Beheading process

Tools: Scissors, small flower pot with soil

step:

Choose sturdy succulents that need to be beheaded.

Choose the right position to cut and make the cut smooth.

Place the cut part in a dry place and avoid getting the wound dirty.

Place the cut parts in a ventilated place and wait for the wound to heal.

After the wound has healed, bury the cut part in another pot of soil for maintenance.

Place the two pots of succulents in bright light to recover.

After about 20 to 30 days, new shoots will grow on the sides of the mother plant's stem.

The beheading was successful, and one plant became two.

Beheading Tips

Succulents with compact leaves can be cut from the bottom and top third.

It is best to choose sharp scissors or knives for cutting to facilitate quick cutting and smooth cuts.

After cutting, the wound side of the succulent plant must not be exposed to sand or water. Once it is contaminated, it needs to be wiped clean with a paper towel immediately.

During the rooting process of succulents, avoid direct sunlight.

After new shoots grow from the side, you need to increase light and water appropriately to keep the soil in the pot slightly moist.
