When do succulents need to be beheaded?

1. Sickness

If not properly maintained, succulents will easily get sick. Usually after black rot occurs, it is necessary to cut off the damaged parts in time to allow the plant to sprout again. If not treated in time, the plants can easily die from the disease. However, if the roots are black rotted, there is no need to cut off the head.

2. Leggy

When the plant starts to grow too tall, that is, the stem becomes very thin and long, it is necessary to cut off the head in time. Beheading can help the plant sprout side buds better and the plant shape will become more beautiful.

3. Modeling

If the growth shape of the succulent plant is not good-looking, or if you want the plant to grow out of the pot, after beheading it, it will grow from a single head to multiple heads. Not only will the plant shape be full and short, but it will also look very ornamental.

IV. Reproduction

The beheading method can also be used for reproduction. If you want to get a new plant, you can also use this method. Simply cut down the seedlings, disinfect them and replant them, and then take care of them properly.
