How to grow succulents for beginners

1. Pot soil requirements

The material of the flower pot needs to be more breathable and have a larger growing space. The choice of soil is critical and important. The flower soil must be loose, well-drained and nutritious. You can use peat soil, vermiculite, wood ash, etc., so that the succulents grown can be strong.

2. Suitable lighting

For most succulent varieties, they like sunlight very much. They can be placed in a sunny place with sufficient exposure to light to avoid excessive growth. The leaf color will also be more beautiful. There are a few succulents that do not like sunlight, and you can adjust it according to the situation.

3. Suitable temperature

Temperature is also a key point. Adjust the temperature to an appropriate range and keep it warm overall. Pay special attention during the summer and winter. Distinguish between summer-type species and winter-type species, and pay close attention during their respective dormancy periods.

4. Appropriate amount of water

Succulents are generally drought-resistant and do not need too much water. They can be watered thoroughly when they are just planted, and then adjusted according to the specific variety and growth needs. The amount of water each time must not be too much to avoid waterlogging.

5. Appropriate fertilization

They do not require much fertilizer, so you can apply a moderate amount during the period of vigorous growth.
