Can succulents be exposed to the sun in summer?

Can I get some sun?

In summer, it is very important to expose succulents to the sun. Summer is the dormant period for many succulents. At this time, the growth of the plants stops, and the demand for water and nutrients is very small, and the requirement for light is not high. Generally speaking, it does not need too much sunlight.

In summer, the best time for succulents to be exposed to light is in the morning and evening. Generally, the light is strong and the temperature is highest at noon, which is a taboo for succulents, as they can easily get sunburned or killed by the sun.

Generally speaking, in summer, summer-type succulents can be exposed to light appropriately, but most succulents should not be exposed to the sun for a long time. Place them indoors where they cannot be exposed to sunlight, or use shade nets to block the light.

This will avoid direct sunlight.

How to deal with sunburn

Generally in the summer, even though everyone has taken measures, succulents are still easily sunburned. So what should you do if it gets sunburned?

If succulents are sunburned, it usually manifests itself on the leaves, with yellow-brown spots appearing on the leaves, and they will become soft, wilt, and even die.

If this happens, place the succulents in a cool and ventilated place first. Note that sunburned leaves generally will not recover. You have to wait for them to fall off slowly, and then new leaves will grow.
