Pick up some honeycomb coal on the roadside, grow succulents there and they will grow faster. You won’t be afraid of them dying in the summer anymore!

Dig some honeycomb coal and you will no longer be afraid of death!

Although Lithops is a succulent variety that can survive the summer well, if the temperature is too high or there is a little rain, it will die if you are not careful! So today I will teach you a simple little method, which is to use honeycomb coal!

How to do it:

1. If you have honeycomb coal at home, especially if you are a flower lover in the countryside, prepare a whole burnt honeycomb coal. ,

2. Find a clean filter, wrap it around the outside of the honeycomb briquettes, and then tie it tightly with a rope.

3. Use a filter to completely cover one end of the honeycomb coal as the bottom, and then secure it with a rope.

4. Prepare nutrient soil mixed with peat soil, coconut coir, etc., pour the nutrient soil into the gaps of honeycomb coal, and use it as nutrient soil for lithops.

5. Transplant the Lithops into the pores of the honeycomb coal, and then place it in a place with good diffuse light indoors for maintenance. It can be exposed to the sun for a while in the morning and evening when the sunlight is not strong.

6. Be careful when watering Lithops in summer. You must wait until it becomes wrinkled before watering it. You can choose to water it in the early morning. At the same time, pay attention to ventilation, and Lithops can spend the summer safely!

Use coal slag to pad the bottom of the pot, and the succulent plants will grow faster!

Flower lovers often ask Huahua, how should they prepare the soil for succulents at home? In fact, the honeycomb coal picked up from the roadside and mixed with soil is also super useful!

Steps:

1. Crush the coal slag you have picked up with your feet or a stick until it is broken into thumb-sized pieces.

2. Use a sieve to filter out large particles of coal slag several times, and then soak it in clean water for more than 24 hours. Because coal ash produces sulfur during combustion and is highly alkaline, it can be used after soaking.

3. The soaked coal slag can be exposed to the sun to allow the moisture to evaporate as quickly as possible, which can also play a role in sterilization and disinfection.

4. When repotting succulents, you can put a few pieces of processed coal slag at the bottom of the pot. Not only can it allow water and air to pass through to prevent root rot, but the coal slag also contains a variety of trace elements to supplement nutrients for succulents.

5. The remaining fine coal slag can be mixed with peat soil in a ratio of 2:1 and used as nutrient soil for growing succulents. The soil mixed in this way is loose and breathable, and will definitely not cause the roots of succulents to rot!
