Many people enter the planting circle because of pots of soft and cute succulent plants. If you think about it carefully, it is true that succulent plants have indeed become people's new favorite in recent years, so succulent friends may know that summer is simply the hardest season for these "cute little girls". A little carelessness is likely to cause the death of the whole plant, and among the many issues worth paying attention to, the "watering problem" is definitely our greatest concern. So let's take a look at how to water succulent plants in summer.

Is the succulent plant going to run out of water in summer?

We will see this argument in many articles, in fact, this argument is not comprehensive, there are indeed succulent plants that completely cut off water in summer, but there are very few species, and most succulent plants will consciously go dormant after the beginning of summer. The amount of water needed for dormant succulent plants is not high, but it does not mean that they are completely isolated from water. After all, there is a big difference between "less watering" and "no watering". As a result, succulent plants need to be watered as long as they are not kept hot for several days.

Selection of time for watering succulent plants in summer

The first thing to pay attention to in summer watering is that it should never be watered in the afternoon when the sun is strongest. The best time can be after 7 p.m., and the southern region can move back appropriately. Why choose this time? The reason is that by this time the sun has basically set and the temperature has dropped a little, so if the succulent plant is watered, it will take a whole night to absorb water. Then why not choose the early morning? In fact, this is also the reason, because the morning is relatively short from the rise of the sun, the water is likely to evaporate instantly before it is absorbed.

The choice of water to use!

In fact, this is also a key point, many friends always hope to be able to add some trace elements to succulent plants in summer, so they often directly use milk and diluted nutrient solution as watering materials. In fact, this practice is completely wrong, because it is likely to cause soil mildew, pollute the soil and eventually infect succulent roots. The water used to water flowers is best to choose tap water that has been in the sun all day. Of course, Rain Water is also a good choice, but it should be noted that when it rains, it will be left in a place where the rain can be drenched for a moment to avoid waterlogging.

Is there a little trick for watering?

Don't say, there is! Many of us may find a problem when watering succulent plants, that is, the surface of the soil is completely wet, but the soil in the basin is still dry, which is actually a sign of soil consolidation and poor water absorption. A good solution is to "soak the basin" to water succulent plants from the bottom up. Soaking basin is actually letting succulent plants find water to drink on their own, and drink as much as you need, avoiding the situation that we water too much or less as soon as we water. At the same time, soaking the succulent plants in this way in summer allows the meat to continue to extend their roots, so that the next time they soak the basin, they can drink water quickly at the first time, thus having the effect of "rooting".
