How do you care for a jade plant to make it grow more vigorously? These care tips you need to master

Flowers & Gardening 0 views
If you want your jade plant to grow vigorously, first give it plenty of sunlight; second, fertilize it regularly and keep the potting soil slightly dry, watering again only after the soil has dried out. During the scorching heat of summer and the freezing cold of winter, move it indoors and keep the temperature suitable.

I. How to make it grow more vigorously

1. It is a plant that especially loves sunlight, so you can place it in an area with particularly abundant light; this is the key to making it grow especially vigorously.

2. Because this plant grows fairly quickly, you can repot it in a new pot every spring, add some fertilizer, and then place it in a bright area to recover.

3. Its roots are fleshy, so it is not very afraid of drought; therefore you do not need to water it too much. Wait until its soil has dried out completely before giving it more water.

4. If you want it to grow sturdy, you must take good care of it in normal times. Do not let it be exposed to blazing sun and then drenched by heavy rain during the hot summer season, as this will make its leaves drop. If it keeps raining heavily, move it inside, otherwise its roots will suffocate from too much water.

5. During its growing period, you can give it a relatively dilute fertilizer once a week, but be sure not to use too large a dose. As winter approaches, move it to a bright area indoors and stop fertilizing it. In the depths of winter it cannot tolerate the cold, so keep the temperature above 7 degrees.

II. Care precautions

1. Water it once every two or three days during the growing period, and do not let water accumulate. During the hot summer season, you need to strictly control moisture and give it ventilation, otherwise its leaves will easily die. In the depths of winter, reduce the frequency of watering, and keep the soil slightly dry.

2. To keep it from getting too much fertilizer and to keep its shape full, you should use rotted livestock manure. Especially when repotting or transplanting it, be sure to give it enough fertilizer.
