Plenty of light: Copperweed needs plenty of sunlight to keep it in a sturdy state. Therefore, it should be placed in a sunny indoor location, such as a south-facing windowsill or balcony. If there is not enough light in the room, consider using an artificial light source to supplement the light.
Controlled watering: Coingrass has a high water requirement, but too much water can cause it to grow too fast and too high. Therefore, it is necessary to control the amount of watering and keep the soil moist. In the summer heat, you can increase the frequency of watering appropriately, but do not let the soil get too wet.
Suitable temperature: The suitable growth temperature is 18-25, and at the right temperature, the growth rate of the grass will slow down, which is conducive to maintaining a dwarf form. Therefore, in winter and summer, it is necessary to pay attention to adjusting the indoor temperature to avoid too high or too low temperature to affect the growth of copper coin grass.
Pruning and shaping: In order to control the height of the copper coin grass, it can be pruned and shaped appropriately. When pruning, you can cut off the parts that are too tall to promote the growth of side buds and make the overall shape more short. At the same time, pruning can also make the shape of the copper coin grass more beautiful and increase the ornamental value.
Fertilization management: To make the copper coin grass short and strong, it is necessary to control the amount of fertilizer. Too much fertilizer can make the coin grow too fast and too high. Therefore, during the growth period, proper fertilization can be applied, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, to promote the growth of leaves. However, be careful not to over-fertilize to avoid fertilizer damage.
Pest control: Copper coin grass is susceptible to pests and diseases, such as aphids, red spiders, etc. If pests and diseases are found, control measures should be taken in a timely manner, such as spraying pesticides or using biological control methods. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain indoor air circulation to increase the disease resistance of copper coin grass.
In short, in order to make the copper coat short and strong indoors, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light, control the amount of watering, maintain a suitable temperature, properly prune and shape, control the amount of fertilizer, and do a good job in pest control. Only in this way can the copper coin grass grow healthy and strong, and maintain its short and strong form.
