It's no use drinking pulse? It's succulent in autumn and winter, but it doesn't grow yet.

Meat friend A: why is it that your succulent flesh is always such a small sample?

Meat friend B: Hey! Succulent do not grow also do not appear, the method has been exhausted, even the pulse of drinking is useless! I'm so worried!

Through an advertising routine that we are familiar with, we have entered today's topic: why is it that succulent plants do not grow and do not appear in autumn? There is a kind of succulent succulent plant called other people's succulent plants. When it comes to autumn, all kinds of colors are full of vitality, and then look at their own stagnant green will inevitably be a little lost. It is not difficult to understand this matter, from the inside to the outside on several important points affecting the growth of succulent plants, one by one analysis will come to light! (recommended collection and sharing)

-varieties:

The varieties here should be seen from two dimensions, one is the distinction between winter type and summer type (the spring and autumn type is ignored), and the other is the distinction between healthy succulent species and drug succulent species. The former is determined by the physiological characteristics of plant characteristics, but most of the succulent species we can come into contact with still belong to winter types that grow dormant in summer and autumn. The second one needs to be talked about. We often hear meat friends complain that they can't raise succulent meat well, and some meat friends say that they grow well without paying much attention to succulent meat.

Through our long-term investigation and understanding, we can tell you that 99% of them will die after taking them home no matter how they are raised for a period of time. The problem is not you but that the succulent plants themselves are "drugged" succulent plants doomed to die! (it can be compared to a person whose resistance to antibiotics is not as high as that of natural growth anyway.)

I know that this remark may arouse the dissatisfaction of some people, and we don't want to have a hard time with anyone, but everything is based on the facts. Recently, we have taken goods from Yunnan (to ensure that succulent plants are healthy and have no problems) to carry out comparative experiments (the difference between using and not using), such as bursting sprouts, brocade potions, dwarf potions, and so on. Welcome your attention! In addition, please honestly grow succulent greenhouse owners in Chengdu, Sichuan Province to contact us!

-pests:

Diseases have decreased during this period, but pests are still rampant. There are scale insects, red spiders and root pink scale that are active in this season. There are two ways to deal with them. One is physical attack and the other is chemical attack. The so-called physical attack is stabbing with needles, clamping with tweezers and pinching with hands (although it feels disgusting but it is the most environmentally friendly way). Chemical attack is the use of medicine. The basic method is to protect the flower god. If the pest is already "immune" to the flower god, then some powerful pesticides should be considered (such as Jiebizhi, etc., but must be diluted to the safest concentration).

Firmly remove the leaves that have been eaten by pests and disinfect the wound (use carbendazim)

Note: if you are attacked by the root pink scale, I advise you to change the soil and change the basin. Compared with our experience with other meat friends, simply disinfecting the soil is difficult to get rid of them completely, and it takes time and energy! In addition, many meat friends can not distinguish between the white fine hair of the root and the root pink scale, so pick it up and shake it to see if it falls OK!

-Lighting:

Light can be said to be the "food and clothing parents" of plants. After summer dormancy, autumn and winter attract succulent plants to grow rapidly. Photosynthesis produces nutrients to supply plant growth (growth) and pigment synthesis (out of state). Therefore, the lack of light will weaken the first two physiological activities.

According to the different situation, it is divided into the lack of light caused by two factors: the region and the location. The former is caused by congenital conditions, while the latter can be changed artificially. If you encounter such a situation, how can you deal with it?

If your local lighting conditions are good for so long, move the succulent plants to places where you can bask in the sun (basically on balconies and windows), and if you are in a geographical location where the lighting conditions are poor, then you need to make up the light artificially. Use a special plant supplementary light (fluorescent lamp can not replace plant supplementary light, because plants have different spectral and brightness needs) to solve the problem. According to their own planting area to use supplementary lights on the OK!

-watering:

Do not be afraid of those meat lovers who have learned a painful lesson from stagnant water and succulent succulent plants in summer. They can basically feel at ease to water them boldly in autumn. One is that true bacterial infection is reduced in autumn and winter, and the other is that succulent plants are growing vigorously. The specific watering rule is to observe the wetness of the soil matrix. After feeling dry, the law of dry and thorough watering will apply at this time (→ _ → does not need to drink pulse so extravagantly at this time. Ordinary tap water will be fine.

It should also be warned that the leaves close to the substrate should not come into contact with the substrate, because a single amount of water on the substrate will come into contact with succulent leaves during watering.

