Sunburned flesh is beautiful again.

My aunt had a new situation again. She told me that the succulent plant she had just moved out for a few days had sunburn and asked me what to do. Flower lovers in the north note that after a winter of indoor maintenance, succulent leaves will be relatively tender and particularly prone to sunburn, the same reason that flowers in a greenhouse suddenly move to the wild and die in the sun. (the flowers in the greenhouse are all delicate.)

If succulent plants move outdoors and get sunburned, don't be afraid. Here are two schemes for reference.

Plan one: do not pull the sunscreen, the secret is one word-endurance. (fight for succulent beauty from spring to late autumn.)

Mild sunburn can not be treated, healthy and strong succulent plants can slowly adjust to the new environment, and the newly grown leaves will not show sunburn.

However, severe sunburn can not be ignored, severe sunburn patients have to move back to indoor care! (especially Xiaomao, it is easy for Xiaomao to die if it is severely sunburned, so Xiaomao is advised to maintain it indoors until it grows up, and then consider exposure when the skin is solid. )

If the middle growing point of the leaf heart is sunburned, it needs to be removed manually to induce new buds, otherwise it will not grow well all the time-such as Huang Li, who is severely sunburned below.

Friendly reminder: sunburn is an irreversible process. Sunburned leaves can only be replaced by metabolism and cannot be recovered.

Under such a serious sunburn, the leaves dried at the bottom should not be broken off manually, because there is still a little water in the leaves that can be used for plant recovery and adjustment, and the leaves will fall off by themselves after they are completely dried up.

Option 2: pull the sunscreen (50% shade is enough), but only if the environment permits (large enough, safe space to install sunscreen). Under the protection of sunscreen, succulent newly grown leaves will not show sunburn. But the disadvantage is that it doesn't look so neat and beautiful.

My aunt said she was obsessive-compulsive and didn't want to look out of the window and see the dark sunscreen, so she chose option one.

Ps: just moved to outdoor cultivation, the outdoor environment is generally well ventilated, succulent plants may appear in a few days of leaf wrinkles lack of water performance, timely replenishment of water. Spring is the growing season for succulent plants, so water them boldly.
