How to raise Guanyin lotus? How often should I water it? Can I put it on the balcony to bask in the

The conservation management methods are briefly described as follows:

Sunlight: Sufficient sunlight in winter, 30-50% shade in other seasons, and no direct sunlight in summer.

Watering: It is advisable to water thoroughly in winter, and in other seasons, the topsoil can be watered after drying, which can tolerate drought and not tolerate long-term water stains.

Fertilization: Try to apply as little as possible, or only add basal fertilizer when changing the soil, and it is not harmful to apply it later, such as watering some light fertilizer water in spring and autumn to grow better. When watering fertilizer water, avoid polluting the leaves, if there is pollution, rinse with water.

Temperature: The suitable temperature is 15 30, not tolerant to severe cold, and should be kept above 10 in winter.

Since the root system is not well developed, do not use pots that are too large.

The soil should be loose, breathable, and well-drained sandy soil. Guanyin lotus is a warm, moist and sunny plant, born in the shady and humid understory, abundant rainfall and evenly distributed environment, with deep soil, good drainage, fertile and loose sandy loam soil is the most suitable, afraid of water accumulation, the most suitable growth temperature is 22-30

Guanyin lotus should often keep the soil moist, in order to facilitate its vigorous growth, its fertilizer and water requirements are higher, when cultivating to apply enough organic fertilizer as base fertilizer, before planting to germination needs sufficient water, the growth period to maintain a proper supply of fertilizer and water, generally every 2-3 months fertilization 1 time. Attention should be paid to the prevention and control of stagnant water.

Guanyin lotus potted plants should be loose, well-drained and aerated humus-rich soil, generally with the same amount of humus, garden soil and river sand mixed as a substrate. 4 September is its vigorous growth period, at this time the soil is required to be moist and the air humidity is high, and sufficient water should be given; Especially in the high temperature period in summer, the evaporation of water in the leaves is large, and the water demand is more, such as the lack of water is easy to make the leaves wilt, so it is necessary to spray water frequently to the leaf surface, while keeping the environment moist, but it is necessary to avoid water accumulation in the pot, otherwise it will cause root rot. In autumn, when the temperature is lower than 15, the growth of Guanyin lotus is stagnant and dormant, and the aboveground leaves begin to wither gradually. If the humidity is high and the temperature is low, the tuber is highly perishable.

It's so easy to raise, it's okay to dry or damp, and it's okay to get more sun, but you have to prevent low temperatures.
