A beautiful succulent plant

In the process of growing succulent plants, the old leaves below either age, wrinkle and dry, or rot too close to the potted soil.

Increase ventilation and ventilation

The dry leaves and rotten leaves under the succulent plants will affect the ventilation and permeability of the basin soil and roots, which can easily cause rotten leaves or black rot in the roots after a long period of time. Unbelieving friends can peel off the succulent dried leaves the next day after watering. Often the surface of the potted soil is already a little dry, but the rotten leaves are still very wet, which is especially conducive to the reproduction of bacteria.

The old succulent leaves turn yellow and are infected with black rot by bacteria.

Increase growth

The old leaves of succulent plants are still consuming nutrients and water when they turn yellow. If the old leaves are not cleaned up in time, they will affect the growth of succulent plants and make them grow slowly. After getting rid of the yellowing dry leaves, the succulent plants are refreshing and can grow well even in summer.

Explode new buds

Clean up the yellow and dried leaves at the bottom of the succulent plant in time, and it is easy to burst new buds from the place where the leaves were grown. Especially those varieties that do not like to sprout, take off the leaves below and explode. This is because there are bud spots in the original place where the leaves grow. After the dried leaves are torn off, the ventilation and light are good, so it is easy to stimulate new buds to emerge! This is a small shortcut to turn succulent into an old pile. If you don't rip off the leaves, only the leaves will grow. If the leaves are removed, the new buds will burst. The new buds will grow much more, and the original pile will be the old pile.
