Succulents are generally planted in spring from March to May. The climate at this time is suitable and more conducive to plant growth. Before planting, you should choose suitable potting soil, then sow the purchased succulent seeds in the soil and cover them with a layer of plastic film to promote root growth. Succulent planting method1. Planting time: Succulents like warm environment and are not cold-resistant. The planting time is usually chosen in spring from March to May. At this time, the climate is mild and the temperature is suitable, which is conducive to increasing its survival rate and accelerating rooting and germination. 2. Prepare potting soil: Choose smaller clay pots or tile pots, because most succulents are small plants, so it is fine to choose a pot that suits their own size. For potting soil, it is recommended to mix humus soil, peat soil, and coarse sand in a ratio of 2:2:1. You can also directly use special soil for succulents. 3. Choose seeds: First, choose succulent varieties according to personal preference, and then choose succulent seeds that grow well and are relatively full. They can usually be purchased at the flower market. 4. Planting: Sprinkle the prepared succulent seeds on the soil, cover it with a thin layer of soil, spray a small amount of water, cover the soil with a layer of plastic film, and insert several holes on the plastic film to facilitate ventilation and absorb the surrounding oxygen, thereby promoting rapid growth of roots and branches. Important points to pay attention to when planting succulent plants1. Air circulation If you want to grow succulents well, proper ventilation, more light, water and soil are all key factors. If the ventilation is good, you can effectively prevent fungal diseases and pests and keep the plant roots and stems growing healthily. 2. Adequate lighting Most succulents like to grow in plenty of sunlight, but when the summer is particularly hot, they need to be properly shaded in the afternoon to avoid excessive exposure to the sun. Note that some shade-tolerant succulents, such as agave, elephant leg tree, and striped Haworthia, are suitable for maintenance in a cool environment. 3. Water regularly When growing succulents in potted plants, be sure to check the moisture content of the soil before watering. If only the surface of the soil is dry, but about 3-5 cm below the soil is still wet, do not rush to water it. When watering the succulents, try not to water the leaves. |
