Succulent plants encounter these conditions, reduce watering, but can gain weight

When raising succulent plants in summer, we must control the water, and never water too much, because it is stuffy and hot in summer, and there is often a big sun after a thunderstorm. Not only the leaves are covered with water droplets, they will burn as soon as they are exposed to the sun, but also the damp soil is stuffy and hot. The root system can't stand it. Very easy to black rot, so, in summer to give succulent shade, but also to cut off water, and beware of rain and water. I only watered twice in three months this summer, and none of them died. The time of watering is evening and evening, which is the best choice. the current temperature will not be too high. After a night of ventilation, not only some of the water droplets accidentally left on the leaves can be dried, but at the same time, the water in the basin soil can spread more evenly. Will also volatilize part, succulent plants are relatively safer.

Although the temperature is very high in summer, the relative humidity is also very high. For some soils that are not very permeable (such as garden soil, soil with a large proportion of sand), the surface of the soil seems to be dry, but it may still be wet inside, especially in the south. Watering frequency is too high, easy to lead to long-term dampness of the roots, and finally weak, so the permeability of the soil is very important. This is why the high proportion of granular soil is becoming more and more mainstream. If you are not sure when to water, it is also a safe choice to wait for the plant to be wrapped up and the leaves slightly wrinkled before watering, but note that in this case, do not water thoroughly unless it is particularly sturdy and succulent. A small amount of water can be watered along the edge of the basin every three or four days until the plant recovers.

How and how much should succulent plants be watered in summer? A small amount of water can be supplied along the basin without pouring through, allowing the water to spread in the medium by itself. If the temperature in summer is about 30 ℃, the environment is well ventilated, the plant material is breathable, and the flowerpot is breathable, then direct watering is not a big problem. You can also choose the quick soaking method, which is filled with water in that plastic pot or foam box. The height of the water is about the average height of the flowerpot. Putting the flowerpot in the pot for a few seconds or more is enough to ensure that the necessary moisture for succulent plants can be given without worrying about watering too much. The disadvantage is that it takes too much time, and in case there is a pot of succulent plants with root powder, and germs, it is equivalent to manually helping to infect the plant.

It is also necessary to reduce the watering of succulent plants in winter, basically once a month. The same is true in winter, watering once a month, a small amount each time! Water at noon with the sun, the water temperature is about the same as the room temperature, or the root system can't stand it if it's not too cold! Do not water below 5 degrees, keep the basin soil dry above minus 3 degrees, in the south, you can spend the winter outdoors! The premise is that the basin soil must be kept dry, otherwise if the basin soil is wet, it will freeze and frostbite to 0 degrees.

Succulent plants in winter, as long as the leaves are found to be wrinkled or softened, there is no doubt that they are short of water and need to be watered immediately. Under normal circumstances, the fullness can be restored in 3-5 days (12 volumes of jade dew is slower, probably more than 10 days). If the plant is still not full after continuous watering, it means that the root system must be bad, or the soil plate makes it impossible for water to seep into the soil. Need to dig up the soil and check the root system. When there is too little watering and the light intensity is still very high, there will also be a situation that accelerates the consumption of the leaves below the plant.

Junior enthusiasts can supply water according to the state of the plant and the dryness of the soil. the words are simple, and the specific operation is relatively fastidious. Sedum plants with normal growth can generally be observed through their leaves, if the soil surface is dry again, the leaves are also slightly wrinkled in the normal growth, showing that they are not energetic, so they can basically supply water at this time.
