Summer high temperature is not good to judge whether succulent plants should be watered or not. Use these two methods to get succulent and fat.

Succulent plants, which are rarely watered, can take advantage of the rain to water Rain Water and water along the basin wall. Only in this way can the roots of succulent plants extend to places with water vapor, so that the longer they grow, the stronger they become. You may worry that watering succulent plants with too much humidity on rainy days will lead to succulent succulent problems. in fact, succulent succulent plants are not so delicate. Succulent plants, which have been dry for a long time, will only drink enough water after coming into contact with Rain Water, just like being exposed to the rain. There is basically no problem, and it is not often watered. Watering on rainy days has another advantage: it usually rains not only for one day, but when there is no sun the next day, it can avoid the muggy problem after watering succulent plants.

The watering time of succulent plants in summer is also very important, the time of watering is recommended to choose evening, evening, 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 in the leaves can be dried, at the same time, the water in the basin soil can spread more evenly, will also volatilize part, succulent plants are relatively safer. The plant is more active at night and can cope with the sudden increase in moisture. The bad thing about watering during the day is that the sun is already very large at eight or nine o'clock. Under the direct sunlight, some flowerpot walls are thinner, which can easily cause the pot soil to overheat.

Try to avoid stagnant water in the heart and axil of leaves, although after a night's blowing, most of them will dry, but if there are residues and happen to be exposed to the scorching sun, the residual water will become the main culprit of succulent leaves. If you find that your succulent middle foliage water falls or half of the leaf water falls, it is likely to be the relationship of stagnant water. Sometimes, watering less is for health, prolonging the watering cycle, and indirectly forcing succulent plants to strengthen the water retention capacity of leaves. Some succulent leaves, such as hibiscus snow lotus, have been fatter in the early stage, and even if they are not watered for a month or two, the plant will remain in good condition, but it is bound to lead to the dryness of the roots and affect the growth in the later stage.

Let's talk about the second watering method for succulent plants, which is to choose soaking pots. Let the water vapor seep up slowly from the bottom of the basin, so that the root of the fleshy plant is the first to come into contact with the water. in fact, this method is convenient and safe. we do not have to worry about the problem of stagnant water caused by too much watering. No matter which method you use to water indoor succulent plants, the most important thing after watering is to maintain ventilation and air convection, open windows as much as possible or use small fans to enhance air circulation, as long as it is well ventilated. only after watering the succulent plants will recover in the shortest possible time.

For the method of soaking the basin of succulent plants, you can put the potted flowers into a tray holding water or a shallow basin without holes, and let the water slowly seep into the basin from the bottom of the drainage hole at the bottom of the potted flowers until the topsoil on the basin is wet. In general, under normal maintenance conditions, half the depth of the sowing pot immersed in water, as long as 10-15 seconds is enough, do not see the surface soil moisture and then take it out. The more loose and breathable soil, the less time, because the siphon effect is strong. The advantage of this watering method is that it ensures that the upper part of the soil is drier than the lower part, and the roots are not easy to rot. It can also prevent the occurrence of "crust" phenomenon after the surface is too wet and dry. The sowing stage can be soaked until the soil is wet.

Succulent plants soak the basin will achieve very good results, this is a very important reason is that the soil, succulent plants are mainly good permeability of soil, such soil in the basin, water is easily absorbed, of course, excess water is also easy to flow out, this is thoroughly watered. For the soil with good permeability and permeability, the soaking basin can absorb water or excess water flow out very quickly, but if you make your own garden soil and add some cinders, this kind of soil has good water retention, so the soaking basin is likely to cause stagnant water because it has absorbed a lot of water.
