How to water succulent plants during the acclimatization period

1. Watering method

The roots of succulents are usually fleshy and relatively drought-resistant. They are also very weak during the acclimatization period, so they do not need frequent watering. Not only can they not be absorbed, but they may also breed bacteria and cause root rot. However, it does not mean that watering is not necessary. The soil should be kept slightly moist, which is beneficial for the plant to acclimate.

2. Maintenance methods

1. Light: During the acclimatization period, you should not only pay attention to watering, but also pay more attention to light. It must not be placed in a place with strong sunlight, as strong light will cause the stomata on the leaves to close, thus affecting the root system and causing root rot. However, it cannot be placed in a place completely away from light, otherwise it will be detrimental to its recovery. It should be exposed to scattered light to allow it to passively absorb water and recover as soon as possible.

2. Temperature: When caring for the plant, you should also adjust the temperature according to the type of plant. Generally, a cool environment is more conducive to the acclimatization period. If it is hot in summer, you should pay attention to more ventilation and not keep it in a stuffy place, otherwise it will easily breed bacteria and affect its growth.

3. Fertilization: Some flower lovers think that the plants are too weak during the acclimatization period, so they blindly apply fertilizer to supplement nutrients. This is actually wrong. Do not apply fertilizer during this period, as the roots will not be able to absorb it and it will easily burn and cause death.
