If your succulent plant survives the height of summer and dies in the Beginning of Autumn 99%, it's because you ignored these things.

The Beginning of Autumn, but the battle for meat is far from over. From today on, our focus of conservation also needs to be changed.

After the Beginning of Autumn, after a period of time, the friends in Beijing will usher in a cool day. I am not very familiar with the climate in the south, but I should develop for the better.

After holding back all summer, there are many plans waiting to be implemented, such as changing pots, changing soil, sowing seeds, inserting leaves, watering, and all kinds of buying.

After spending a few summers with meat, if I am not careful at the beginning of autumn, the casualty rate may suddenly increase, so this article focuses on some of my experiences, as well as the experience of some meat friends around me.

The first thing to be careful about is watering after the beginning of autumn.

Many friends control or even cut off the water of meat in summer, of course, there are normal watering, each has its own methods.

For those who control or cut off water, it is recommended that they should not be watered immediately after the first or two watering, and the amount of water should be gradually restored to give the meat roots an adaptive cycle so as not to increase the chances of hydration.

Second, pay attention to sunshade

In summer, many friends pulled up the sunshade net, and the meat spent a month or two in the shade. During this time, the meat door has adapted to the environment without direct sunlight.

If the sunshade net is suddenly removed and the autumn sun is not as gentle as we thought, sunburn will easily occur at this time.

It is recommended that you remove the sunshade net step by step, such as gradually reducing the time of pulling the net every day, or only when the sun is strongest at noon.

Third, change the basin and soil later, it will be easier to root.

Among the various factors that affect the hairy roots, I have always felt that climate is the most important, while watering and soil allocation are relatively minor.

Although it is already the Beginning of Autumn, the climate is still hot and humid. It is better to change the basin and change the soil when the highest temperature is stable below 30 degrees. You can also take the opportunity to trim the roots and dry them before planting. With reasonable watering and soil, we can lay a good foundation for meat.

If you can wait until the highest temperature is about 25 degrees and the lowest temperature at night is more than ten degrees, it will be much easier to get to the root.

In fact, meat does not necessarily have to change soil and change pots every year, if it grows well and all aspects are satisfied, then there is no need to change it. If the pot is too small, or the root system is not growing well, or dislike the pot is not good-looking, then consider changing it.

Pay attention to the weather forecast, especially the 15-day forecast

Although the weather forecast is not very accurate, the 15-day forecast can see the trend of the climate and help us to judge whether the good day for succulent plants is really coming. Ha, only when the temperature really continues to drop, can we think that the summer is over.

Be careful against insects

Recently, some friends reported that scale insects began to increase. I remember that scale insects broke out one year, when the temperature dropped slightly after the Beginning of Autumn.

Later, I checked some information and found that scale insects are also afraid of heat, and when it is hottest in summer, people also reduce their activities. When it is a little cooler, they will be happy, come out for dinner, and begin to have children.

So at this time, I suggest that we should prescribe medicine on the one hand, and observe more, especially under the leaves, turn it up and have a look at the bottom of the old pile pole, sometimes there will be surprises.

If you find scale insects, there is no need to worry. My old method, the medicine for prevention and the medicine for killing it, will not be a big problem. For example, spray scale shell ling and other killing drugs, at the same time under the DX to prevent recurrence.

Clean up the withered leaves in time

A summer has passed, the hands are not diligent may have saved a lot of dried leaves in the basin, it is time to clean up, the temperature and humidity are not really reduced, if the dried leaves are stuffed up, the meat may have an accident.

There is a principle for pulling dry leaves, that is, only those dried leaves that come down at a touch, if they are not completely dry, will leave relatively large wounds on the meat and increase the risk of infection.

Be careful to pick leaves and insert them

This one happens to be combined with the last one to say that if the leaves are inserted, the leaves must not be completely dry, but relatively full leaves. After such leaves come down, they will leave relatively large wounds on the flesh, increasing the chance of infection in this season, so be careful.

And now the budding rate of leaves has not yet returned to a very high level, and the leaves are relatively easy to dissolve, so we should be more careful.

8. If you have nothing to do, you can match the soil.

We can now do some basic work, such as soil allocation. On the one hand, you can prepare for the coming good days, on the other hand, you can have something to do to avoid debt, .

Have been using the finished soil can study the method of soil distribution, buy a variety of media, sieve soil, mix.

Friends who make their own soil can try to improve it to see what media have become popular this year and take the opportunity to test how effective it is. Most of the time, what is popular is the hype of merchants, and sometimes it does have a certain effect.

9. Open your eyes when buying meat in the days to come

In summer, many businesses also suffer losses, and some old stakes get sick or even rot. After summer, many merchants have branches cut off from sick old stakes, which may be sold as small old stakes.

When people buy meat, they should be careful about the meat that obviously has no roots, which is cut off soon after. Some obviously look like a branch, and it is best not to buy this kind of meat for the time being.

Buy the essence that does not sell, no matter which field is the same, because the resource information we and the seller have is completely asymmetric, sometimes we really have to choose honest and reputable merchants.

Don't buy too much meat before winter

In winter, the outdoor temperature will drop below 0 degrees, or even below 5 degrees below zero. At this time, many of our meat friends have to choose to move meat into the house for the winter.

The problem is that outside, we may have made flower racks or other facilities outside the balcony, which can hold a lot of meat.

But in winter, there is no room in the house, so it has to be placed on multi-storey shelves. in this case, the lighting and ventilation of meat have become a problem. So in front of this, please pay attention to control the amount of meat in the coming good days.

To sum up, we may be tired of saying so much first. In fact, the core meaning is not to worry, adhere to a period of time, our flesh will have a good day.