Matrix:

There are two kinds of matrix atmosphere: organic matrix (providing nutrition) and inorganic matrix (root ventilation). In addition, the proportion of various components is adjusted with the growth stage of plants (seedlings, adult plants, old piles, etc.). Generally speaking, the older the plant is, the larger the proportion of coarse particles is, or even can be cultivated entirely with coarse particles!

We suggest that the substrate should be changed once a year (of course, the time point is in the spring and autumn season, the succulent growth is faster and less disease), because the nutrients in the substrate will disappear over time and need to be replenished, in addition, to prevent matrix hardening is not conducive to the growth of the root system! Pay attention to the teaching reference video basin that we will release later! )

About the importance of the matrix here to share a case: this year, some flower friends who bought the succulent greenhouse in Xichang should know that the shortage there was very serious some time ago. The friends in the succulent greenhouse over there told me that because the soil used by the manufacturers this year was not up to standard, they did not grow for several months and gave birth to a lot of worms, so they had no choice but to pull out the soil and replant the soil. After a month, the state and "height" were obviously much better! Xichang is close to Yunnan and has the same climate, but it is because of the problem of matrix that succulent plants are still unable to grow, so we can see how important the suitable substrate is to the growth of succulent plants. For those who have questions about the matrix, please pay attention to our matrix matching teaching video (including the introduction of two kinds of matrix and matching suggestions)

To sum up: according to the importance of the above factors affecting the growth and appearance of succulent plants in autumn, the order is as follows: variety > insect pests > light > watering > substrate, if your succulent plants do not grow or appear in autumn, then please check them one by one according to the above order to see what the problem is.

If you have any more questions about succulent growth, you can reply in the comments section, and we will reply one by one and choose a topic to explain the problems encountered by most people (anyway, come for free)!

Hard and wide attack: as a flower lover, in the vast expanse of Taohai, demons and ghosts revolt, and people are caught off guard by false appearances. Dear flower friends, have you developed your eyes and know the counterfeit goods? Identify false seeds? Have you ever fought a black-hearted businessman? If there is no flower couple willing to do the plant behind you 360, together on the road, here only provide valuable content and sympathetic feelings and reliable cost-effective horticultural products, nothing will happen here but safe and reliable.

After figuring out the reason why succulent plants don't grow and don't get out of the state, you have to prescribe the right medicine. These reliable tools can make you get twice the result with half the effort, and maybe one of them can save your succulent plant. → _ →:

Why ★ buy: sunlight can be the "food and clothing parents" of plants, especially when the light is insufficient in autumn and winter. However, it is not recommended to use daily lighting to not only plants, because different varieties of plants have different requirements for spectrum (which can be understood as color) and brightness. Generally speaking, plant supplementary lights can play an auxiliary role (at least not growing in vain and wearing skirts). The most direct way to get out of the state is to be exposed to sunlight! In addition: the irradiation area of a single supplementary lamp is limited, combined with their own environmental conditions according to the instructions to configure grass can achieve the ideal effect!

Why ★ buy: because most of the succulent plants bought online are de-soiled, you have to make your own proportioning matrix after getting it, and the matrix atmosphere, organic matrix and inorganic matrix have their own functions and effects in combination with actual conditions in order to get twice the result with half the effort. Several proportioning schemes are provided for reference: ground cultivation-10 parts of coarse sand + 2 parts of sawdust + 1 part of base fertilizer + 1 part of garden soil; 12 volumes-3 parts of pond foundation + 2 parts of fairy soil + 1 part of light material + 1 part of peat; raw stone flower-plant stone 8 parts + fairy soil 2 parts + a little shell powder.

Why ★ buy: coarse pottery flowerpots have innate advantages in air permeability and cost. Simple and elegant shapes and textures have elegant and simple beauty, which is very suitable for novice growers and meat friends who pursue simple style, but the premise is to use small-caliber flowerpots, remember!

Why ★ buy: the air permeability of purple sand is only second to that of rough pottery, but it has the delicate feeling that rough pottery does not have in beauty, and the smooth and warm surface will make people feel more peaceful after touching. It is precisely because of this that the price of purple sand flowerpots is more expensive than that of other materials, but it is worth thinking about it for the sake of beautiful succulent plants and beautiful mood.

Why ★ buy: for ordinary people, the succulent garden is the best location for the balcony, but the balcony at home is often used to dry clothes and pile up sundries, so you need it at this time. The flower rack outside the balcony guardrail will not only make the balcony look more beautiful, but also the best environment for the succulent it can give as a family!
