How to raise the succulent plants of Silver Star and burst the pot quickly?

Basin soil: change the basin every spring, using a mixture of peat soil, culture soil and coarse sand, plus a small amount of bone powder. During the growing season in spring and summer, the basin soil remains moist.

Fertilization: fertilize once a month, or use special succulent fertilizer. When dormant in summer, stop fertilizing and the basin soil is slightly dry.

Leaf disk: blossoms in spring and summer, the scape is drawn from the center of the rosette leaf disk, and the leaf disk gradually withered and died after flowering. In order to protect the leaf disc, it is necessary to cut off the bolting in time.

Methods and matters needing attention of succulent culture in Yinxing

Culture methods:

1. Soil. Yinxing can be planted with peat mixed perlite and cinder soil, and the surface is covered with clean river sand, which can isolate the contact between the plant and the soil surface and make it more breathable.

2. Watering. Silver star watering is to follow the principle of dry and thorough watering, watering is dry before watering, do not water. There should be little or no water supply in summer. Do not spray or flood in winter. Spring and autumn growth period dry thoroughly, keep properly dry, can be watered once a week.

3. Light. Silver stars like to have plenty of sunshine. When the plant is dormant for a short time at high temperature in summer, it should be shaded properly at this time. Spring, autumn and early summer are the main growth periods of the plant, which can be given sufficient light.

4. Fertilization. Yinxing can be fertilized once a month. When dormant at high temperature in summer, stop fertilizing and the basin soil is slightly dry.

Matters needing attention

1. Methods of reproduction. The propagation of Silver Star can be done by cutting all the year round, preferably in spring and autumn. When cutting, you can cut a lotus or a leaf. Ventilation is critical, usually well ventilated, not easy to cause insect pests. Change the basin every spring.

2, when watering in winter, do not pour in the center of the leaf, it is easy to cause the leaf to rot, but it can be cleaned at ordinary times.

The breeding method of Silver Star

1. Cutting

Silver stars can generally be propagated by cutting. Yinxing cuttage propagation time is all year round, of course, the best propagation is in spring and autumn, because this time is the growing period of succulent plants, Yinxing is growing well, the leaves are more full, and the survival rate of cuttings is relatively high. The rosette-shaped top branch can be used for silver star cuttings. Take this part off and insert it into the prepared soil. Keep the temperature at 20-24 ℃ and usually take root 15-20 days after insertion.

2. Leaf cutting. Silver stars can also be propagated by leaf insertion. Select thick leaves, cut off the mature fleshy leaves at the base, put the wound in a cool and ventilated place to dry, lie down and obliquely insert it into the prepared soil, keep the soil slightly moist, generally about 10 days after insertion, adventitious roots and plantlets can grow from the leaf base, and then you can transplant.

3. Ramet. The silver star can also be propagated by ramet. Yinxing ramet propagation can use the lateral buds at the base of the plant, the new buds that grow from the remaining stem roots after decapitation, or group ramet.

Water Management of Silver Star

Succulent plants such as silver stars are very sensitive to water, and uneven watering or too much watering can cause decay. Basically, these succulent plants are watered according to the principle of being dry and thoroughly watered.

When watering the silver star, you should water it once and then water it a second time after the basin soil is dry. If it is not good to pour through, you can immerse it, put the whole basin into the water, and the water surface does not exceed the edge of the basin, until the basin soil is all wet.

Silver stars avoid wet water, so when it is hot and rainy in summer, the water should be cut off gradually. When the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, there will be less water. The temperature dropped in autumn and slowly resumed watering.

In winter, due to the low temperature, watering may cause Yinxing frostbite, which is not conducive to the winter, but it can not completely cut off the water and lose moisture, the growth liquid of Yinxing will be affected, so it can be watered properly. The recovery of temperature in spring can return to normal watering.

Water can be watered once a week during the main growing periods in spring, autumn and early summer.

Silver Star likes dry and warm nostalgia, especially in a sunny environment, but it is not suitable to be exposed to the sun, preferably in a semi-overcast place. At the same time, Yinxing succulent is not hardy, so we must pay attention to a warmer place in winter, and Yinxing is drought-resistant, so we don't need to pour a lot of water!
