1、 How to spend the winter

1. Pay attention to heat preservation: Pennisetum is suitable for growing in a warm environment, and its cold resistance is not very strong. It is necessary to do a good job of heat preservation in winter, otherwise the plant will be frostbitten. You can put it in a warm place indoors. If the temperature is low, you need to change the hydroponic culture to soil culture to avoid the plant freezing to death due to the low water temperature

2. Light is helpful for the growth of plants in winter, but it can not help the plants to survive the winter if the light is moderate. Generally, in sunny days, you can put it in the sunny place at noon to receive light. If the temperature is not very low, you can also have proper ventilation

3. Pruning in time: before winter, the Pennisetum can be properly pruned and the upper part of the plant can be cut off, so as to avoid frostbite and reduce nutrient consumption. If pruning is not carried out, the leaves of the plant are easy to wither in case of low temperature, which affects the overwintering and is not conducive to the growth of the next year

4. Control watering: Pennisetum grows slowly in winter and has low demand for water, so don't water too much to keep the soil slightly dry. In addition, pay attention to the water temperature when watering. Don't use cold water. You can put the water indoors first and wait until it is close to the room temperature

2、 Will winter die

Water cultured Pennisetum is easy to die in winter. If the climate is warm, the plant can grow normally, but in the north, the temperature is low, so it is generally replaced with soil culture, so as to avoid frostbite of the root
