How to deal with and prevent succulent plants from growing too long

1. How to deal with succulent plants after they grow too long

1. Pendant objects: If the succulent plant is tall, has a big head and a thin body, you can tie a small stone to the top according to the bending direction of the succulent stem. With the help of the power of the stone, make the succulent stem bend and droop. Then gradually increase the weight of the stone until the succulent plant is grown into a cliff stake and then untie it.

2. Lay the pot down: If the stems of the overgrown succulents are brittle or difficult to press, you can lay the pot down for a month. During this period, expose the pot to more sunlight. The succulents will bend and grow toward the light. After the succulents bend, stand the pot up and use the falling object method to grow it into a cliff stake.

3. Beheading: For succulents that have grown too tall, we can also reduce their height by beheading them. Place the cut heads in a cool and ventilated place to dry, then cut them into pots with moist soil. Place the remaining stems in a well-ventilated place with diffused light, and they will sprout new buds after a while.
