The maintenance of succulent plants in early autumn is more important than the high temperature in summer.

Autumn is coming, many green leafy plants begin to turn yellow and wither slowly, but succulent plants enter the best growth golden cycle, tenacious vitality, so that succulent plants grow more beautiful and moving in autumn. Most summer seed types can be placed outside, exposed to the sun, so that they can grow healthily, and become a beautiful succulent plant when they grow up. But the seedlings should not be exposed to direct sunlight in early autumn, it is best to put them in a place of astigmatism. Watering should see dry and wet: stagnant water in the soil and too dry are not conducive to the normal growth of plants, if the autumn rain continues to stop watering, and pay attention to drainage and waterlogging prevention.

Early autumn should pay more attention to avoid direct sunlight at noon, gradually extend the sun time of succulent plants, and give succulent plants a gradual adaptation process, in order to avoid surviving the summer succulent death in autumn. Autumn is also a season with high incidence of succulent plant diseases and insect pests. I have a lot of experience. Several Rosima trees I raised before got soot disease in early autumn, but they finally died. Ivory is also easy to take root, so autumn is very important for the pest control of succulent plants! In the northern region, watering should be controlled and fertilization should be stopped after October to enrich the stems and leaves of the plant and lay a good foundation for overwintering in the future. Due to the relatively warm climate in the south, the time of water control can be postponed to late October.

In the relatively cool northern regions, the spring and autumn succulent plants began to grow in late August, while in the southern regions, the growth was postponed to the first and middle of September. The initial growth rate was relatively slow, which could be properly watered, but not much, nor fertilized, so as to avoid rotting roots caused by excessive fertilizer and water. After the growth of the plant is restored, the succulent plants of the 12-volume genus of Liliaceae and Phellodendron which require higher air humidity can be sprayed to the plant in the morning and evening, or a transparent colorless beverage bottle cut off from the upper part of the plant can be covered to increase the air humidity. make the leaves fat and plump and beautiful in color.

One misconception that most people make about succulent plants is that they like to shine as much direct light as possible. However, this is not true. In the wild, many small species grow under the bushes. In addition, the stems of succulent plants, which I think are leaves, will be affected by direct light. Many plants reduce the area of the stem surface that is exposed to direct light. This phenomenon is due to the phototropism of plants. This reminds me of transplanting outdoor plants, when transplanting the same side of the plant facing the sun and giving it an extra 50% area of large shade until it fully takes the pot.

For succulent plants planted in mini flowerpots, it is necessary to appropriately increase the frequency of watering. Those meat lovers who love watering should stop. If you give them plenty of water every day, they will become lazy and unwilling to store water, so they will not get fat. It is also important to note that succulent plants planted in mini-pots are easier to control and easier to get out of shape. In other words, how much meat you want depends on the size of the basin you raise, and it doesn't grow as big as the succulent one raised in the thumb pot.

A ventilated air environment is the most basic condition for succulent farming, and as mentioned above, it is especially important at night. But succulent plants grow in a closed greenhouse, so it is very important to install fans to create a circulating air environment. This also means that most succulent plants do not survive well at desks and windowsills, although they are good interior decorations and may survive for a long time, but this is chronic death for plants.
