How to raise a smooth sailing plant? Breeding methods and precautions for a smooth sailing plant

The smooth sailing palm is also called white palm. It is an ornamental plant with emerald green leaves and elegant flowers. It is the best-selling indoor flower on the market. But how should you grow the smooth sailing palm after you buy it home? I will share with you the cultivation methods and the things you need to pay attention to during the cultivation period.

How to maintain smooth sailing

1. When you just buy the plant, you should first put it in an environment with scattered light to slow down the growth. And during the normal cultivation period, you need to repot it once every spring. When repotting, you should not only replace the new potting soil, but also trim its root system and remove all necrotic and rotten roots. After repotting, you should also put it in a cool environment for 5 to 7 days to slow down the growth before moving it to a suitable environment for cultivation.

2. Water and fertilizer are two important conditions for the cultivation of the smooth sailing plant. It is a plant that likes a humid environment. It should be watered frequently during cultivation to keep the soil moist, but water must not be allowed to accumulate in the pot for a long time, otherwise its leaves will turn yellow and the roots will rot. The smooth sailing plant is also a fertilizer-loving plant. It should be fertilized once a week when it enters the peak growth season. It is best to choose a thin liquid fertilizer.

Things to note when raising a smooth sailing

1. When cultivating the plant, you must be careful not to place it under strong light, because this plant likes a semi-shaded environment and its endogenous nature is relatively strong. When it is placed under strong light, its leaves will be burned and its flowering period will be affected.

2. When raising the smooth sailing plant, you must also pay attention to maintaining the air humidity in the breeding environment. It likes a humid environment. If the air in the breeding environment is too dry and the humidity is relatively low, it will affect its growth, and its newly grown leaves will become smaller and yellow. In severe cases, they will wither and fall off, which will significantly reduce the ornamental value of the smooth sailing plant.
