How to water succulents correctly in summerSucculents are not afraid of high temperatures, but they are afraid of humidity . In summer, when the temperature is higher than 35 degrees Celsius, you should first prepare a well-ventilated environment for the succulents in advance, so that the soil can be "alternated between dry and wet" as soon as possible after each watering. So, specifically, how can you water succulents in summer so that they can survive the summer without growing too tall? First, watering time:Succulents are drought-tolerant, but afraid of humidity. In summer, you must wait until the sun goes down in the evening and the temperature of the flower soil drops before watering. Once water is applied at noon, the soil under high temperature will create a humid and stuffy environment, which is very prone to root rot and black rot. Second, determine watering:When watering succulents in the summer, you need to observe the dryness and wetness of the planting material and make sure to "not water if it is not dry, and water thoroughly if it is." Succulents are extremely drought-resistant. Even if you wait a few days to water them after the soil is completely dry, they will not die. When watering many varieties of succulents, you can even wait until the leaves are slightly wrinkled before watering. Third, watering method:When watering succulents, water slowly and in small amounts. Use a container and slowly let the water circulate around the flowerpot, allowing the water to slowly penetrate into the center of the soil from multiple angles so that the soil can fully absorb the water. When watering, you should pay attention to allowing excess water to flow out from the bottom of the pot every time you water. For many plants with whorled bases, please note that water should not accumulate in the center. If water accumulates in the center of the leaves, you can use a paper towel to gently tap it a few times to absorb the water. Fourth, watering details:In summer, it is a redundant season in the south. When watering, pay attention to not watering during rainy days. Succulent plants grown outdoors need to be sheltered from the rain during the rainy season. Avoid long-term wet soil and root rot. Avoid the high temperature at noon when the succulent plants are exposed to rain. |
