How should you take care of succulents in winter? How to maintain succulents in winter

Xiaoya answers for you:

Succulents can be raised by anyone, one pot or two pots will not be too expensive, and most of the succulents grow very good-looking, and they are easy to reproduce, and many trees can be planted directly with leaf cuttings. Succulent summer, succulent winter, these two seasons to raise succulent should pay special attention, a little less attention to the succulent will be unrecognizable. Especially in winter, succulent plant maintenance should pay attention to these points:

1. After the temperature drops below five degrees, move indoors in time, many friends see the kind of fleshy still in the snowflakes, don't try it easily, otherwise a frost and snow, the fleshy will freeze all over the body. Putting it in a warm place will do.

2. In winter, you should also bask in the sun, otherwise if the indoor temperature is a little high, it will be easy to grow and fall leaves.

3. Don't water too much, when the weather is good, water it properly, but not too dry.

4. Don't fertilize it in winter, don't change pots and transplant it, in short, don't toss, wait until the winter is over.

If it is in Shanghai, it is best to move the succulents indoors before the frost and snow, and not put them outdoors, because the temperature in Shanghai can also be around zero degrees in winter. It's better to move to your home and feel at ease.

Thank you! How should you take care of succulents in winter?

This is a question that many first-time succulent flower lovers often ask. Most varieties of succulents have weak roots and shallow root growth. Afraid of moisture, afraid of cold.

In winter, the main maintenance is to protect it from the cold, and the growth environment is best above 5 degrees. It can't be below zero, and below zero it will basically be frozen and rotten.

If it is in the breeding heating room, it is necessary to pay attention to ventilation, and the weak meat is afraid of stuffiness. Stay away from heat sources.

Reduce watering and keep the soil slightly moist. When the soil is too dry, spray some water in the potting soil is fine.

1. Increase the temperature.

1. South: Succulents are difficult to grow normally in the cold winter, so it is necessary to take measures to keep warm and increase the temperature of growth. For the southern region, the temperature is relatively high, especially in Guangzhou, Yunnan and other places, these areas can be maintained in the open air, and for the northern southern region, open air maintenance can be realized, but it needs to be covered with plastic film at night, or moved indoors.

2. North: The temperature in the north is low, so we must pay attention to the weather conditions and move it indoors in time. Most of the rooms are heated, so keeping the temperature at 15-20 degrees Celsius is not a problem, and it is suitable for succulent growth.

2. Control watering.

When maintaining succulents in winter, you must pay attention to water control, at this time, the growth rate is slow, so the demand for water is reduced, if you do not control the water, it will lead to root rot, and you can keep the soil dry in winter.

3. Keep the light on.

Put it in a well-lit place to maintain it to fully meet the demand for sunlight, and the indoor light conditions are not as good as the outdoors, so it should be kept on the south balcony with good sunlight.

Fourth, pay attention to ventilation.

Although it is kept indoors, it should not be too stuffy, and if the growth environment is not well ventilated, it will lead to stuffy roots and leaves. When the temperature is high at noon, the window can be opened appropriately to let in the air.

1.If the outside temperature is below 5 degrees, take it indoors or on the balcony.

2.When the outdoor temperature is lower than 10 degrees Celsius in windy areas, succulents such as lotus palm and silver brocade should be quickly brought back indoors. (Black Mage, Bear Boy, etc.).

3.The minimum temperature of the indoor environment is higher than 0 degrees Celsius, and it is safe to survive the winter.

4.If the minimum temperature is above 10 degrees Celsius in winter, succulents will grow normally.

5.Some open-reared varieties are cold-tolerant, and there is no problem within minus 15 degrees: long-growing grasses and sedum grasses.

6.In the cold area of the south, minus 5 degrees to 0 degrees in a short period of time, there is not much pressure on open cultivation. (not seedlings).

Succulent winter maintenance methods include: stop open breeding, control watering, soil preparation. The number of collapses is large

1. Stop open breeding: If you want to safely overwinter succulents in winter, you should stop exposed breeding before the winter comes, and move them to a sunny place indoors for maintenance, so as not to have too low temperature, resulting in frost damage to succulents, which not only affects their safe wintering, but also leads to weak growth in the coming year and reduces the aesthetics of succulents.

2. Control watering: In the process of maintaining succulents in winter, it is necessary to reduce the frequency and amount of watering, avoid excessive watering, resulting in soil waterlogging, resulting in root rot, and the temperature in winter is low, soil water accumulation may also frostbite the root system, at this time, you can water once every two weeks, or observe the growth of the plant to determine the frequency and amount of watering.

