1. Light, hanging orchid is more suitable to be placed in the place with bright indoor light, such as living room, balcony separated by glass, windowsill, etc.

2. Water, Chlorophytum is the meat root, and it can store certain water, so it is very afraid of water accumulation, so water must be dry and wet, about 3-5 days, once.

3. The humidity and air humidity are too low, which is easy to cause the dried tip of Chlorophytum. Therefore, if the house is too dry, you need to spray water on the leaves of Chlorophytum and the surrounding ground every day to increase the air humidity.

At the same time, when changing the basin, cut off part of the long root system. Otherwise, it will affect the growth of Chlorophytum.

2 reproduction method

1. Select the Chlorophytum that has grown a small plant, and cut the Chlorophytum.

2. Prepare clean nutrient soil and wet it with water.

3. Sterilize the wound part of the small Chlorophytum in carbendazim solution, and then dry it in the shade.

4. Cut the small Chlorophytum into the soil.

5. Put it in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance for a few days, wait about 1 week, and then turn to a place with bright light for maintenance ~

3 FAQs

The dry point of Chlorophytum is mainly caused by the low air humidity, so after the dry point appears, cut off the dried place, and spray water on the leaves of Chlorophytum and the surrounding ground every day to increase the air humidity.

General situation:

Chlorophytum leaves yellow, a big reason is the problem of watering, in the leaves yellow, first think about their recent watering frequency

If you haven't watered for ten and a half days, the reason why the Chlorophytum is yellow must be because of lack of water. Water it thoroughly, remove the yellow leaves, and then water it until it is dry and wet. Is to feel the surface of the soil when watering, if it is dry, then water.

If you water once a day or two, it may be that you water too much, cut off the yellow leaves of Chlorophytum, loosen the soil on the top of the flowerpot, and then put it in a well ventilated place, so that the water in the soil evaporates as soon as possible, and then maintain it normally.

Special case:

If all the leaves of your Chlorophytum are yellow, just shave your head and have a new hair.

① cut off all the leaves on the Chlorophytum, leaving only 3 ~ 4cm close to the soil.

② put it in a cool and ventilated place for curing, water it thoroughly, then wait for the new leaves to come out!

① if the root rot of Chlorophytum is not very serious, it can be maintained in a cool and ventilated place, and soon it will be better. But if the rotten root is very serious, we will have an operation.

② knock the Chlorophytum out of the flowerpot, and then use water to clean up the soil on the root system.

③ check the root system of Chlorophytum, if there are black and rotten places, cut them all off until you see the normal white root system. Note that the knife should be disinfected.

④ put the wound of Chlorophytum in potassium permanganate solution for disinfection, and then put it in the shade to dry.

⑤ put the root powder on the wound of Chlorophytum, and then put it into the basin again.

If your Chlorophytum is hydroponics, the previous processing steps are the same

In the final basin, to ensure that the water culture utensils have been thoroughly cleaned, and disinfected with alcohol, etc.

In addition, after re - potting, about a week to change water once, at the same time, to clean up the roots of Chlorophytum mucus.

Tiger skin orchid

1 daily maintenance

1. Water, snake plant doesn't need too much water, it's enough once in half a month, but in winter, it's enough once a month.

2. The light, the happy light and the shade resistance of snake plant, so it's OK to put them there. The living room, balcony, windowsill and so on are all OK.

3. Apply fertilizer. snake plant can live well without applying fertilizer. Generally, when changing pots, a small handful of slow-release fertilizer can be buried in the bottom of the flowerpot, or bean cake, chicken manure, etc.

4. Flowerpot, because the root system of snake plant is shallow and its ability to divide plants is very strong, the flowerpot should be shallow, but the one with larger diameter.

2 reproductive techniques

① carefully check the root part of the orchid. If there is a bud, it means that the orchid can be divided. However, the buds in the picture below are still relatively small, and it will take a long time to

② take off the basin of the snake plant, wash the soil on the root with clear water, and then carefully observe the root of the snake plant.

③ find the node between the young seedling and the adult plant, follow that node, and gently break the young seedling off.

④ put the seedlings in the basin, then water them, put them in a cool and ventilated place for about 1 week, wait for the roots to grow, and then maintain them normally.

Select the healthy leaves and cut them into about 10 cm segments.

After the leaves are soaked with carbendazim for disinfection, some rooting powder is applied to the wound.

③ prepare loose and permeable soil, you can choose to mix peat soil and vermiculite.

④ insert the leaves into the soil, water them thoroughly, and then place them in a cool and ventilated place for curing.

⑤ in about 20 days, snake plant will grow roots.

1. Rotten root

① remove the tiger skin from the pot, clean the root system with clean water, and check the rotten part. If the root system should all rotten, please refer to the cutting part above. If there are not many rotten places, please look down

Use a knife that has been thoroughly disinfected to remove all the rotten parts. Do not leave any of them. Otherwise, it will cause infection again.

③ put the part of the wound into chlorothalonil (carbendazim, potassium permanganate) and soak for about half an hour to thoroughly disinfect and avoid bacterial infection.

④ take it out and put it in a cool and ventilated place to dry. You can induce roots in the water before putting it into the basin again. You can also avoid luring roots, but the effect after luring roots can be seen in the following figure.

⑤ prepare new soil and flowerpot, and put it on again. The flowerpot can be used as the old one, but remember to clean and disinfect it before use.

The rotten heart of snake plant is mainly caused by watering the heart of the leaf and not killing it in time, which eventually leads to the rotten heart of the leaf.

In this case, there is no other way, but to take healthy cuttings, the specific operation method can refer to the above propagation method.

The light is too strong

In particular, some flower friends put the snake plant directly out in the sun. It's strange that the leaves of the snake plant don't turn yellow and dry.

In this case, put the snake plant in a cool and ventilated place, and then cut off the yellow leaves. After a while, you will be able to produce new leaves by yourself.

Too little water

Although snake plant is drought resistant, but it does not water for a long time. snake plant will consume the water stored in the leaves. If it consumes more water, the leaves will become soft and yellow.

Think about it. Have you not watered it for months? So we need to water it now.

Too much water

If the leaves are hard, but the edge is still yellow, it is too much water. Loosen the soil quickly, put it in a well ventilated place, and speed up the evaporation of water, or there may be the risk of rotten roots.
