1、 What kind of soil

Peacock ball has less strict requirements for soil quality. It mainly ensures good drainage and loose nutrition. Sandy loam will be better, which can promote the timely discharge of water and prevent the accumulation of water from leading to rotten roots. Peat soil can be used as the main soil, adding coarse sand, vermiculite, perlite, etc. in order to ensure nutrition, a certain amount of plant ash can also be added to provide nutrition. You can also use rotten leaf soil, coarse sand and garden soil in the proportion of 2:3:1. The mixture is also very suitable, with both nutrition and ventilation. Or simply mix the garden soil with vermiculite and perlite, and the effect is also very good

2、 Precautions

2. The medium and long-term growth may lead to the hardening of loam and the restriction of root growth. Therefore, loosen the soil in time to ensure the loosening effect
