In general, the safe growth temperature range of succulent plants is 5-30 ℃. In this range, the lower the temperature is, the worse the temperature is, and the succulent plants are more likely to get out of the state. The principle is very simple, the comprehensive effect of anthocyanins, chlorophyll and carotene in the succulent body affects the external color performance of the succulent body. In general, anthocyanins and chlorophyll belong to the relationship between growth and decline. Within the growth range of succulent plants, the lower the temperature is, the more favorable the synthesis of anthocyanins is, and the higher the temperature is, the more favorable the synthesis of chlorophyll is. About 30 ℃ is the most suitable temperature for chlorophyll synthesis and anthocyanin degradation, which is why succulent plants lose their colors in summer.

Changing the color of succulent plants with light is the most common and the most effective. You can do a simple experiment, move a pot of succulent plants that have been kept indoors for a long time to a sunny windowsill, and you will find that the color of the leaves begins to change in a few days. Of course, it doesn't always turn red, because there are so many succulent varieties, each of which has its own characteristics and different colors. For example, with the increase of sunshine, the black mage will become black, the fire sacrifice will become fiery red, the rainbow jade brocade will become pink, and Huang Li will turn yellow.

Temperature plays an important role in the discoloration of succulent plants. The succulent plants placed indoors are generally at a relatively constant temperature, when the discoloration is relatively slow, and because the glass and screen windows block most of the ultraviolet rays, the color is very elegant, even evergreen. This is also the main reason why the succulent plants cultivated indoors are mainly green. So, you can try to let the plants slowly go outdoors, even if the small windowsill, for these mini succulent, the space and environment are good enough.

Succulent color, there are three elements: water control, light, temperature difference. These three points can be said to be indispensable, water control is the easiest to control, if the light is also very strong in summer, we all control why water is not easy to color in summer, which shows that water control and light are not the most important factors in coloring. Meat fades easily in summer because the temperature difference is small in summer. This can also correspond to why meat is best colored only in spring and autumn and early winter, so it is concluded that the temperature difference is the most critical issue in determining coloring, and lamps and lanterns are second only to auxiliaries, which can make succulent plants grow better at the same time. It also increases the probability percentage of coloring.

A flower friend asked, can succulent summer spray ice water to make temperature difference coloring? The answer is definitely no, the main factors of succulent discoloration are: light, temperature and so on. In autumn, the sunshine intensity will increase, and the ultraviolet intensity will also increase to the peak of the year. The intensity of ultraviolet light in the sun determines the degree of discoloration of succulent plants. Temperature also plays an important role in the discoloration of succulent plants, and the rapid discoloration at low temperature is mainly due to the synthesis of new anthocyanins.
