How to take care Furcraea Foetida :
- Light and Temperature : This is a light loving plant and should be planted in an area where it can get plenty of sunlight. When grown outdoors, choose a spot that gets full sun to light shade. If you are planting it indoors, make sure it’s near an east-facing or west-facing window. Furcraea grows best in semi-humid environments and can tolerate temperatures as low as 25° degrees Fahrenheit.
- Watering and Feeding :Â The large root system in this plant makes it drought tolerant. Water it moderately during summers and the blooming season but after that, it requires only occasional watering. Be very careful not to overwater as it can be very damaging for the plant. To feed your Furcraea, use a controlled release fertilizer at the start of the growing season. Alternatively, you can use a diluted liquid solution.Keep in mind that younger plants will need a lesser concentration of nitrogen in their fertilizer while older plants will need a higher strength.
- Soil and Transplanting : Well-draining soil is a must for healthy growth. They usually prefer slightly acidic soil. When re potting your plant, make sure that you have a pot large enough to contain this massive plant as it can grow quite big. The soil should be absolutely dry before you plant. Make sure to take away any dead roots and knock off the old soil first.Once you’ve transplanted Mauritius hemp, give it at least a week before watering to avoid chances of root rot.
- Grooming and Maintenance :Â Furcraea is a self-sufficient plant. Under the right conditions, it does not require a lot of pampering.
