1. Choose a potThe roots of Lithops are very fragile, so the pot for growing it must have good air permeability. When choosing its material, the first thing to consider is clay. There is no requirement for the size of the pot, but the pot should not be too deep. If it is too deep, water will easily accumulate, and the accumulated water will cause the roots to rot. When choosing a pot, don't just listen to the seller's opinion. The pots he recommends to you are usually high-profit pots, which may not be suitable for growing it. Be sure not to choose a pot made of glass, as glass is not breathable and has poor drainage performance. 2. Homemade basinThe material of the homemade pot should also be clay. There is no special regulation on the size of the pot, but the pot should be as shallow as possible. If it is too deep, water will accumulate. Drill a few holes at the bottom of the pot to increase air permeability and drainage. Then extend a cotton thread as thick as a finger out of the hole. It can draw excess water out of the pot. It is best to prepare a tray at the bottom of the basin to prevent excess water from flowing everywhere and facilitate cleaning. 3. RepottingLithops do not like old soil, so the soil in the pot should be changed every six months to a year. When changing the pot, you should choose the pot according to the number of Lithops plants you are planting. You can plant multiple plants together or a single plant. When planting multiple plants, try to choose a large clay pot to leave them growth space for the next year. If it is a single plant, an ordinary clay pot will be enough. |
