Some novice friends may have such a problem: obviously their succulent plants have passed the service basin period, but why is it not long? A succulent plant that has been growing for many years, why does it stop growing during its growing season? Wait, who is it? Cough cough... Obviously these phenomena indicate that you should turn over the meat bowl and prune the roots.

If the meat just put on the pot still does not move after serving the pot period, it is necessary to turn over the pot to repair the roots again and remove the capillary dead roots that have been missed before; the succulent plants that have been put on the pot for many years will stop growing due to the powdering of the granular pot soil. At this time, it is also necessary to turn over the pot and clean up the normal dry and rotten parts of the roots. Moreover, proper root repair is easy to stimulate new roots of meat and flesh to rejuvenate growth.

After this pot of Nana Little Hook was removed from the pot, she realized that the root system was indeed not ideal. Look at these capillary roots. Most of them are dry.

Clean up all these dry roots. If you have patience, you can slowly repair it bit by bit with a knife. If you don't have patience, you can cut off 2/3 of the root system directly, or it's not impossible to pick up a few hands directly. Dead leaves should also be cleaned up to avoid hiding eggs.

Next up is the root cleansing. Soak the roots in clean water or carbendazim solution after pruning, which can greatly reduce the probability of pests on succulent plants. Of course, this process may be too time-consuming for those meat-rich friends. If it is not meat that has just been bought online, this link can also be omitted if you confirm that there are no pests.

But whether you wash the roots or not, the next step is very important. Put the succulent plant after pruning or washing roots in a ventilated and cool environment for 24 hours. Wait until the roots are dry and the wounds left by pruning shrink and heal. Remember not to go directly to the basin after root pruning. Remember! Remember!

The above are the root cultivation methods for most succulent plants, but there is a relatively special variety-Jingye, which is likely to carry a long lignified old root. Well, it looks like an old pile. If you cultivate the root according to the above method, you basically can't escape hanging up. So how should the silent night cultivate its roots?

First, remove a few layers of leaves at the bottom of the night. Don't be reluctant. The leaves removed can be used as leaf inserts. until fresh stems emerge.

Then, he directly cut off the ligneous part of the root. There was no need to feel bad because this part was useless.

After that, it is to dry the roots in a ventilated and cool environment until the wound dries and shrinks.

For rootless seedlings like this, it is best to root first with the method of inducing roots, and then the process of serving the pot will be much easier. For an introduction to the method of inducing roots, see:

If you don't use the root-inducing method to directly put it into the pot, you also need to dig a small pit in the middle of the pot soil, and then put the still night seedling on the surface of the pot soil on the pit, the root is close to but not in contact with the pot soil of the small pit, wait for the root to directly stick to the pot soil and grow normally.
