3. Humidity: This plant thrives in higher humidity levels. Regularly mist the leaves or use a humidity tray to provide adequate moisture. In drier climates, a humidifier can be beneficial.
4. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water less frequently during the winter months when growth slows down.
5. Soil: Use well-draining potting mix with a mix of peat moss, perlite, and organic matter. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal.
6. Container: Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from pooling at the bottom, which can lead to root rot.
7. Fertilizing: Feed your Ficus Triangularis ‘Green’ plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half-strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or eliminate fertilization during the dormant winter months.
8. Pruning: Prune your plant to maintain its shape and remove any dead or yellowing leaves. This encourages new growth and helps maintain its compact form.
9. Pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids. If you notice any infestations, treat them promptly with neem oil or insecticidal soap.
10. Repotting: Repot your Ficus Triangularis ‘Green’ plant when it becomes root-bound, usually every 2-3 years. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one.
