Aglaonema Cutlass Plant Care Instructions
The Aglaonema Cutlass is an extremely easy-care plant, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced plant lovers. Follow these care tips to keep your Aglaonema Cutlass healthy and vibrant.
1. Light: The Aglaonema Cutlass is highly adaptable and thrives in low to medium indirect light. It can tolerate low-light conditions, making it perfect for offices or rooms with minimal natural sunlight. However, brighter indirect light will promote more robust growth and vibrant foliage. Avoid direct sunlight, as this can scorch its delicate leaves.
2. Watering: Water your Aglaonema Cutlass when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It prefers consistently moist soil, but be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. Make sure the pot has proper drainage, and always allow excess water to drain away to prevent soggy soil.
3. Humidity: Aglaonema plants enjoy moderate humidity, but they can tolerate average indoor humidity levels. If you notice the leaf tips browning, it could be a sign that the air is too dry. Misting the plant occasionally or placing it near a humidifier can help maintain the desired humidity level.
4. Temperature: This plant thrives in warm indoor temperatures ranging between 18°C to 27°C (65°F to 80°F). Keep it away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, and direct heat sources like radiators, as it is sensitive to cold temperatures below 15°C (59°F).
5. Fertilizing: Feed your Aglaonema Cutlass with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the cooler months when the plant’s growth slows. Organic fertilizers can also be used to promote healthy foliage.
6. Soil: The Aglaonema Cutlass does best in well-draining potting soil. A mix formulated for houseplants or a blend of peat moss and perlite will provide the perfect balance of moisture retention and drainage.
7. Pruning: Pruning is not usually necessary for the Aglaonema Cutlass, but you can trim any yellow or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking neat and healthy. Regularly wipe down the leaves to remove dust and enhance their natural sheen.
8. Pests and Diseases: While relatively pest-resistant, the Aglaonema Cutlass can occasionally attract spider mites or mealybugs. If pests are detected, clean the leaves with a damp cloth or treat the plant with a mild insecticidal soap. Proper watering and good air circulation can help prevent issues like root rot or leaf spot.
