It depends on this maintenance method to make the leaves of succulent plants thicken and grow faster.

Many people think that enough water can promote the rapid growth of succulent plants, but it is not. Too much watering will lead to succulent plants growing taller, but not fatter. Only in the water control, let succulent have the feeling of lack of water, over time, will use their own water to grow, the leaves will naturally thicken up. However, this less watering should be moderate, not too dry, otherwise the leaves will become withered. General root system has grown succulent, the growing season once or twice a month watering can, each time thoroughly, in the morning or evening watering.

Therefore, we should properly control the water of succulent plants, so that it has a sense of crisis of lack of water. Over time, it will know how to use its own leaves to store water, and the leaves will be round and fat. It is usually enough to water thoroughly once every two weeks in autumn.

If you want succulent plants to grow stronger, in the succulent growth period, that is, the spring and autumn season, you need to apply more potash fertilizer, which can promote the growth of roots on the one hand and make the leaves fat and tender on the other. Large temperature difference is very conducive to the accumulation of nutrients in succulent plants. There is a large temperature difference between day and night, and succulent plants can fully absorb nutrients in the soil during the day. When the temperature is low at night, the material activity in the succulent body weakens and the nutrient loss decreases, so it can fully store the nutrients and naturally get fat. Therefore, you can leave the succulent plant outdoors at night. The temperature difference outside is relatively large. Just let it stay on the balcony in autumn. But if the temperature is too low in winter, you must move into the house, otherwise it will freeze.

Careful exposure to high temperature for a long time in summer, succulent plant tissue cell hypertrophy and slow heat dissipation, very easy to cause leaf sunburn. Sufficient sunshine in other seasons contributes to plant growth. There are many plants that need to be shaded, such as the soft leaves of the genus Reed, the genus Camellia of the Labiatae, and some species of the genus Compositae should be careful of sunburn. What should be done when succulent plants grow taller but not fatter? If it is too high, it can be beheaded and hung for a few days before it can be planted. Before that, the leaves on the pole can be inserted or kept, and a lot of small heads, or lateral buds, can grow on the pole.

The temperature of 15-28 °is the most suitable, and the temperature of 5-35 °is the plant tolerance limit (beyond the tolerance limit, it will enter the dormancy state). But there are also many succulent plants that have lower requirements for temperature. A large temperature difference between day and night is beneficial to the growth of succulent plants. Maintenance of succulent plants, ventilated environment is very important, sultry summer night to strengthen ventilation.
