In summer, succulent plants use a simple operation on the soil to rub all over the basin.

In summer, succulent plants are in humid, muggy environments, such as greenhouses. It is recommended to use a dust-free medium with good permeability, which helps to eliminate stagnant water and make the root hair fully in contact with gas. Due to the high humidity of the environment, it is not necessary to worry about the dryness of root hair, but should pay more attention to the flow and exchange of gas. It is recommended that red jade soil, granular peat, perlite, rice husk carbon, light stone, the proportion of soil is 4, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2. Of course, you can also choose the soil that has been prepared for horticulture.

You can also prepare the mixed soil of coconut bran, peat soil and perlite into the small holes of honeycomb coal to grow succulent plants and use honeycomb coal to raise succulent plants, which can not only permeate water and air and prevent rotting roots, but also contain a variety of trace elements in cinder to replenish succulent nutrients. Our common cinder can also be used to maintain succulent plants. Cinder is calcined at high temperature, so it can be used as granular soil and contains some trace elements. Although it is good for cinder to raise succulent plants, if you don't have cinder there, it is difficult to find it, so we'd better use it to raise peat soil and perlite. At present, most greenhouse production in China adopts this soil allocation method. It is mainly convenient for management, convenient for material collection and labor saving.

Cacti and succulent plants usually prefer warmth and large diurnal temperature differences. Except for epiphytic cactus and 12-volume species, the light should be adequate, but soft. For this reason, except for a few flat stem nodes, tall columnar species and some tequila plants, they should be cultivated in the greenhouse all the year round. Epiphytic types should be shaded except in winter and cooled in summer. The succulent plants growing in summer can basically adjust the temperature with reference to terrestrial cacti. Their requirements for light are relatively low, and some species with expanded stem bases are not cold-resistant and should maintain a higher temperature in winter.

If you want to raise a lot of succulent plants in summer, maintaining indoor ventilation and air convection is a very important factor. Air convection can reduce the gathering of bacteria, and water can also be carried away by convective air flow without causing a humid environment. In addition, it can also lower the temperature of our ground, which is very effective for the growth of plants. You can put a small fan next to the succulent plant to increase the speed of air flow. In the environment of ventilation and low humidity, such as balcony and windowsill. Advocate the use of soil containing fibrous peat and water-retaining medium, do not remove dust, because these dust particles are the best attachment of root hairs, after removal, it is easy to cause root hairs to dry up, and plants can not grow well in the repeated rooting process of circulation.

Which pot is better to raise succulent plants? Generally, the most common plants for planting succulent plants are pottery pots, plastic pots and porcelain pots. The selection of pots involves many factors: field weather conditions, watering habits, soil allocation, succulent varieties, and breeding sites. In terms of air permeability and water permeability, pottery basin has the best air permeability and water permeability, which should be the first choice, followed by plastic basin, and then porcelain basin with holes. Pottery pots can be used for those who like to be watered frequently, and plastic pots that do not like watering.

In fact, it can also be selected according to the quality of the soil, if more peat with pottery basin, more granular soil with plastic, porcelain basin. Nowadays, many people like to raise succulent plants in the open. To sum up, the first choice of succulent plants should also be pottery pots. Personally, I think porcelain basin is a better choice to a certain extent, because porcelain basin has the following advantages: beauty, moisturizing, heat preservation, as long as you pay attention to watering. In addition, novices had better not use earthen pots to cultivate succulent plants, because the workmanship of earthen pots is too poor, the basin is impervious, and it is expensive, which is not conducive to the growth of succulent plants, so you can choose the appropriate size of flowerpots according to the succulent plants you plant.
