Ficus Moclame Braided Care Guide
🌞 Light:
Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sun but avoid prolonged exposure to harsh afternoon rays.
💦 Watering:
Allow the top 3–5 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly, ensuring excess drains away to prevent root rot. Reduce watering in cooler months.
🌡 Temperature & Humidity:
Thrives in temperatures between 18–26°C. Prefers moderate to high humidity but adapts well to normal indoor conditions.
🌱 Soil & Repotting:
For optimal drainage and healthy roots, you can use our premixed Aroid Mix, or create your own mix using Barks Unlimited Potting Soil combined with Perlite. When repotting, consider using Bark Chips to enhance aeration. Repot every 2–3 years to refresh the soil.
🌿 Fertilizing:
Feed with a Controlled Release Fertilizer every six months for steady growth. For an organic option, use Terraplus Natura N monthly during the growing season.
🐜 Pests & Problems:
Watch for scale, mealybugs, and spider mites. Treat infestations early with insecticidal spray. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
✂️ Pruning:
Trim as needed to shape the plant and remove any yellowing or damaged leaves. Regular pruning encourages bushier growth.
