DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Episcia cupreata prefers bright, indirect light and should be kept in a warm environment with high humidity. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. It thrives in moderate temperatures and should be protected from cold drafts. Regular misting can help maintain the humidity levels it prefers.
Bodem
This plant prefers a well-draining, loamy soil mix that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and vermiculite can provide the right balance of drainage and moisture retention. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom.
Kunstmest
Episcia cupreata benefits from regular feeding with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 formula. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season, reducing the frequency during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Verpotten
Repot Episcia cupreata every year or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and refresh the soil mix. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, being careful not to damage the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.
Voortplanting
Episcia cupreata can be propagated through stem cuttings or by dividing the plant. Take stem cuttings with at least two leaves and place them in water or moist soil until roots develop. Division can be done during repotting by carefully separating the plant into smaller sections, each with its own root system.
Snoeien
Pruning is beneficial for Episcia cupreata to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Trim back leggy stems and remove any dead or damaged leaves. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season as needed.
Toxiciteit
Episcia cupreata is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always a good practice to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.
