Sowing:

The seeding substrate is generally an artificial substrate prepared by mixing perlite: peat soil in a ratio of 3:1. Because the artificial substrate is rich in nutrients and loose soil, it is convenient for cultivation and management. When preparing the artificial matrix, the matrix can be disinfected with 800 times liquid of 75% chlorothalonil wettable powder.

Before sowing, fill the seedling tray with the substrate, and then use the spray nozzle to wet the substrate. The seeds of Coleus are small, so it is difficult to spread evenly when sowing directly. You can mix the seeds with fine soil before sowing. When sowing, pinch the seeds mixed with fine soil, and sprinkle the seeds together with the fine soil on the seedling tray. In general, 2-3 seeds are scattered in each hole. After the seeds are sown, they must be covered with soil to prevent them from drying out. For soil covering, use a sieve with fine soil to sieve soil on the surface of the plug. The thickness of the covering soil is 1-2 mm. After the soil covering is completed, the seedling tray can be placed on the seedling bed to germinate.

Cultivation Techniques

Soil: Potted Coleus requires sandy culture soil that is rich in humus, loose and fertile, and has good drainage and air permeability.

Watering: The water requirement of Coleus is to keep the pot soil and the environment often moist and moderate, avoid drought and prevent waterlogging, so as to prevent the leaves from dehydration and color loss and the root system to infect soft rot.

Sunlight: When the light is soft and sufficient, the color of the leaves of Coleus is bright and obvious, but avoid the roughness and loss of gloss on the leaf surface caused by direct sunlight in the sunny sky in midsummer. In the shaded environment, the leaf color is not bright.

Temperature: Coleus likes a warm and humid climate and fresh air. The indoor temperature is 20°C to 25°C in winter. The minimum overwintering temperature cannot be lower than 10°C. If the temperature is too low, the leaves turn yellow and fall off, and the plants die below 5°C.

Fertilizer: Coleus does not have high requirements for fertilizers. During the growing season, apply a thin fertilizer mainly nitrogen fertilizer 1-2 times a month.

Pruning: During the seedling stage of Coleus, the heart should be topped many times to promote the growth of side branches and make the plant full. After the flowers wither, you can keep some of the branches 2-3 nodes, and cut off the rest so that new branches can grow again.

Coleus maintenance method

1. Watering: likes to be moist, water enough in summer; if watering, according to the soil surface when slightly dry and then watering; in summer, water can be sprayed on the leaf surface to maintain a certain air humidity.

2. Fertilization: Phosphate fertilizer and general fertilizer for gardening can be applied to keep the leaves bright.

3. Soil: Loose and fertile soil is required.

4. Light: Likes sunshine, but in summer, it is necessary to avoid direct sunlight (it is recommended to keep it in a bright place).
