Echeveria orange monroe
1. Basin selectionThe root system of Orange Monroe is not particularly developed, so there is no need for a large flowerpot. Generally, a flowerpot with similar leaf spread and pot opening is enough to better control water, reduce the risk of root rot, and make it easier to develop.The material of the flower pot can be selected as coarse ceramic pot, black square pot, or white square pot. These flower pots have good breathability and drainage, which is conducive to the growth of orange dew.There should be sufficient drainage holes at the bottom of the flowerpot to prevent waterlogging from causing the root system of Orange Monroe to rot.2. Soil mixingThe soil requirements for Orange Monroe are good breathability, good drainage, and moderate water retention. You can choose specialized succulent plant soil or prepare it yourself.If you want to prepare it yourself, you can prepare it in the following proportions: 40% of Maifanshi, perlite, and vermiculite each, and 20% of peat soil.If it is not purely exposed, but rather on the balcony or even indoors, it is recommended to use pure Maifanshi for control and maintenance, which can help Orange Monroe achieve the best state.If it is grown outdoors, it is best to add some peat soil to increase the soil's water retention and prevent the root system of orange dew from drying up during the summer heat.3. Upper pelvisThe potting time of Orange Monroe is generally in spring or autumn, and the temperature and humidity in these two seasons are more suitable for the growth of Orange Monroe.The steps for pouring the basin are as follows:Firstly, remove the orange dew from its original flowerpot and use scissors or knives to remove any remaining soil and yellowed leaves, taking care not to damage the stem and roots of the orange dew.Secondly, rinse the roots of Orange Monroe with clean water, then dry them in a cool and ventilated place, and wait for the roots to scab, which usually takes 2-3 days.Once again, rinse the new flowerpot with clean water, then lay a layer of wheat stone or ceramic particles at the bottom of the flowerpot to increase drainage, and then lay a layer of soil on top to compact.• Finally, put the orange Monroe in the flower pot, adjust the position, fill the soil around it, compact it, make the root of the orange Monroe contact the soil closely, and finally sprinkle a layer of wheat meal stone or other particles on the soil surface to beautify the appearance, and also prevent the soil from flying.3. WateringThe watering principle of Orange Monroe is "intensive cultivation and water control", which is to control the frequency and amount of watering reasonably, so that Orange Monroe can have a sense of crisis that may be lacking water at any time, and strive to store water to gain weight instead of growing taller and taller, in order to achieve the goal of gaining weight and beauty in the plant shape.The specific method is to slightly pinch both sides of the bottom blade each time, feeling slightly softer, and then pour it thoroughly.Additionally, it should be noted that the watering frequency of orange dew should be adjusted according to seasonal and climate changes. Generally speaking, spring and autumn are the growth periods of orange dew, and the frequency of watering can be slightly higher. In summer and winter, the frequency of watering should be reduced.Also, it is recommended to water on a sunny evening in summer and on a warm noon in winter.4. IlluminationLight is the best coloring agent for Orange Monroe. It requires sufficient light to maintain good growth and beautiful leaf color. The leaf color of Orange Monroe will change with the intensity of light and temperature. Insufficient light will make it green and elongated. Adequate light will make the plant round and full, and the leaf color bright.Generally speaking, Orange Monroe requires at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. If it is farmed indoors or on a balcony, supplementary lighting can be used to increase the light.However, Orange Monroe is also not resistant to direct sunlight, especially during high temperatures in summer. It is important to provide appropriate shade to prevent the leaves from being sunburned or fading.5. TemperatureThe most suitable temperature range for the growth of orange dew is 15-28 ℃. Within this temperature range, orange dew can grow normally. If the temperature is too high or too low, orange dew may experience slow growth, black rot water, or frostbite problems.Therefore, when the temperature exceeds 30 ℃ in summer, it is necessary to provide shade and cool down for Orange Monroe.When the temperature is below 5 ℃ in winter, keep it warm with Orange Monroe.In addition, the large temperature difference during the day and night can decompose the chlorophyll of Orange Monroe, making its leaves appear more pure and nearly translucent in a jelly like state, which is commonly referred to as "out of state".So as long as it's not extreme weather, if possible, try to expose and cultivate Orange Monroe to get the blessing of a large temperature difference, so as to get out of shape as soon as possible.6. VentilationOrange Monroe requires good ventilation conditions to maintain the cleanliness and health of its leaves.Ventilation can help Orange Monroe remove dust and water droplets from its leaves, prevent spots or decay, and regulate temperature and humidity to prevent excessive or insufficient temperature and humidity.There are many ways to ventilate, such as using an electric fan or opening windows to increase air circulation, or placing the orange dew in a well ventilated area such as a balcony, roof, garden, etc.However, ventilation should also be moderate to avoid excessive wind, which may cause the leaves of Orange Monroe to be blown off or injured.7. Diseases and pestsIf not properly maintained, Orange Monroe can also be affected by some pests and diseases, which can affect its growth and appearance.Common pests and diseases include the following:Red Spider: Red spider is a small mite that sucks on the leaves of orange dew, causing spots or yellowing on the leaves. In severe cases, it can lead to leaf shedding.Red spider usually operates in warm and dry environments, so it is important to increase humidity and ventilation to prevent the breeding of red spider.If signs of red spider are found, you can use soapy water or insecticide to spray orange dew, or use cotton swabs or toothpicks to remove the red spider.Scale shell insects: Scale shell insects will suck juice on the leaves and stems of orange dew, causing deformation or shrinkage of the leaves. In severe cases, it can lead to the death of orange dew.Scale insects generally operate in warm and humid environments, so it is important to reduce humidity and ventilation to prevent the breeding of scale insects.If signs of scale insects are found, alcohol or insecticide can be used to spray orange dew, or cotton swabs or toothpicks can be used to remove them.Black rot: Rot is a disease caused by fungi, which can cause symptoms of rotting on the leaves and stems of orange dew, causing the leaves to turn black or fall off. In severe cases, it can lead to the death of orange dew.Black rot generally occurs in environments such as high temperature and humidity, poor ventilation, etc. Therefore, attention should be paid to controlling temperature and humidity, maintaining ventilation, watering appropriately, and preventing the occurrence of decay.If signs of decay are found, it is recommended to immediately cut off the affected area with a clean blade, and then apply carbendazim to the wound to prevent infection.$4.58
