How to judge the health status of succulent plants from their appearance?

The growth state of succulent plants is the issue that beginners are most concerned about. They feel that succulent plants are not growing well. They simply want to dig them up or ask them why you are swollen. In fact, from the fullness of succulent leaves and the growth state of succulent leaf centers, color and growth can judge the health of succulent plants, and understanding some small knowledge of succulent plants is conducive to the beginning of succulent maintenance.

one

Leaf fold

It is very important to observe the succulent leaves. A lot of information can be seen from the succulent leaves that the cuttings below must be short of water, but the condition has not recovered 2-3 days after watering. In this way, it can be concluded that the root system has not grown well, and when there are not many roots, the meat absorption will be very poor, even if there is enough water in the soil. At this time, you can further analyze your own soil, and if there is no problem, then wait!

There must be no skepticism to pull out the meat to check, the meat growth is relatively slow, so the recovery speed will be very slow, like this cutting state of bad meat, after 3 months or so will change, of course, the temperature must exceed 15 degrees, otherwise the recovery time will be longer.

Growth information

In the picture below, the green leaf in the center of the Black Prince is a growth message, indicating that the meat has begun to grow and has plenty of water, so it can be done without watering in a short time, and then continue to observe and judge what to do according to the latest situation of the meat.

Color judgment state

The following situation is very strange. The velvet needle with different states in the same basin was still green on the left side last fall, while the one on the right side remained very beautiful red all the time.

Red is not a healthy color. After entering winter, the green meat still keeps full and grows slowly, while the red one goes into dormancy and recovers. After the color fades, it becomes very ugly. However, if you look carefully (picture), you will find that there is still green in the center of the velvet needle leaf, so you don't need to be nervous.

Keep waiting! It will get better when it is warm in spring!

There are many reasons for this, although planted in the same flowerpot, daily maintenance is the same. But the difference in the health of the plant itself makes a big difference, just as a healthy child and a sick child live in the same room.

Apprenticeship-growth

There are many different states about overgrowth, but generally speaking, overgrowth shows that plants are still growing normally, which is much healthier than flesh that does not grow and folds in leaves. Overgrowth should only be considered sub-health.

The sunset and Fuji in the following two pictures show obvious overgrowth, the reason for this is too much water, but this is not a bad phenomenon, as long as there is enough sunshine at home, increase the sunshine time in the later maintenance, and keep watering, the meat will get fatter.

Do not think that this is a bad growth, and stop watering, because at this time the meat is in the growing period, at this time, if the water is cut off, it will slow down the growth, and it will be more difficult to make the meat fat.

five

Apprenticeship-styling

The rainbow jade in the picture below is the most common. There are generally two treatment schemes: blue X is to break the leaves and red is to cut the cuttings.

Choosing to break leaves and leaves can keep the meat growing in this state, and in the later stage it will become the so-called "old pile". The way of red cutting is what we often do-the part of reproduction and cutting can be replanted after drying the wound, and at the same time, many new branches will emerge from the cutting position, and there will be more and more branches in the later stage, which can appropriately reduce the amount of water and prolong the watering interval. At the same time, increase the sunshine time, if it is warm enough outside, move outdoors to feel the breath of nature! It will recover soon.

Does not belong to apprentices.

In the picture below, the species of white peony does not belong to overgrowth, oh, we must not misunderstand that the longer the plant is, the longer the plant is, and it is normal for the plant to grow longer and longer. only plants that do not grow will have problems!

Basically, this is an old pile, if you want to shape alone, you can dig out a single piece, break off some of the bottom leaves, and match them with your favorite flowerpot, so you can match a perfect small pot of succulent plants!
