As one of the important ways of reproduction of succulent plants, leaf insertion is a very magical method. First of all, we can break off the full and healthy leaves of succulent plants by breaking leaves, especially for beginners, if they want to raise new succulent plants themselves, they can also start with leaf insertion. Now let's take a look at the magic of nature.

First of all, we need to know that for the leaves that have just sprouted successfully, the supplement of water is far more important than the nutrients of fertilizer, especially when the leaves grow new roots, it is necessary to keep the basin soil moist. Of course, the speed of inserting meat from leaves still needs to be decided according to the culture environment and succulent varieties, generally between 10-30 days.

Of course, the preparation of soil media is also very important. I personally use the simplest proportioning method, peat soil 50%, coarse sand 25%, particles 25%. In this kind of soil, water conservation and looseness is the best, so the proportion of particles is not too large, which can also avoid the root system drying up as far as possible.

In particular, if the new roots are not planted in the soil, but directly exposed to the air, then they will soon dry up, which is the main reason why most leaves can not grow roots. Therefore, it is best to choose charcoal, coarse sand, perlite and so on. After all, if there are more particles, the permeability of the soil will be better.

The soil medium must be ready before the new meat is inserted in the leaves. After all, it is also a good choice to put it in the sun in advance.
