What is a computer baby and how do you grow one

What is a computer baby? Do you know, my friend? It is not some precious variety at all, just a common potted plant known as baby rubber plant (Peperomia obtusifolia). Sellers gave the baby rubber plant the gimmick of radiation protection and named it "computer baby." Today, let us take a look at how to grow it. Maybe you could keep one in your cubicle too.

How to grow a computer baby:

In fact, the computer baby is very easy to grow. Whether in soil or in water, it can be kept alive quite easily. The computer baby is suited to being cared for in a semi-shaded environment, that is, a bright indoor spot, though be careful about ventilation, and remember not to let it sit in direct sunlight, because it cannot tolerate high temperatures. Its optimum growing temperature is around 25°C, and of course the lowest temperature must not drop below 10°C. It likes fairly high air humidity and prefers loose, fertile, moist soil with good drainage (which is to say the soil can be kept damp).

Of course, sometimes gardeners will break off a branch of baby rubber plant and stick it in a cup; this works, and before long it will even root. That is enough to show how tough and easy to grow the baby rubber plant is. In fact, to grow baby rubber plant you only need to remember: first, do not expose it to sun; second, pay attention to ventilation; third, do not let it dry out. Then it is very easy to keep alive.
