How does the butt flower of succulent plant blossom early?

Generally speaking, the growth of butt flower is relatively slow, from planting to flowering, it takes about 3-4 years, so what methods can speed up the flowering process when raising succulent plant butt flower?

1. Choose a potted plant

Butt flowers, like other succulent plants, are suitable for greenhouse planting, not suitable for open-air planting, so it is best to choose a suitable flowerpot for pot planting.

Flowerpots suitable for planting butt flowers are recommended:

(1) pottery basins

Red pottery basin, purple sand basin, handmade pottery basin and so on, the air permeability is good, so want to water more, more suitable for summer use.

(2) porcelain pots

White porcelain basin, glazed pottery basin, etc., poor air permeability, but good water retention, watering frequency will be much less, suitable for winter use.

Note that when raising butt flowers, it is not recommended to use plastic pots or iron pots, which can easily lead to overgrowth and water melting.

2. Temperature control

Butt flowers are suitable for growing between 15-30 ℃. Too low or too high temperature will lead to plant health problems, so it is important to control the ambient temperature in the process of breeding butt flowers.

3. Proper watering

Watering should be based on the air permeability of the flowerpot and the dryness and wetness of the soil. Like most succulent watering principles, do not dry, water thoroughly, and be careful not to water the meat on the buttocks.

4. Bask in the sun frequently

Buttocks like to bask in the sun very much. in addition to giving enough sunshine every day, they should be placed under the sun as soon as possible after each watering to promote growth.

5. Proper fertilization

If you want the butt flower to blossom early, you can apply thin liquid fertilizer once a month, and be careful not to apply too much fertilizer or too high concentration, which will easily backfire.

Second, what are the points for attention in planting succulent plant buttocks?

1. Do not plant small flowers in large pots.

If you buy a larger flowerpot, it is suggested that you can plant several more butt flowers in the flowerpot, otherwise the butt flower is easy to melt water and rot roots in the case of insufficient sunlight.

2. Don't water the butt flowers in winter

Butt flowers are dormant in winter and can be watered without watering. Watering will cause the roots and plants to rot slowly, which may not wait until next spring.

3. Autumn should be chosen for the change of buttocks.

Autumn is the best season for butt flowers to change pots. When changing pots, clean up the rotten or withered roots or molts, and then replace them with new culture soil.

In addition, it is emphasized here that when the butt flowers come from the molting stage, do not artificially intervene to "help" them peel off, but clean them up after they fall off naturally.
