Succulent plant ramets have skills to teach you to plant easily and improve the survival rate.

Do you like succulent plants? Do you also raise a lot of small meat like me or are ready to start? in short, with time and our care, some succulent plants need to be beheaded, while others grow lateral buds on the mother plant, and when they grow up to a certain extent, they need ramets, so what are the points for attention? Let's have a look!

Ramet is the easiest and safest way to propagate succulent plants. As long as succulent plants with rosette foliage or community shape can be propagated through their sucking buds, walking stems, bulbs, tubers and plantlets, they can be reproduced when changing pots in spring. Of course, among the succulent plants, the varieties with spotted brocade, such as Phnom Penh tiger tail orchid, Wang Fei Lei Shenjin, never Night City brocade, green jade fan brocade and so on, must be propagated through branches in order to maintain the purity of their varieties.

For the ramet of succulent plants, as long as you break off the individuals who are about to be separated, keep part of the roots as far as possible, and then replant them, you don't even have to air the seedlings, and the time is as far as possible in the Spring and Autumn period. when planting, the tidal soil or dry soil is fine, the basin soil is not too wet, pay attention to ventilation, be careful of wound infection, and you can apply some fungicides to the wound under certain conditions.

Although the ramet seedlings will take part of the roots, but do not directly accept strong sunlight, can be placed in a bright no direct light ventilation, a week or so and then increase the amount of light, if there are signs of overgrowth, you can increase the light in advance. In order to reduce the damage to succulent roots, it is necessary to keep the basin soil dry before ramets, and the roots will become soft and not easy to break. Young ramets had better choose strong ones, so the survival rate is high.

In some succulent plants, many lateral buds are easily produced at the bottom of the stem, and then form small individuals, which can be taken out without soil removal and careful pulling, which not only breeds new individuals, but also creates a new growth environment for the lateral buds of old plants. Some are more closely connected, such as the yellow flower wave, it is no problem to pull it off directly, or use a knife to cut it and bring some roots.

In succulent plants, grafting is often used to breed varieties of brocade and ornamental plants. Such as Bawang whip as rootstock, grafting Chunfeng; horse tooth tree as rootstock, grafting elegant music dance; African overlord tree as rootstock, grafting African overlord tree decoration; big flower rhinoceros horn as rootstock, grafting purple dragon horn, etc., the ornamental effect is good. However, in the process of grafting, because the plant contains white emulsion, it is sticky. As a result, the grafting operation should strive to be fast and skilled in order to achieve success.

If you want to increase the number of this variety, or if the pot is too small to grow, you can consider that the ramet culture soil requires the soil to be loose and permeable, with good drainage, but has a certain water retention capacity, neutral or slightly acidic. Tall columnar species can be mixed with large grains of quartz sand to fix plants, transplanting and planting should generally be carried out in the recovery period just after plant dormancy.
