Succulents are most afraid of it in winter, so flower lovers should pay attention!

1. Frost

In fact, many succulents are most afraid of frost in winter. Frost is actually the water in the air that gathers when it encounters cold air, and then falls due to gravity. Frost will absorb the heat from the plants, causing the leaves to get frostbite, and some may even die directly. Therefore, flower lovers must be careful in winter and must not let their plants get frostbite.

2. Snow Melt

In winter, snowmelt is what succulents fear the most. When it snows, the flesh on the leaves will not necessarily cause frostbite, but when the snow starts to melt, it will absorb the heat from the leaves, so it will be very easy for the plants to get frostbite. If there is snow on the plants, remember to clean it off before it melts, so as to prevent them from getting frozen again. Let those plants spend the winter safely.

3. Fertilization

Some people think that in order to make them grow better, they will continuously fertilize them in some seasons. In fact, this is a wrong practice. In winter, many plants do not need to be fertilized, unless you put them in a relatively high temperature indoors or in a greenhouse. When the temperature is very low, they actually don’t grow much. At this time, fertilizing them is not very effective. On the contrary, if you force fertilize them, it will cause fertilizer damage to them.

4. Tips

In order to ensure that the plants can safely spend the winter, here I can give you a better method. We can use some foam boxes to saw off their inner frames, and then place them in the sand. We also need to remove their pots and transplant them into the boxes with the soil. Then use transparent plastic to arrange it on top of the box to allow it to let in light better, and then place it in a sunny place. This way it can be well insulated to prevent frostbite and ensure the normal growth of the plant. But one thing to note is that when using this method, you must uncover it frequently to allow it to breathe.
