If it is in early spring, watering succulent plants generally depends on the size of the basin. The first water supply is a small amount on the edge of the basin, generally watering in a corner of the basin, the bottom of the basin should not flow water, if the basin is too small, the water supply basically let the upper half of the soil have water is enough, after watering, and so the soil is naturally dry, during which the second water supply period can be extended.

Because the first water supply, let the weak root slightly have a little moisture, the new root will slowly send out after the first water supply, because the new root, although there is no water in the soil, but their roots will firmly grasp all the substances that can absorb water, when the second water supply is more than the first water, the new root system will be easier to absorb water, dry again, can be watered through.

What do we need to pay attention to in winter maintenance of succulent plants? The growth of succulent plants becomes slow in winter, and some summer type species even go dormant. Most of them have limited ability to endure low temperatures, and it is urgent to get sunny indoor windows. Plants have weak transpiration capacity in winter and soil water evaporates slowly, so be sure to reduce the amount of water and frequency. Branch cuttings and leaf cuttings, if there is no temperature guarantee, should wait until next spring.

As for the culture medium, as long as it is breathable and absorbent, if the soil is like peat soil, it is a good choice. There are imported red jade soil, deer marsh soil and other rotten leaves can also achieve the effect of mud carbon. Generally do not take soaking basin, soaking basin is not easy to grasp, when there are many plants is also a large workload, or watering is better to control, generally 3 times of water supply after the plant can enter the normal growth water supply period.

The most suitable temperature for succulent plant growth is about 15 °- 28 °, so spring and autumn are the most exuberant seasons for succulent plant growth. Although many succulent plants grow in desert areas, not all succulent plants can survive in extreme temperatures.

In terms of species, summer-type cacti and Euphorbiaceae can withstand slightly higher temperatures, while winter-type species such as Amygdaceae and some Sedum need to pay attention to ventilation and cooling in summer. Therefore, when shopping, it is best to confirm to the seller whether the meat bought is winter type or summer type, which is conducive to later maintenance.
