How to grow succulents

1. Prepare the soil

When planting succulents, you need to choose a porcelain or clay pot of appropriate size. You can buy nutrient soil from the market or prepare it yourself. Use lightweight materials, leaf mold, peat and coarse sand in a ratio of 1:1:1:2, then put it into the pot and set aside.

2. Seed Sowing

When planting, sprinkle the succulent seeds directly on the surface of the soil, then cover with a layer of fine soil and cover with plastic wrap, then poke a few small holes with a toothpick to facilitate the seeds to breathe, and finally place them in a well-ventilated place and wait for them to germinate and take root.

3. Post-maintenance

1. Watering: In spring and autumn, water once every 4 days. In summer, when the temperature is high, water once a day. In winter, most succulents will hibernate, so reduce the amount of water and water once every half a month.

2. Fertilization: The growth of any plant cannot be separated from nutrients, and succulents are no exception. Fertilize once every month during the spring and autumn growing seasons, and no fertilizer is required in summer and winter.

3. Temperature: The suitable temperature for the growth of succulents is between 15 and 28 degrees. The lowest temperature cannot be lower than 5 degrees, and it must be controlled above 10 degrees in winter.
