Soil

Australian fir has high requirements for soil. It is necessary to choose soil with good drainage, which is especially good for the roots, so that the roots will not be very wet and rotten roots will appear. Then choose slightly acidic sandy soil. Generally, when potting, we will mix garden soil, rotten leaf soil and peat moss to prepare it, and then form a good matrix to meet the needs of roots and survive better

Watering

When Australian fir changes from spring to autumn, you should remember to water more, but remember that there can be no ponding in the basin. Under the condition of high temperature and dry weather, spray water on the plants in the basin and the ground near it to reduce the temperature and increase the humidity. Watering must be timely. Don't wait until the soil is very dry. At the end of autumn, slowly reduce the amount of watering to enhance its cold resistance

Illumination

Australian fir prefers diffuse light, so it is more suitable to be placed in a brighter place in the shed. If you put it in the dark for a long time, you should move it to the sun every few weeks. Proper illumination can keep the leaves thick green and good gloss

Temperature

Its growing season is relatively long. Except when the temperature exceeds 32 ° in summer, other temperatures can grow all year round

Fertilization

In the growing season, additional fertilization should be carried out every two weeks, and the compound fertilizer containing nitrogen and potassium is the most appropriate. If the fertilizer supply is insufficient, the leaves will turn yellow

Pest control

The disease and insect damage of Sequoia chinensis is very few. When we raise it indoors, we often encounter scale insects to hurt it. At this time, we can use appropriate chemicals and an appropriate amount of water to spray regularly to kill these insects
