Why can't you raise immortal succulent plants like other people's? That's the type you can't control.

Most of the articles before the exquisite life are about some basic knowledge of succulent plants, to put it bluntly, how to feed succulent plants first. So today, on the basis of feeding, let's discuss how to raise it well. Everyone has different views on what good breeding is, but what most people think is that the stems of meat are stout, while the leaves are small, tight and bright, which is what we often call "immortals".

So how can we make succulent plants "immortal"? it is to control the growth of meat at will, so that its nutrients can be stored as full as possible, which is the so-called "control type".

Many people think that type control is water control, but in fact, it is only half right. The first step of type control is to cultivate roots first. Here is the result of root system and water supply to meat in the same environment:

When the root system is not good and there is little water supply, the succulent plants will become withered, and the leaves will gradually dry up from the bottom (the leaves of the normal growth bottom will also slowly dry up). This is because succulent plants are consuming their own nutrients to maintain their growth.

The root system is not good, and when there is too much water supply, succulent plants will root and grow quickly.

When the roots are good and the water supply is abundant, the succulent plants will grow crazily (close to overgrowth).

With good roots and small water supply, succulent plants will protect themselves, shrink their leaves and move closer to the middle, slowly forming a sturdy stem and small and full leaves.

As can be seen from the above, the step of type control is to grow roots first and then control water. When the roots are well cultivated, succulent plants can withstand abuse only if they have a healthy foundation; if they do not even have a basic level of health, they will be half dead and will not be able to withstand abuse.

So how do succulent plants grow roots? Repair the root before taking the basin, wash the root to dry the root on the basin, here no longer repeat, small exquisite life before the article has a special introduction, let's start with the basin.

It has always been said that watering should be dry and thoroughly watered, but here we need to talk about some exceptions. On the 3rd-5th day after the fleshy soil is put on the basin, a small circle of water can be poured along the basin wall, which is the same as the reason that the quiet water induces the root to find water, and then irrigate once a week to find water. With good ventilation, its root system will grow crazily in the basin soil, while the outside scene is that the leaf heart turns green-the leaf opens-the leaf grows. At this time, the meat may show a slight phenomenon of overgrowth, don't worry.

After that, we need to look at the state of water supply, that is, what we often call "water control". As mentioned in the previous rookie article, when the penultimate layer of succulent plants softens, the meat begins to run out of water and can be watered. However, note that watering is OK at this time, but if you want the meat to reach the "immortal" state we mentioned at the beginning of the article, you can bear it again and wait until the whole succulent plant is slightly shrunk and then watered thoroughly. In this way, form a habit, the goal of type control will be achieved.

During the watering cycle, the watering method can be occasionally interspersed with water to induce roots, that is, watering along the basin wall, occasionally this watering will make the roots of the meat expand around and become stronger.

Then with plenty of light, good ventilation and large temperature difference, your dream of fresh meat will come out!

By the way, there is another big premise, that is, you are patient enough.

Small exquisite life collation release, hope to be helpful to you.
