To give up feeding succulent plants, he wants to pursue more advanced secret books of raising meat.

We are too careful to take care of succulent plants, because we have a very urgent heart, expecting them to become chubby, pink, tender and cute at once.

But as time goes by, the flesh becomes ugly day by day, farther and farther away from the succulent God!

Therefore, the elder sister suggests that we might as well starve them!

Generally speaking, if you want to fatten the succulent plant, you need to start from these four points:

1, root cultivation; 2, water control; 3, ensuring light; 4, ensuring nutrition.

Before we are hungry and succulent, the first thing we should do is to "grow roots".

Whether succulent plants can grow well or not has a lot to do with whether the roots are well developed or not.

The root is weak, no matter how to maintain the plant will not grow well.

Therefore, when raising succulent plants, we should be more concerned about whether the roots grow well or not.

Succulent roots are not well developed.

Soil is easy to be stiff if its viscosity is too high or its permeability is poor.

The root won't take root.

So,

Succulent soil had better have a certain grain size.

Generally speaking, small seedlings have more granular soil, while larger seedlings have less granular soil.

Because the stem system of the seedling is weak, the granular soil is easier for it to grow.

On the other hand, the demand for water of large seedlings becomes larger, and the water storage of granular soil is poor.

Why can succulent meat become chubby paper after a few hungry meals?

Succulent plants must grow as tall as they want under suitable conditions.

If you starve it for a few meals, it will form a sense of crisis due to lack of food and drink.

When he is fed again, he will quickly store energy and dare not to grow taller.

So, this is one of the reasons why they can become round paper!

For succulent plants, hunger means controlling water.

Water control is very important for succulent plants to gain weight.

No matter how good the root culture is, it is not good to control the water.

The water has many leaves and broad leaves, but it grows tall quickly.

The leaves are thick and compact with less water, and the development width does not develop the height.

Its leaves are like SpongeBob, which can only absorb more water and bulge when it is short of water.

Then store the water for use in case of drought.

Only in this way, the leaves will be fat.

If it is watered regularly, it will not feel lack of water.

And it won't suck up a lot of water at a time.

But raising succulent plants can't be dry for too long.

If the drought lasts too long, it is easy to hurt the roots and leaves.

How much water control needs to be explored by yourself.

Time for succulent watering: in the evening or evening.

During the succulent growth period, the stomata close during the day and begin to absorb water in the evening.

It was watered during the day and dried at night.

At this time, the meat will be short of water, and the meat will be starving!

It is not possible to control the water only, but also to ensure enough light.

There are some succulent plants, even if you control the water very well, they grow as long as you can without light.

Only with light can photosynthesis be carried out and various nutrients needed for succulent growth can be synthesized.

Lack of light and insufficient photosynthesis will naturally lead to apprenticeship.

Raise succulent plants in winter and spring and autumn, let succulent plants bask in the sun as much as possible, and properly shade them in summer.

Especially in autumn, basking in the sun can not only make succulent plants fat, but also make succulent succulent plants more beautiful!
