1. Increase lightingThe main reason for Oplina's excessive growth is insufficient light. As a succulent plant, its growth cannot be separated from the sun. It must be placed in a sunny place so that it can receive sunlight throughout the day, which can play a preventive role. However, it is still necessary to provide adequate shade under the scorching sun in summer, otherwise the plants will easily be sunburned. 2. Control wateringAnother major reason why the succulent plant Opalina grows too tall is that it is watered too much. Although sufficient water can accelerate the growth of the plant, it will also make it grow looser. Don’t water too much at normal times. Be sure to wait until the soil is completely dry before watering thoroughly. An alternately dry and wet environment is more conducive to its development. 3. Apply less nitrogen fertilizerIf too much nitrogen fertilizer is applied to Oplina, it will also cause it to grow too tall. However, this situation is often rare. This plant is very resistant to barrenness, so it is rarely over-fertilized, and compound fertilizers or organic fertilizers are generally used. The fertilization interval is usually one month, and fertilization can be stopped if the plants are growing well. 4. Proper pruningWhen Oplina grows too tall, the most direct way is to prune it. Cut off the parts that start to grow too long, leaving the originally compact parts so that the plant can grow and develop again. After pruning, place it in a semi-shaded place to allow the wound to dry and avoid infection. In addition, the cut part can also be used for cuttings, so that you can have a new plant. |
