Apricot succulent plant soil: apricot soil is similar to Sedum. If there are conditions, the proportion of coarse sand can be appropriately increased to give them a native soil condition. Generally use peat 20% + coarse sand 30% + particles 50%. Light stone is not only a kind of high-quality plant material for air permeability and water conservation, but also can effectively prevent soil consolidation, of course, good water absorption effect, but also ensure the water needed by plants.

You can choose the coarse sand in the river sand, the coarse sand will generally use a larger proportion, generally between 3-5mm is the most suitable, according to some experienced gods, the proportion of river sand accounts for more than 50%, the succulent effect is excellent (lower cost, but higher hardness). For succulent plant seedlings and leaves inserted succulent, in general, vermiculite culture soil is better, good water permeability, sufficient nutrients, succulent plants generally like light, put on the balcony bright ventilated place, especially drought-resistant less watering afraid of waterlogging.

Among the twelve volumes of mixed soil, in addition to 1-20% peat soil in the seedling stage of Yulu and Vientiane, Shou and Jade Fan, the soils used in Vientiane, Shou and Jade Fan are all grained soil, and the particles can be diverse. Generally use 3-5, the proportion can be 1:1:1, particles can not be large particles, the need for large and small particles mixed together. The smaller the seedling, the smaller the particles can be used. The particles can be laterite, green zeolite, heliolite, volcanic rock. Any one of them. But there are two things that must be added: carbon particles and slow-release fertilizers.

The cheapest and simplest soil matching scheme is undoubtedly coconut bran plus perlite, coconut bran bricks are all coconut bran bricks, and perlite is pretty much the same thing, so just find the cheapest one directly. when configured, the ratio of coconut bran to perlite is about 2:1 to 3:1, because perlite itself is not very strong, this ratio is breathable enough. If the ratio reaches 1:1, there will be a problem, perlite and coconut bran do not fit well enough, a large amount of perlite will float to the surface after watering.
