Succulent plant pot paving. You think it's just for beauty? In fact, there are seven major benefits.

In fact, the reason why many friends are determined to raise succulent plants, in addition to the cute appearance of the meat, but also because of the wonderful scenery in the flowerpot. Unlike the dirty soil in the flowerpots of ordinary plants, in the flowerpots of succulent plants, in addition to the sprouting meat, there are clean and tidy pavements, and even more exquisite small houses, gravel roads, small blue lakes, and characters in cartoons. These elements make up a wonderful world of fairy tales.

However, after we really start raising meat, the gods often warn us not to insert anything in the flowerpot. The shop can only use deer marsh soil and red jade soil, otherwise poor ventilation will cause black rot. So, is this really the case?

In fact, if you are not sure whether the material used for the pavement is breathable enough, you can experiment on it yourself. Use two black square pots of the same size to fill the soil, one pavement and one unpaved surface, and then compare. Then compare and test the basin soil, you will find that the influence of the paving on the permeability of the basin soil is actually very small, and the air permeability of the basin soil mostly depends on the amount of granular soil. Let's put it this way, a basin of gravel soil dries much faster than a basin of unpaved peat soil.

So, since we also know that the shop floor is not as bad as we thought, let's take a look at the benefits of the flowerpot shop of succulent plants in addition to cleanliness and beauty.

1. Most of the pots where we grow succulent plants are made of lighter plants, which are relatively light in themselves. And because of the good permeability of drainage, the topsoil usually dries on the third day after watering, so the problem arises: when the wind is strong, the basin soil is blown everywhere immediately. As for the shop floor, it effectively prevents this problem.

2. When watering, the particles on the pavement can effectively reduce the surface tension of the basin soil and help the basin soil absorb water quickly. This may be more obscure literally, so let's put it another way: if you don't have a shop, you probably have a big pit washed out in some places during watering, while in some places, because the basin soil is too light, it will float on the water and wait for this part of the basin soil to be not even wet after watering. There is no such problem on the shop floor.

3. Effectively separate the bottom leaves of succulent plants from the wet basin soil, avoid direct contact with the basin soil, and reduce the probability of bacterial infection and decay.

4. Some of the old stakes of the stone lotus flower used to roll too many leaves, and a short stem may appear. When it comes to the pot, it is too ugly to expose the soil. Burying it in the soil will affect the stem and give rise to a small head. At this time, you can cover the stem of the meat from the root to the bottom leaf with a relatively light and breathable shop, which is not only beautiful, but also will not affect the stem hair.

5. There are also the kind of small old piles with top-heavy and light roots, which are difficult to stand on their own feet before the roots are cultivated in the pot. This can be paved with heavier materials to press the basin soil below and fix the roots of the meat.

6. Family-raised raw stone flowers are easy to grow, but they are ugly and can only be buried deep. But deep burying will rot, ah, at this time can also give stone flower pavement, both the tall stem buried, but also will not affect ventilation.

7. There is another unexpected effect: the prevention of cheap hands. Some novice florists like to pull out the meat from time to time to have a look, and the shop floor can prevent such cheap parties in a certain length.

So what should the paving stone pay attention to?

1. The type of paving stone is the real stone. It is paved with non-absorbent and non-dyed natural stones such as all kinds of broken gemstones and watercolor sand, which can effectively absorb condensed water to help basin soil replenish water in the environment of large temperature difference.

2. The particles of the pavement are larger than those of the basin soil as far as possible. In this way, even if you move the basin and change the soil, it will be very good to pick out the paving stone. But if you use paving materials such as Maifan stone, natural colored sand, zeolite or laterite, you don't have to choose.

3. The paving of small particles of red jade soil and deer marsh soil is very helpful to the seedlings of new succulent plants. The stem of the new seedling is very young, and some even grow in vain, so it will be better to use deer marsh soil to help the seedling stand.

4. Some friends say that the dry humidity of basin soil can be directly detected by using deer marsh soil or red jade soil pavement, but I feel that this method is unreliable. Because this method can only detect the dry and humidity of the surface of the basin soil, but the deep basin soil is impossible to know. But this method will let you know that the pot of meat forgot to water: -)
