How to raise the succulent leaves of fire offerings in summer (can you bask in the sun?) the causes and solutions of succulent leaves in fire offerings are not red

Fire Festival, is a very beautiful succulent plants, especially the red color is like a cluster of burning fire, very eye-catching. However, some flower friends raised fire offerings are not red, green, only a little pink at the edge of the leaves, why is this?

How much meat does the fire sacrifice have in summer?

That's right, fire festival is summer type, summer does not enter dormant period, so more sun is very good. However, high-rise rooms or closed balconies, or continuous high temperature environment, should pay attention to ventilation, appropriate shade at noon in summer, so as not to expose too much.

Causes and solutions of fleshy leaves not red in fire sacrifice

Reason:

Fire festival in the growth period of red and green, only in the water or dormant period when the color red or pink, that is, in late autumn to early spring day and night temperature difference is large, dry and cold, full sunshine leaves are easy to red. Therefore, the temperature difference between day and night in autumn is small, the light is insufficient, the watering is too much, and the fire sacrifice will not turn red.

Solution:

First of all, you have to understand that the fire sacrifice will only be very red under the joint action of dryness + low temperature + strong sun. It is difficult for the fire sacrifice in the seedling stage to turn red. During the growing season, the fire festival will turn green again, and it will grow wildly. It can be pruned and cut continuously. Within half a year, it will become a large pile.

Cultivate the root system: Cultivate the root system, the fire sacrifice can thrive, the body has stored a lot of water, and then slowly cut off water, each time a little less, until the final cut off water, and then the sun, the fire sacrifice will turn red.

Fertilization: Fire Festival is a horticultural variety, which likes warm, dry and sunny environments. Although plants can grow in semi-shade or shade, their leaves are not red. Usually do not water, fertilizer too much, especially nitrogen fertilizer can not be too much, otherwise it will cause excessive plant growth, leaf color is not red. To wait for the pot soil completely dry after watering, once a month to apply phosphorus and potassium-based thin fertilizer.

Fire Festival breeding methods

Fire sacrifice propagation generally has three ways of cuttage, plant division and sowing, mainly cuttage. Cuttings are divided into branches and leaves. Cuttings are branches sacrificed by fire. About 2 cm below can be buried in the soil. Keep the soil moderately moist. They can take root within a week. Leaf cuttings should be picked from petioles as complete as possible. They should be placed flat on the surface of loose pot soil to keep the soil moderately moist. They can take root from petioles within a week or two. Then new buds will grow and gradually grow into new plants. The advantage of branch cuttings is that they grow into new plants faster, while the advantage of leaf cuttings is that they have a high propagation coefficient, and each leaf can reproduce a new plant.

How to water the fire festival

1. If you want to know how to water the fire sacrifice, you must first understand its attributes and whether it needs watering. This plant cannot give too much water, as most meaty plants do, so it needs a good permeable soil and a very permeable growing environment for cultivation. Water should not be poured too much, the general method of determination is to observe whether the soil is dry, whether the leaves are withered, as long as the leaves are hard and not soft, and the soil is rich in moisture, do not water it, wait until it is dry before watering.

2, the general fire festival no matter in which season do not need too much water, like summer is basically do not water, directly with a simple spray bottle spray water is enough, wait until winter is less water, so that its leaves will be as red as fire.

3. This kind of plant can adopt the conventional method, that is, pour water directly into the flowerpot or sprinkle water slightly from the watering can. Today, I suggest a safer and simpler method, that is, prepare a washbasin and pour water. The water should not be too deep. Then put the fire sacrifice that needs water together with the flowerpot and plant into the washbasin. Slowly wait for the water to overflow. After about two quarters of an hour, see if there is humidity in the upper part of the soil. Moist can be taken out and placed in the original cultivation place to stand still. This method can effectively prevent the occurrence of excessive watering, and slow water absorption will not suddenly make the roots submerged, very conducive to operation.

To sum up, the reason why the fire festival is not red is mainly related to temperature and humidity. Generally, only under the strong sun will the fire festival become bright red, and it will usually be green! Therefore, this is a normal phenomenon. Many people have fleshy plant colors that change with different temperatures.
