Light: it should be given plenty of sunshine during maintenance. Insufficient light will cause it to grow in vain. Water content: usually keep the soil slightly wet. It doesn't need to be watered in summer when it goes into dormancy. Soil: the soil with enough air permeability will grow better. Fine sand and peat soil can be mixed. Temperature: it likes cooler weather. It will sleep when it is hot in summer. The lowest temperature is no less than 4 ℃.

1. Light: when it is growing, it must be given sufficient light. In the sunny conditions, its leaf arrangement will be very shaped, grow villi after also very good-looking, if the light is not enough, it will grow in vain.

2. Water content: keep its basin soil slightly moist in spring and autumn. Summer is its dormancy period. Put it in the shade and cut off the water. After autumn, slowly restore the amount of water.

3. Soil: the plant does not have very high requirements for soil, so when we prepare the soil, we should mainly focus on air permeability. Coal cinder and peat are good choices

4. Temperature: its habit is quite special. It will sleep in the high temperature in summer, and will continue to grow in winter. It has certain cold resistance. The minimum temperature should not be lower than 4 ℃.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Propagation: most of the propagation of opal is carried out by sowing, and the seeds can be obtained through its flowers. Sow the seed. If the seed is fresh enough, it will germinate in 2 or 3 days. Pay attention not to move it too much when it takes root, so as not to affect its growth.

2. Change basin: although it does not have high requirements for soil, after a long time, the air permeability of soil will become poor. At this time, it is necessary to change the soil and basin, basically once every one to two years. Be careful when changing the basin. Its root is very fragile. Don't hurt it.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Rotten roots: most of the rotten roots of matte appear in summer dormancy, because the dormancy in summer is neglected in management, and it is easy to have waterlogging and root blistering in rainy season. We should check the root system as soon as possible and change the soil.

2. Slow growth: slow growth mostly occurs in winter, because its growth temperature is too low. If it is lower than 4 ℃, it will appear slow growth or even stagnation.

4. Other issues

1. Whether it can be cultured indoors: Opal can be cultured indoors. As long as it is placed in a well lit place, it can grow well indoors. But we should often open windows to ventilate, to avoid breeding pests and bacteria.

2. Toxic or not: matte jade is not toxic. Its small shape is very cute. It can be cultured safely with a few plants at home.
