Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Suitable soil formula can greatly improve the germination rate of succulent plant sowing. Here are three soil formulations suitable for succulent plant sowing. I hope I can give you some reference.

Sowing and soil allocation of succulent plants

Option 1: 1 part of peat soil, 1 part of vermiculite (1-3 mm), 1 part of perlite (1-3 mm), mixed according to the 2:1:1 method.

This method is super simple, super money-saving, super easy to use, and has been verified by countless people.

Scheme 2: 1 part of peat soil and 1 part of honeycomb furnace ash (1-3 mm), mixed according to 1:1.

The point of this method is: Super money-saving, super simple, what is more excruciating is that there are not many briquettes now, and if you find honeycomb ash, you have to crush it yourself, sift it with a sieve and soak it yourself.

Scheme 3: peat soil, rice husk charcoal, vermiculite (1-3 mm), perlite (1-3 mm), red jade soil (1-3 mm). Mix according to 3-1-1-1-1-1.

The configuration of this method is simple, the cost is a little more expensive than method 2, and the practical emergence rate and method 2 are almost the same. the only difference with method 2 is that I feel better psychologically. after all, I used a little advanced plant material in my soil. after all, I added rice husk charcoal rich in nutrition to my soil.

In fact, a little attentive flower friend will notice that either way, the ratio of soil to particles is 1:1. You can try to adjust it according to the ratio of soil to particles at 6:4 and the ratio at 4:6. As for the popular Japanese plant materials such as goldstone, paulownia sand, sunny stone and so on, you will know after using them, but it doesn't matter whether you use them. It is better to use coconut bran, river sand, volcanic stone, Maifan stone, charcoal particles and blue stone.

Soil disinfection of succulent plants

No matter what kind of soil formula it is, it is recommended that you mix the soil with a small amount of water, then put it in a fresh bag, do not cut it, put it in the microwave oven and microwave for 10 minutes at high temperature. This can effectively kill eggs, grass seeds and bacteria in the soil. This is much better than soaking with carbendazim and other drugs.
