Indications of Low Temperature in Japanese stiltgrass

Symptoms

Japanese stiltgrass tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 68℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 32℉, while no immediate changes might be apparent in winter, there could be reduced or absent sprouting in spring.

Solutions

In springtime, eliminate any sections that have not germinated.

Indications of High Temperature in Japanese stiltgrass

Symptoms

In summer, Japanese stiltgrass should be kept below 86℉. When temperatures surpass 95℉, the plant's foliage might lighten, tend to curl, become prone to sun damage, and in extreme instances, the whole plant could wilt and desiccate.

Solutions

Remove the sun-scorched and dried-out portions. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the midday and afternoon sun, or deploy a shade cloth for cover. Irrigate the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
