Succulent planting method, leaf cutting method

1. Planting method

There are many ways to grow succulents. The most commonly used method is leaf cutting. In addition, there are other planting methods such as branch cutting, division, and sowing.

2. Leaf cutting method

Some succulent varieties that grow well and have thick and healthy leaves are suitable for planting using this method. The specific operation method is as follows:

1. Select leaves: Pick some relatively thick leaves from healthy plants as materials for leaf cuttings, and place them in a ventilated and cool place to dry.

2. Prepare the potting soil: When doing leaf cuttings, be sure to use soil that has good air permeability and is not prone to water accumulation. This will help the cuttings take root. After preparing the potting soil, you need to first put them in the sun to disinfect them, and then put them in the pot for later use.

3. Carry out leaf cuttings: Place the dried leaves gently on the surface of the soil, or gently insert them into the soil. Then place them in a warm environment and spray water to maintain humidity. It won't be long before they start to take root.

3. Other methods

Some succulent varieties with strong branches can be propagated by branch cuttings. Insert the healthy branches into the soil and wait for them to take root. Some varieties that can grow sub-plants can be propagated by division. Cut off their seedlings with their roots and plant them in other pots. Some varieties that can produce seeds can be propagated by sowing. First germinate the seeds, then plant them in the soil, keep them warm, and they will germinate soon.
