1, soil: succulent plants like soft soil, in order to allow the healthy growth of plants, we must ensure good air permeability and drainage.Potting soil can be made from a mixture of peat and perlite in a ratio of 1:1.For plants over two years old, river sand can be added, and the three are also matched in equal proportion.
2. Light: Succulent plants are basically light-loving, but it does not mean that light-loving can always be exposed to the sun.Most fleshy plants have the characteristics of high temperature dormancy, if the light is too strong, it will often lead to leaf water loss, so appropriate shade is needed.For some plants that are not afraid of strong light exposure, they can be placed in the sun.
3, watering: more meat drought resistance are relatively strong.Whether fleshy stems or fleshy leaves, they are rich in water, weak roots, not waterlogging tolerance, so do not water too much.Usually, water the soil after it has dried out, and water it thoroughly every time.In this way, the plant will not be too short of water, nor will it be flooded and withered.
4, Fertilization: Most of the meat are very barren, the demand for fertilizer is not strong, so do not need to fertilize frequently.Generally, during the growing period of the plant, that is, spring and autumn, it is enough to apply fertilizer once a month.Fertilizer should use special fertilizer for more meat, which can supplement nutrients without causing fertilizer damage.
1. Cuttage: Cuttage is a common propagation method for succulent plants. According to different species, the position of cuttage is also different.For example, cactus plants use stem cuttings, cut a complete stem, wait until the wound is dry and insert it into the soil.Some plants with succulent leaves are propagated by leaf cutting.The leaves are cut and spread on the slightly moist soil surface to induce them to take root, and then planted.
2. Ramet: For some fleshy plants that are easy to grow in groups, ramet is also a good choice.The plant is usually cut open and planted separately after the daughter plants have grown.Some fleshy plants need certain stimulation to grow, can be beheaded, promote the growth of lateral buds, grow up and then separate planting.
Meat itself is relatively strong in disease resistance, but it is more difficult to spend the summer.We must pay attention to temperature control, reduce watering, and strengthen ventilation.Too humid climate can easily lead to rotten roots, which need to be removed from pots and pruned roots, and then re-planted with dry soil.As for insect pests, occasionally there will be scale insects, which can be removed in time after discovery.
