Crassula Ovata Plant

Crassula Ovata Plant Care Tips:

1. Light Requirements: Place your Crassula Ovata Plant in bright, indirect light. It thrives in sunlight but avoid harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf burn.
2. Watering: Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. In Indian climates, adjust frequency based on humidity and season; less in winter, more in summer.
3. Soil: Use well-draining soil with a mix of sand, perlite, and compost. This ensures good aeration and prevents waterlogging, crucial in India’s variable climate.
4. Humidity: Thrives in normal room humidity levels typical in India. Avoid excessive moisture around the leaves and soil to prevent fungal issues.
5. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop feeding in fall and winter.
6. Low Maintenance: Resilient and adaptable, the Jade Plant requires minimal care once established. Regular pruning promotes growth and maintains shape.
7. Air Purification: Known for its air-purifying properties, Crassula Ovata Plant helps improve indoor air quality by removing toxins like formaldehyde.
8. Non-Toxic: Safe for pets like cats and dogs. Although non-toxic, ingestion may cause mild gastrointestinal upset, so keep out of reach.
9. Pet-Friendly: Ideal for households with pets due to its non-toxic nature, adding greenery without posing risks to curious animals.
