store water in room tempreture for few days. Wait until the port is fully dry.To test dryness, insert a banboo chopstik into the port, it should show no dirt when taking out. Water slowly, should not see water collected on the top of the port. let it settle for 10 minutes, water slowly again, until it comes out from the botton. Let water fully drain out before set the port back to where it belogns.

Water less, less frequently and let it dry before watering again. -polya(EasyWave); 2006-12-8 (#3366815@0)

If the soil is too old, replace it with porting soil, and trim older roots. Otherwise use florence light few hours a day. -polya(EasyWave); 2006-12-8 (#3366894@0)

给花浇水有个原则就是见干见湿（好像适用于绝大多数的花木）。在上面土壤干了后就得要浇水。先浇头遍，待到表层水已经渗下，而盆底还没有水流下的话，再浇二遍，直到有水流出，才算浇透。现在是冬天，暖气一开，空气容易干燥，想办法增加空气湿度，俺家用的是那种空气加湿器，喷出的水气是冷的。橡皮树是观叶植物，喜光，只是要避免正午强光直射。保持通风是以前老爸教的，忘记是为什么了，好像可以防虫害。以前俺家养橡皮树都是用那种大木桶，加拿大这边没见过。

俺也是在学习琢磨阶段，特别羡慕这边种满花卉的人家。 -misswindmill(生如夏花，死若秋叶); 2006-12-8 {310} (#3366981@0)
