How to make succulents pancake

When the succulents grow normally, they spread out into a big pancake

When growing succulents, during its growth period, you may find that it shows signs of spreading out.

In fact, succulents, especially those of the lotus palm type, have leaves that need to grow, so the lower leaves will expand, making them look a bit spread out.

In fact, if such a phenomenon occurs, you should observe carefully. If the gaps between the leaves are not too large and there are no signs that the leaves are turning down, there is no big problem.

Basically, you will know after the succulents have grown for a while. Afterwards, you can just cut off the aging leaves of the succulent.

Succulents have too much water and lack of light and spread out

Too much water and lack of light, I believe this is the most common reason why succulents grow too large. The main reason is overwatering or insufficient light, which can easily cause succulents to spread out. At this time, succulents will appear in a state where the leaves are spread out and there are obvious layers between the leaves. The leaves become thin and feel sickly.

At this time, you need to reduce watering and provide appropriate light supplementation, and you also need to check the potting soil, which should have good air permeability.

Succulent suddenly exposed to the sun and spread out

When growing succulents, suddenly exposing them to the sun will cause them to expand. This usually happens in late spring and early summer, when the light suddenly becomes strong. If there is a lack of water at this time, it will easily cause the seeds to collapse.

At this time, shading and watering are needed, but it is difficult for the plant to recover in a short period of time. With careful maintenance, it can still get better again. In addition, cuttings can also be taken.