3. Soil preparation: In order to ensure that the succulents can safely overwinter, it is necessary to provide loose and fertile, good drainage, sandy soil with a certain aggregate structure, and the soil can be prepared with a mixture of organic planting materials and inorganic planting materials, so as to avoid Bimeng soil is too fine and the dust is too small, which is not conducive to the growth and development of plants.

Precautions

Bringing succulents indoors to warmth doesn't mean you can put succulents next to radiators to keep warm. The temperature next to the radiator is too high, and there is not much water in the succulent soil, but when the temperature is high, all the water will evaporate, and the water in the leaves will also evaporate, and it will easily die.

Also, not only heating, but also air conditioning is to be kept away. If you put the succulent plant on the air conditioner and blow it, it won't be long before the pot of succulents will die! Therefore, it is necessary to find a location that is not close to the air conditioning outlet and radiator to prevent counterproduction.

1. Reasonable lighting.

Succulents like plenty of light, the appropriate growth temperature is 15 28, it should be placed in a sunny place during winter breeding, and it can be directly cultivated outdoors when the temperature is above 10. Sufficient light can make the leaves color in 7 to 10 days, and insufficient light will cause the phenomenon of overgrowth. The temperature in the northern region is low in winter and the light is weak, so the light can be appropriately used to increase the light during indoor farming.

2. Reduce watering.

Succulent and hypertrophic leaves have a strong water storage capacity and are generally drought tolerant. In winter, the temperature decreases, the growth slows down, and the water demand gradually decreases, generally watering once every 15 days, and can be watered once every 7 10 days in the northern greenhouse, or wait until the leaves are wrinkled and the potting soil is whitened before watering, the amount of water must be less when watering, and the potting soil can be watered along the edge of the pot.

3. Reduce fertilization.

In winter, most of the succulents grow slowly, and the southern outdoor farming should stop fertilization to prevent fertilizer damage, and the small fiber base cultivated in the greenhouse should be appropriately applied to the filial piety of some thin fertilizer. Winter is the growth period of winter succulents, and it is necessary to apply 2 5 grains of slow-release fertilizer in the pot every other month, or apply a well-rotted organic liquid fertilizer every 20 days.

4. Cold-proof and warm-warm.

In central China, the lowest temperature in winter in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is about 0, and the succulent can be placed outdoors for more ventilation before the frost, and then put it indoors or put a cold-proof cover when the frost comes, so as to increase the ability to keep out the cold. In winter, the temperature in the south is mostly maintained at around 10, so you only need to take it indoors on rainy days. The winter in the north is very cold, if it is kept outdoors, it is necessary to build a thermal insulation shed, and ventilate it when there is sun during the day.

Succulent in winter, don't water it too often, it's okay in general. 7 It is okay to water once every 10 days, or even once every half a month.

The cultivation method of winter succulent is as follows:

The following is an example of a succulent peony:

1.Light: Be sure to see more sunlight, lack of sunlight will become very ugly and unhealthy, and at the same time easy to breed diseases.

2.Temperature: Winter should be spent indoors, and the temperature should be kept above 5 degrees.

3.Watering: Winter into the dormant period, control the amount of watering, spend the winter indoors, below 5 degrees to gradually cut off the water, below 3 degrees to keep the potting soil dry, try to keep not less than minus 3 degrees, the cold winter water will rot roots.

4.Fertilization: In winter, you generally do not need to apply too much fertilizer, you can apply fertilizer as appropriate, and stop fertilizing if the temperature is too low.

5.Prevent overgrowth: white peony is easy to grow side branches, side branches grow relatively quickly, the leaves of the plant will be elongated after lack of light, the leaves will be separated from the leaves will be a large distance, the leaves will become thinner, the color is not very white, will be slightly blue.

It is an easy to grow tall and long variety, if you want to raise the leaves compact, you need strong light, otherwise you will grow in vain if you give a little water, because the leaves are thick and the weight is concentrated at the end of the stem, so that the old stem is easy to tilt, so it is also easy to develop the old pile pose. When watering, try to pour it in the soil, as the leaves stained with water will affect the appearance and are easy to be burned by the sun.

Succulent plant maintenance strategy! There is simply zero resistance to round succulents, and if you want to raise succulents as much as possible, you must learn these three tricks.

Winter protection of succulents.

Winter is a good season for mutton, eat more and sleep more, don't go out to exercise, and sweat less, so that your meat feels more
