The succulent plants are propagated by leaf insertion to achieve the effect of exploding pots and get a full harvest.

Friends who are familiar with succulent plants all know that they are extremely vigorous plants, and one of the manifestations is the extremely high success rate of cutting and the ability of reproduction. Whether it is a branch or a leaf, it can take root and breed smoothly as long as it is in a suitable environment. The best cutting time is Spring and Autumn, when rooting and sprouting is faster. That is, the use of succulent plant leaves to insert leaves to achieve the effect of pot explosion, such as succulent plant white peony, obscure moon, rainbow jade, blue stone lotus, purple pearl and so on, a full basin can be harvested in a short time.

First of all, is it difficult to insert succulent leaves? In fact, it is not as difficult as I thought. I often hear meat friends ask whether the leaves should be inserted in fluvo-aquic soil or dry soil. Does the leaf insert need watering? And often get the answer is not consistent, so they feel that the leaf insertion is very complicated, but in fact this is not the case. Usually, as long as it is a variety with a high success rate of leaf insertion, as long as the leaves are still healthy and full, and there is no black rot, water, and dry, they can wait until the time to root and sprout.

Leaf inserts are the first choice for general succulent goods, which are much easier to insert than expensive ones, because of their strong vitality, easy reproduction and high speed. It can be said that the success rate of succulent leaf insertion and the speed of rooting and sprouting are faster than expensive goods, and the reason why expensive goods are expensive is that it is difficult to breed or difficult to reproduce.

Are there any skills for leaf insertion? When breaking the leaves, pay attention to breaking before watering, reduce the possibility of injury, break off the leaves to dry for 2-3 days to heal the wound, so that the leaves can reduce the chance of black rot. Dry soil leaves are safer to insert, and tidal soil leaves should pay attention to ventilation. The way of leaf insertion can be flat or oblique, the former reduces contact with the soil to reduce infection, while the latter is convenient to take root and save time and effort.

After beheading succulent plants, a lot of small heads will burst out on the stakes, which is very suitable for group succulent plants. This method is also very suitable for dealing with overgrown succulent plants. The leaves after beheading can be used for leaf insertion, and the plants in the original pot can be used to sprout new buds. One succulent plant becomes one pot. Can also be planted in the same basin on several varieties of the same succulent plants, each succulent grow some lateral buds, and then add up, slowly accumulated together, naturally completed the explosion of the basin.

People have the impression that succulent plants are not resistant to the cold and are not easy to survive the winter. In order to prevent frost when the temperature is low, it is necessary to reduce the watering frequency. After less water, the concentration in succulent plants becomes higher and it is not easy to freeze. As in summer, control watering. In particular, cold-resistant varieties can not be watered at all. The leaves of cold-resistant varieties will fall and stop growing completely and go into dormancy. These varieties can be completely cut off by spring and wait for the new buds to recover. Must spend the winter indoors, put it by the lighted window and get as much sunshine as possible. The plants are kept a little away from the window at night to keep them from freezing.
