Purple pearl cultivation methods and precautions

Purple Pearl is a succulent plant that is relatively easy to grow, and it is also quite common. Generally speaking, find a suitable container for it, add some granular soil to plant it, and wait until it has officially taken root and adapted to the pot, then you can directly throw the purple pearl outside to grow it outdoors. Basically, it can be grown well.

How to cultivate purple pearls

1. Sunlight

Purple Pearl likes an environment with plenty of sunlight. If it does not receive enough light, it will easily grow slowly. In addition, its stem will become longer, the leaves will become loose, and the color of the leaves will turn green. Therefore, it must be placed in a place with sufficient light for cultivation.

2. Watering

The stems and leaves of purple pearl contain a lot of water, so after most of the water in the soil has dried up, be sure to water it thoroughly. Be careful not to water it too much, otherwise waterlogging and root rot will occur.

3. Ventilation

During the high temperatures in summer, purple pearls are very prone to root rot due to the high temperature and high humidity environment, so it is best for us to keep it in a well-ventilated place. In addition, when the temperature is low in the morning or evening, it is necessary to open the windows appropriately to allow air to circulate.

4. Pest control

Purple pearls are very easy to attract cabbage loopers or scale insects, so it is necessary to do a good job of disease and pest control. They need to be sprayed with pest repellent every 15 to 30 days. You can also dilute the liquid medicine with water and use it to water the purple pearls. The pest control effect is very good.

Purple Pearl Care Precautions

1. Avoid exposure to the sun

Purple pearls that are kept indoors for a long time cannot withstand excessive sunlight and are very likely to die from the sun or get sunburned. If you want to move indoor purple pearls to outdoor cultivation, you need to expose them to sunlight gradually.

2. Take shelter from the rain

When the weather is in the rainy season, we have to move the purple pearl to a place that is sheltered from the rain, because if it is not sheltered from the rain, it will easily lead to water accumulation in the flowerpot, causing the root rot of the purple pearl, and long-term exposure to rain will also cause leaf rot.
