How to raise succulent plants in autumn

Watering in autumn needs to be cautious. In summer, many people control or even cut off water for succulent plants. Of course, there are also normal watering. For succulent plants with controlled or cut-off water, it is recommended that they should not be watered immediately after the first one or two watering, and the amount of water should be gradually restored to give the succulent roots an adaptive cycle so as not to increase the chances of hydration.

Root cultivation: whether succulent plants can grow well or not has a lot to do with the well-developed roots. When the roots are developed, the plants will naturally grow well. The root is weak, no matter how to maintain the plant can not grow well. Therefore, when raising succulent plants, we should be more concerned about whether the roots grow well or not.

So how to raise the root of a lot of meat? The root system of succulent plant is not very developed, and the soil is too viscous or poor in water and air permeability, and it is easy to be stiff, so it can not take root. So the soil that raises succulent plants had better have certain granularity. Generally speaking, small seedlings have more granular soil, while larger seedlings have less granular soil. Because the stem system of the seedling is weak, the granular soil is easier for it to grow. On the other hand, the demand for water of large seedlings becomes larger, and the water storage of granular soil is poor.

Change the pot for the succulent plant in autumn, and throw away the used old soil directly? The old soil can be used, but it is best not to use it directly and to deal with it properly. The potted soil where plants have been planted will leave the remaining roots, germs and eggs of the last plant. The nutrition of the original soil that has been watered for a long time is also lost. The key drawback is that the particles in the medium are crushed, which affects ventilation and drainage, which will cause the root system of the new plant to be unable to extend or rot and die.

Because the old soil of flower friends is different, some are peat, some are garden soil, some are mixed media of their own, some are flowers and plants that are not easy to grow insects, some are flowers and plants that are prone to insects, and so on. So flower friends should appropriately adjust whether the old soil should be used according to their own actual situation, for example, some flower friends grow rose, rose has nodule disease, then the old soil should be thrown away. Because by basking in the sun, it is impossible to thoroughly clean up the germs with a little antivirus.

Therefore, it is suggested that flower friends, the soil without germs, we can re-use, if there are some difficult to remove germs of the history of the soil, we had better not re-use.
