In summer, Cotyledon Tomentosa requires cooling measures. You can reduce the indoor temperature by means of air conditioning, and at the same time pay attention to sunscreen that can be transferred to the semi-shade environment. Cotyledon Tomentosa grows slowly in the summer, so water needs to be reduced. Follow the principle of seeing dry and seeing wet, and keep the soil in a dry environment. During this period, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied for a time to supplement nutrients for the plant and help the plant bud bloom.
How to raise cotyledon tomentosa in the summer is a skill. The high temperature in summer will affect the growth of Cotyledon Tomentosa, so it is necessary to timely reduce the temperature, and it is better to take corresponding cooling measures. The temperature can be kept below 30℃ while strengthening management. Cotyledon Tomentosa is best cooled by air conditioning to make it safe for the summer.
The light is also very strong in summer. If the shading treatment is not carried out in a timely manner, it will affect the flowering of Cotyledon Tomentosa breeding buds, and even the phenomenon of falling leaves. So it's better to put Cotyledon Tomentosa in a semi-shade to avoid bright light.
