How to water succulents, how to water succulents

If you want to have a state of succulents, how to water them is very important, so how should you water them, I think you can start from the following aspects, flower friends can refer to it:

Preferred, according to the growth stage of succulents, the watering method is also different, if it is a succulent plant at the seedling stage, is in the root growth stage, this time can not let the pot soil lack water for a long time, as long as the pot soil is found to be dry, it is necessary to water in time to prevent the root system from drying up, and so we find that they have obvious signs of growth, you can start to slowly expand the watering interval, the initial stage of the leaves are soft to water, the later stage to wait for the leaves to consume and then watering is no problem, The main criterion in this process is to see how the succulent plants are in a state after watering, if they fade, it means that the watering frequency is frequent and the amount of watering is large, so the interval should be appropriately widened, otherwise the interval should be appropriately reduced.

Secondly, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments according to the different seasons, generally speaking, when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees in summer, the amount of watering should be less than in spring and autumn, try to keep the potting soil in a dry state, in addition to the completely dormant varieties such as mountain roses, mages, fairy cups and other varieties need to be cut off water, the rest can be watered, but when watering, you only need to give a circle of water along the edge of the pot, so that the potting soil has a certain moisture.

When the winter maintenance temperature is relatively low, such as below 10 degrees, it is also necessary to water in the same way as in summer, which is conducive to the winterization of succulents, and the minimum temperature should not be lower than 5 degrees, otherwise it will frostbite the succulents.

<> finally, the way to water the succulent is difficult to achieve complete unity because of the difference in the maintenance environment and variety, but as long as you follow the principle of the big and do not let the potting soil accumulate excessive water, there is basically no problem with feeding, and the later state still depends on the light and temperature difference.

When watering succulents, the scientific watering method is not to fix the watering time, and should wait for the cultivation soil to dry up and then replenish the water.

In spring and autumn, the weather is very good, you can water it once every 3 days or so, and in summer and winter, it will temporarily stop growing, and it is best to water it once a week or half a month. Depending on the season, the watering time should also be changed.

First, the watering method.

1. For the small succulent that has just been cultivated, its root system has not grown completely, and there will be a certain amount of water in the cultivation soil, so there is no need to water too much. Usually, you just need to wet the surface of the soil, you don't need to water it thoroughly.

2. For the succulent with complete root growth, we need to water it thoroughly, and if the long-term watering stops halfway, it is also very unfavorable to its growth. When giving water, pour water into the soil, not the roots, and do not water the leaves of the plants.

3. Secondly, it is watering when it rains, and you generally don't need to water too much in the rainy season. When it rains, the air itself is very humid, and the water in the soil cannot evaporate, so you can replenish the water after the rain stops for a period of time, otherwise the water will not evaporate, and it will be easy to rot the roots.

4. When watering, you can also add nutrients, such as the water-soluble fertilizer series of fertile leaves, diluted twice, and used with water.

1. Watering in spring and autumn: watering twice a week, watering along the edge of the pot, and stop when there is water flowing out at the bottom of the pot. 2. Summer watering:

Water every 2-3 days to keep the potting soil moist. 3. Winter watering: When the temperature is reduced, you can water it every 7-10 days to avoid potting soil compaction.

4. Precautions: tap water should be used after standing for 3 days, and watered at noon in winter.

1. Watering in spring and autumn

In the process of breeding succulents, spring and autumn belong to the peak season of plant growth, the growth of plants has a higher demand for water, this time to ensure that the water is abundant, usually need to be watered about 2 times a week.

2. Summer watering:

In order to avoid the drying of plants, it is necessary to replenish water in time, but you can not blindly water in summer, and keep the soil slightly moist. Too moist soil is not conducive to the growth of plants, usually watered once every 2-3 days.

3. Winter watering

The temperature is very low in winter, and the succulents will enter the dormant period, when the growth rate of the plants is slow, and the demand for water is also reduced, so it is necessary to reduce the watering of the plants in winter, keep the soil dry, and water once every 7 or 10 days.

4. Precautions

Water the succulents thoroughly at one time, otherwise it will affect the normal growth of the plants. In addition, tap water cannot be used directly for irrigation, it needs to be left for 2 to 3 days.

Watering plants in spring, summer and autumn should be done early in the morning or evening, but in winter the temperature is very low and should be done after the temperature has risen at noon.

The method of succulent watering depends on the season, the size of the plant, and the watering method.

1. Look at the season

In the spring, when it is more humid, you can water less appropriately, and in the summer, the succulent will enter a dormant state, and you should also pay attention to less watering. Autumn is the time when succulents grow the fastest, and watering needs to be done more. In winter, when the temperature drops, to reduce watering, you can use a thin bamboo skewer to insert it into the soil before watering to see how moist the soil is.

2. Look at the size of the plant

For succulent seedlings that have just been potted, the amount of watering each time must be small, because at this time their root system is not very developed, their ability to absorb water is limited, and if they are watered too much, it is easy to rot the root system. For succulents that have grown well, it is generally recommended to water them thoroughly at one time after the potting soil is dry, so that it can also be conducive to their root growth.

3. Watering method

When watering, you can water it along the edge of the pot, and then choose a loosely drained soil, and wait until there is water leakage below, which means that it has been watered thoroughly, and the water will be slowly absorbed by the roots in the middle, which can effectively avoid the roots being soaked in water.

Growth habits of succulents

Succulents are sun-loving plants that grow mainly in spring and autumn. The growth period should be given enough light, if too shady, it will cause the plant shape to be loose, not compact, the leaves are slender and long, if the light is too strong, the leaves grow poorly, light reddish-brown, sometimes strong direct sunlight will also burn the leaves, leaving unsightly marks, the plants that grow in the semi-shade, the leaves are thick and full, and the transparency is high.

The correct way to water succulents is: according to the size of the plant, according to the change of seasons, according to the state of the soil, etc.

1. According to the size of the plant

Because of the strange shape of the succulent, it has different sizes of equal parts, for some small plants, we take the watering method is a "small amount and many times" watering method, we can water the succulent once a day, but not too much!

For those large succulents, we take a "more but less" watering method to water large succulents. The time can be controlled in about a week, and the amount of watering should be larger. If your succulent stake is an old pile, you should water it once a month when watering, and you should water it thoroughly at one time!

2. Change according to the season

Of course, different seasons have different watering methods, for example, the climate does not change much in spring and autumn, so the frequency of watering is about the same, once a week!

If the environment in which the plant grows is well ventilated, it will be watered once every three to four days, and in these two seasons of summer and winter, there will be a large number of succulents entering the dormant period, so we should lower the frequency of watering, and we can water the succulents once every six months.

3. According to the state of the soil

This method is the best way for us to judge the watering of succulents, each pot of succulents they live in a different state of the soil, so we should also water the way we water, if we see the soil in the pot is dry, then we can water the plants!
