How to grow succulents in a non-draining cup

How to grow succulents in a non-draining cup

1. Manual drilling

If the cup does not drain well, you can drill holes manually to increase its drainage capacity. However, not all cups can be punched with holes. Punching holes in glass or porcelain cups can easily cause them to crack, rendering them completely scrapped.

2. Cup bottom pad particles

If the flower pot itself has poor drainage, you can put some larger particle media at the bottom, such as expanded clay, bricks, coal slag, etc. This will allow the water to sink to the bottom and prevent water from accumulating at the roots, thereby avoiding submerging the roots and causing them to rot.

3. Water less

If you can't open a "circle", you can only reduce expenditure. Reduce your daily watering to only half the normal amount. This can prevent the roots from being submerged, and if there is water at the bottom, it will keep the soil in the pot moist, which will also help its growth. The watering interval should be longer, once every 1-2 weeks is enough.
