A little knowledge of succulent beginners makes you walk less. Are you ready?

First of all, let's find out what is a succulent plant. Generally refers to the plant has hypertrophic vegetative organs, this advantage is that although its leaves have degraded, but can store a lot of water, its species are also quite many, such as crassulaceae, pineapple, Liliaceae and so on.

As a novice in raising succulent plants, first of all, we should start with a simple one and choose some succulent plants that are easy to raise. Compared with each species, the succulent plants of crassulaceae are easier to raise. Then we should pay attention to the selection when buying succulent plants. In the process of selection, it is best to choose plants with well-developed roots and fibrous roots. Because it is so easy to feed, it will also send out new roots in a very short time. Of course, the appearance of the plant should also be good, if the color of the plant is abnormal, or there are other spots, it is best not to.

When cultivating succulent plants, we should pay attention to the treatment of succulent plants, soil and pots. We have to deal with the succulent plants that we just bought. If there are yellow leaves, remove them. If the plants are too wet, we can dry them in a cool place. We can find folds on the leaves. We don't have to worry too much. This may be the evaporation of water, and it will get better later.

After that, it is best to choose its special soil for succulent breeding for the first time, so that the survival rate is relatively high. There are two kinds of flowerpots: plastic pots and pottery pots. Because succulent plants need enough water, it is best to use plastic pots. Because plastic pots do not absorb water, they can keep moisture for longer. For the size of the flowerpot, it is best to choose a small and deep one, which is beneficial to the growth of the roots. Some novices want succulent plants to absorb enough nutrients after they have just been planted in flowerpots, so they fertilize them. This method is not advisable, because the roots of newly planted plants are not yet growing and it is completely difficult to absorb nutrients. And if the fertilizer is applied too much, it will lead to its death.

Temperature and light are also important factors affecting succulent growth. Many novices think that after planting, they can directly let succulent plants bask in the sun, which is wrong. Because in the case of imperfect roots, succulent sun exposure will lead to the loss of water in the body and eventually die. When it is in the growing period, it can be exposed to one or two hours of sunshine every day, but it is best not to do so in summer, because the succulent plant in this period is dormant, and the succulent plant in the dormant period will no longer absorb water. too high temperature will only make it dehydrated. The temperature is generally controlled above 10 ℃.

It is also common for succulent plants to suffer from pests, so it is necessary to spray him with some insecticides such as avermectin. If you do the above, I believe your succulent plant will be raised very well.
