What to do if succulents grow slowly

Improve the growth environment of succulents

If the succulents you grow grow very slowly, you first need to consider the environmental issues, because from this point of view, the breeding environment may not be suitable for the growth of succulents. These conditions generally include light, temperature, humidity, water, fertilizer, etc., so it is necessary to change the maintenance environment of succulents.

Succulents need less transplanting

When growing succulents, it is generally not necessary to transplant them frequently. When succulents are growing, the growth of the root system is very important. Only when the roots grow well can the plant have a chance to grow. When growing succulents, be careful not to repot or transplant them frequently, because repotting or transplanting will cause great damage to the root system of the succulents, which will affect their growth.

Controlling the shape of succulent plants

When growing succulents, you may encounter the problem of excessive growth. In fact, excessive growth can sometimes make the succulents fuller.

In the early stages of the growth of succulents, you can water them more and provide shade to encourage the inner leaves to grow taller. When the weather gradually gets warmer and the light becomes stronger, add light appropriately, reduce watering, and maintain a suitable temperature difference. In this way, the succulents will slowly grow new leaves, and then the overgrown leaves will slowly be pressed down by the new leaves. Succulents will grow taller and then gradually become fuller.

Correct repotting of succulent plants

When growing succulents, it is inevitable that you will need to change the pots, and at this time you need to do it correctly. When repotting succulents, you need to do it step by step, gradually changing them into larger pots. Be careful not to damage the roots when repotting to ensure its growth.
