In summer, the weather is hot and humid. Many plant lovers' flowers at home either look listless or just die, especially some succulents. It is simply a disaster for succulents, but some plants are now growing at flying speed, for example, this pothos.

1. Pothos

Pothos is a tropical plant. It likes warmth and humidity, and the high temperatures of summer are exactly its peak growing season. So in summer, pothos will grow explosively. So how do you make pothos grow at flying speed in summer?

Let pothos receive light. Pothos is a plant that likes... it likes an environment with scattered light. Many plant lovers put pothos indoors to care for it and do not let it receive light, but this is actually incorrect, especially during pothos' growing season. If it does not receive light for a long time, the whole plant will look listless and even become wilted. We can also let it receive scattered light, or let it receive morning or evening light, but do not expose it to strong sun. This way, pothos will grow more vigorously.

Another point is to water more and spray more water. Pothos likes a humid environment, so keep its potting soil slightly moist, but absolutely do not let water accumulate. If the soil we use needs to be loose and breathable, then when we water more, the excess water will seep out of the flowerpot and will not stagnate inside. Spray water on the leaves. Under good ventilation, this can increase air humidity, and this pothos will grow at flying speed.

Fertilize more. Pothos is growing fast now, so it uses up nutrients relatively quickly. We can fertilize it two to three times a month to ensure its vigorous growth. You can use self-fermented rice washing water, or cake fertilizer water, or fermented soybean water. You can also use compound fertilizer. Do not use too much compound fertilizer; three or four granules are enough. You can also use water-soluble fertilizer.

In this hot and humid season, pothos will grow very fast, almost growing one leaf a day.

2. Money Tree

Summer is also the peak growing season for money tree. At thirty years old, it is prone to yellowing leaves and leaf drop, but in summer it is very easy to care for. In summer, we put it in an environment with good ventilation.

Give it an appropriate amount of fertilizer. We all think money tree does not need fertilizer or watering to grow, but if we often fertilize money tree, its leaves will grow very broad and glossy green. When fertilizing, we should apply fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen and potassium.

Be sure to apply thin fertilizer frequently, because the root system of money tree is very underdeveloped. If the fertilizer is too concentrated, it can easily burn it.

When caring for money tree in summer, ventilation must be good. If ventilation is poor and we water too much, its root system will stagnate in the flowerpot and it will be very prone to root rot. So this ventilation, letting the air flow, is the best.

3. Jasmine

Jasmine, summer is the season when it grows like crazy. There is a saying that jasmine cannot be killed by sun. At this time, we need to care for jasmine well, and it can also become a flowering machine.

Watering must keep up. Put it in a well-ventilated environment and water it every day. Do not let the potting soil dry out. Water more. When the surface of the potting soil is dry, water it thoroughly directly.

Be sure to give it plenty of sun. Jasmine blooms more the more it is sunned. If there is insufficient light, it will become leggy at the nodes, bloom less, and the whole plant will look listless.

Fertilizing must keep up. Jasmine is a flowering plant and likes fertilizer mainly based on phosphorus and potassium. During the bud stage, apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Apply once every ten days, and stop fertilizing when the buds open. After flowering, apply more multi-element fertilizer to let it replenish the nutrients consumed by flowering.

After flowering, prune promptly. This way, jasmine will bloom batch after batch.

4. Gardenia

Now is exactly the period when gardenia grows, such as the common large-leaf gardenia. Its flowering period is in spring, and if cared for well, it will also bloom in autumn. Summer is exactly the time when it grows branches and leaves.

At this time, we must water more. Gardenia is a plant that likes water, so we should water it every day. Absolutely do not let it lack water. If it lacks water, the leaves will become wilted and yellow.

Be sure to give it sufficient light. Even placing it outside in strong sun is fine. As long as watering is sufficient, it will grow very fast even under strong sun.

At this time, when fertilizing, we should apply fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen and potassium to let it grow branches and leaves.

And prune and pinch appropriately to let the branches age. Only aged branches are flowering branches.

The hotter the weather, the more wildly pothos and gardenia grow. With this kind of watering and fertilizing, new leaves every day and flowers every day, do not be reluctant to water.
