: crystal candles may grow densely during growth, so pruning can increase light transmittance to ensure better growth, and some dead branches should be cut off together

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Disease: leaf blight often occurs and can be controlled by spraying Bordeaux solution every other month

2. Pest: the occurrence of pest is relatively small, because its branches and leaves are relatively thick, so if the breeding is correct, it rarely occurs

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: no poison, but it can't be eaten. Breeding is OK

2. Whether it can be raised at home: Yes, it belongs to foliage plants, and its ornamental value is relatively high
