A few years ago, I asked an old player in the succulent circle: how to fertilize succulent plants? Veteran players say that he is basically not a fertilizer, succulent origin is mostly in arid areas, the soil is poor, and have never heard of who is going to fertilize them. Root pruning every year is enough to grow by watering and a little fertilizer in the soil.

If someone else told me that, I would basically laugh it off, but look at this player's more than 10 years of flesh age and thousands of pots of treasures, whether you believe me or not.

In the past two years, we have also tried to root a very small number of meat (there are no human roots in the greenhouse), and we will find that the meat will grow better.

Of course, if you don't prune the roots, you don't necessarily die, but if you don't absorb it well, there will be deaths and injuries in extreme cases. The more common situation is that when the root system is not good, how to water the meat is a dry and shrunken dead appearance.

When should I fix the root? How do you fix it?

Usually the best time to repair roots is at the beginning of the growing period, which is why we post this article today. Spring and autumn growing season.

Usually, the root system of a plant is divided into straight root and whisker root, which is similar to the root of radish, with a main root, which grows around the main root, such as daffodils, and none of the stout main roots are all fine fibrous roots. Among succulent plants, at present, I have not seen the taproot and whisker root classifications announced by the authorities, but we usually observe that there are some similar ones, and we do not know whether they can be classified into these categories, but we can understand what kind of roots need to be trimmed anyway. (here I quote a picture from the encyclopedia)

Usually need to prune is the aging absorption of blocked roots, these roots have one thing in common is that the root center is no longer fleshy, either dry or seriously woody.
