How to grow succulents fast

1. Pot soil selection

When growing succulents, you should choose a flowerpot with drainage holes and good air permeability, and the size should also be appropriate. In addition, the soil should also be granular soil with good drainage. If it is very sticky and prone to water accumulation, it will cause root rot of the plant, affecting its growth and survival.

2. Watering in moderation

Succulent plants are generally drought-resistant, so do not over-water them when growing them, and never allow water to accumulate. However, you cannot always control the water. The soil should be kept slightly moist so that the roots can absorb water well, which is more conducive to growth. Generally, watering once a week is sufficient.

3. Avoid strong light

Succulents generally prefer light, and sufficient light is beneficial to their growth. But avoid strong sunlight and do not expose to strong sunlight, otherwise the leaves will be burned. In addition, if the light exposure time is insufficient, it will affect growth and cause the plant shape to become loose.

4. Reasonable fertilization

Do not fertilize too frequently during the breeding period. It does not require much fertilizer for growth, and excessive fertilization is not conducive to its growth. During the peak growth period, you can add a small amount of fertilizer, using nitrogen fertilizer or compound fertilizer.
