What is good for succulent flowerpot bottom pad? Put this stone on, it won't rot for years.

A flower friend asked that there are many succulent plants, but do not know what to pad at the bottom of the flowerpot, the purpose of padding something at the bottom of the flowerpot is to increase the air permeability and water permeability of the flowerpot, generally using some large particles of solids, such as light stone, ceramsite, cinder and so on, of course, there are also some flowerpots with some plastic baffles, all for the same purpose, in order to increase water permeability and prevent stagnant water in the pot. Therefore, flower friends do not have to stick to what to use, as long as the goal can be achieved.

Do flowerpots of succulent plants need to be punched? There can be no holes in the bottom of the flowerpot, but those who need flowers can grasp the amount of watering. If you can make sure that there is no stagnant water, it is OK to have no holes. In fact, it is very difficult to do, so no matter it is a master or a novice, they will buy flowerpots with holes, and they have to punch their own holes without holes.

Pot punching method for succulent plants: the first step: tuck the towel into the bottom of the flowerpot. The second step is to turn the bench upside down and buckle the container on the stool leg. The third step is to hold the pliers and the nails in one hand and the hammer in the other, and then knock hard until the hole is punched. If you use a ceramic container, soak the container overnight, then tuck the towel into the container, buckle the container upside down on the cushion, hold the nail with pliers in one hand, and punch the hole in the other.

Flowerpots with holes are planted with succulent plants, and it is also convenient to change pots. Pots without bottom holes can only be dug out of the top when changing pots. Whether you shovel loose soil and dig it out first, or lift the plants out, it will do more harm to the plants. But if the flowerpot has a bottom hole, you can take a stick thick with chopsticks, top the soil to the outside, and shovel it loose, hold the plant outward, and do less harm to the plant.

If you don't drill a hole, you should pay great attention to water control. Succulent is still very easy to raise, winter morning and evening temperature difference, succulent beautiful color will come out, in fact, put succulent plants in a ventilated place on it; drainage can be the first choice of the bottom of the container with holes, if you do not want to miss the beautiful non-porous flowers, you can put a layer of well-drained light stone or even cinder, foam and so on at the bottom of the non-porous container, and pour out the excess water every time.

As long as the soil is breathable and water is poured on it, the feeling of water coming out of the bottom hole of the basin a few seconds later is like having a drink of cold water without scruples on a hot day. But if there is no bottom hole in the flowerpot, you need to be careful in watering. Without water, the root can not reach the bottom, the root is not suitable to stretch downwards, and more water is accumulated at the bottom. The root system has been held in the mud, which is easy to suffocate.
