Succulent plants suitable soil requirementsAlthough different varieties of succulents have different requirements for flower soil, the overall requirements are the same. First of all, it must have a high drainage capacity, because this kind of soil will not easily accumulate water. The second requirement is that it must be breathable, which is more conducive to the breathing of its roots. The third point is that it must be sterile, which can reduce the chance of the plant getting sick. How to prepare soil for succulent plants1. Coconut bran + perlite A relatively simple method is to prepare some sterilized coconut coir and perlite and mix them together in a ratio of 2:1 or 3:1. If the plants you are planting like fertilizer, you can also mix in a small amount of base fertilizer, or use a small amount of peat soil instead of coconut coir. 2. Garden soil + leaf humus + river sand For succulents that prefer fertilizer, you can mix garden soil, leaf mold and river sand in a ratio of 5:3:2. Such soil is rich in humus, nutritious, and has good drainage, which is suitable for the growth of succulents. How to change the soil of succulent plants1. Flower Pots When repotting succulents, it is best to choose a flower pot that is slightly larger than the plant, 2-3 cm. The better the air permeability, the more conducive it is to the development of the plant's root system. It is appropriate to use a ceramic pot, and try not to use a plastic pot. When repotting, you can put some gravel or tiles at the bottom of the pot to increase air permeability. 2. Steps Separate the succulents from the potting soil, shake off the soil at the roots, trim off the rotten roots, apply disinfectant to the cut, place it in a cool place to dry for a while, plant it in new soil after the wound is dry, and keep it in a cool place for two or three days. After it has recovered, you can maintain it normally. |
