Cultivation methods and precautions of Anthurium

Anthurium is also known as Anthurium and Anthurium. It has very bright colors and rich colors. Its leaves are shaped like bracts. So what are the cultivation methods and precautions of Anthurium? Let's take a look.

Cultivation methods of Anthurium

1. Control the room temperature

Anthurium prefers a warm, humid, well-ventilated environment. The most suitable temperature for Anthurium growth is 18℃ to 28℃, the highest should not exceed 35℃, and the lowest should not be lower than 14℃. In addition, it will cause frost damage if it is lower than 10℃. Cooling measures should be taken in summer, and the temperature should not be higher than 32℃. The temperature should not be lower than 14℃ in winter.

2. Maintain high air humidity

Anthurium needs an air humidity of no less than 50% to grow. To facilitate the growth of Anthurium, high temperature and high humidity must be maintained. The temperature should be around 20℃; when the temperature is higher than 28℃, spray can be used to increase the relative humidity of the Anthurium leaves and the room.

3. Control the light

Don't put too much light, or the leaves will change color, get burned or scorched. Because Anthurium is a shade-loving plant, it is best placed in a bright place with diffused light. Be careful not to place Anthurium in an environment with strong direct sunlight.

4. Water and fertilizer management should be appropriate

It is best to use tap water for anthurium. Fertilizer can be applied at the same time as watering. It is best to use compound fertilizer with a nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium ratio of 1:1:1. Fertilizer water should be applied once every 3 days in spring and autumn, and once every 2 days in summer. You can also directly use special fertilizer for anthurium.

5. The substrate should be loose when repotting

When repotting Anthurium, you can use a mixture of peat soil, leaf bran and perlite in a ratio of 3:2:1.

Anthurium cultivation precautions

1. Do not expose the anthurium grown in expanded clay hydroponic culture to direct sunlight and should place it in a cool place.

2. When you start hydroponics, do not add nutrient liquid to the water. It is best to add some rooting powder.

3. The container for growing anthurium should be slightly larger. It is best to be wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, in a V shape, and also have a certain height.

4. How long can Anthurium survive when grown in water? It can survive for a long time when grown in expanded clay water. I have been raising it for 2 years and it is producing leaves and flowers every year. I estimate it can survive for a long time.

5. If you want to hydroponically cultivate Anthurium, it is recommended to use ceramsite to induce it and then switch to pure hydroponics. It is not recommended to put it directly into water.
