Watering succulent plants is very fastidious, it is better to dry than wet, now it is hard to say that watering every few days, the climate is different in different places, some places are drier, some places are wetter, and it is difficult to grasp. A good way is to use a flowerpot with a tray at the bottom. The water in the tray is dry, which proves that the soil is basically dry. And wait until you see that the leaves are not so full before watering, which proves that there is a shortage of water. Of course, you are a genius, you can judge for yourself how much moisture the succulent plant needs, and it will be better to water it one more time.

The time for watering succulent plants is early morning in summer, sunny afternoon in winter, and watering in the morning and evening of spring and autumn. Under normal circumstances, do not sprinkle water from the top, watering must be enough, so you must often loosen the soil, so that the basin soil is easy to absorb enough water evenly. For the growing winter-type and intermediate-type plants, the basin soil should be kept moist without stagnant water, and the watering should be dry and thorough, neither stagnant water nor too dry. The summer type can be watered properly, but not too much. If there is a rainy day or a sudden drop in temperature, stop watering.

Scientific and rational watering, first learn to observe carefully and judge correctly. There are some succulent plants in the case of sun exposure or root decay, there will be dark red leaves, leaf tips and old leaves dry phenomenon, if watered, it is disadvantageous to succulent plants. While watering in the succulent growing season, you can spray water appropriately to increase air humidity. Spray water must be clean, do not contain any pollution or harmful substances, do not use hard water containing too much calcium and magnesium ions. Stop spraying water at low temperatures in winter to avoid freezing damage caused by excessive air humidity. The water temperature of watering should not be too low or too high, which is close to the indoor temperature.

The folded or softened leaves will basically recover immediately after watering, and will recover on the third day when it is slower. If it does not recover for a long time after watering, it must be that the root system is broken and the plant cannot absorb the dehydration caused by it. Sometimes the folds and softening of the leaves are not necessarily due to lack of water, which needs to be judged according to their usual watering time and recent weather conditions. Generally speaking, if there is a lack of water, the leaves will be full the next day if they are watered that night. However, if the state does not change for several days after watering, it needs to be paid attention to. This is usually the case that the root system of the plant has not grown, or the original root system has rotted.

Succulent plants lack of light, it is easy to grow, preferably all-day sunshine. Can not achieve this condition only frequent pruning, cut branches should not be wasted, can be used for re-cutting, cutting survived, can be an extra pot of succulent. The method is also relatively simple, that is, directly use granular soil cuttings, but to keep moist, spray twice a day, sooner or later is necessary, too dry, the branches are dehydrated and dry, they will not grow roots.

For flowerpots, the best breathable pottery pots are more suitable for succulent plants, because there is no waterlogged plants, even if it is dry, as long as the succulent plants do not die, the state will change after watering, which is very suitable for beginner lovers. But the pottery pot also has the disadvantage that the water volatilizes too quickly and the bottom of the flower does not hold water, which will slow down the growth rate of succulent plants. Because there is not enough water for the succulent plant to grow, the moisture evaporates before the succulent plant is fully absorbed. Especially in summer, many flower friends mistakenly think that red pottery pots are well breathable and the dry environment is very good for succulent plants, so they simply do not water them, resulting in the death of succulent dried plants.
