What kind of soil are succulents suitable for? How do I mix it at home?

Succulents are generally suitable for a mixture of ordinary soil and granular soil, because this soil can provide a loose and breathable environment for the root system to avoid water accumulation, so that it can grow more robust. It is also very simple to mix at home, if you plant succulent or small seedlings or need cuttings, you can use 7 parts of humus and 3 parts of cinder to match the soil, and after a year or two of maintenance, the soil needs to be re-allocated, with the same proportion of humus and cinder to match the soil.

Succulents have high soil requirements and are suitable for soft and breathable soils with good drainage performance and rich in nutrients. In such a soil environment, succulents can grow better. Prepare succulents, use humus, cinder, peat, perlite, phytolite, etc., and must be disinfected before using it.

Succulents are suitable for loose and breathable soil, and you can use peanut shells, bark, and small stones at home.

Succulent soil requirements.

The pulp prefers to be planted in neutral or slightly acidic soils that are loose in air permeability, have good drainage, and retain water and fertilizer. Rice bran ash and small weathered rock can also be added to the pot to fix the plant and enhance the air permeability and drainage of the plant. Soils suitable for succulents:

Humus, coarse gravel, garden soil.

What kind of soil is used to cultivate succulents.

Succulents are dominated by succulent roots, so they are afraid of waterlogging. Therefore, they need to be loose and drained. You can add some crushed tiles and volcanic rock to the soil to increase the permeability of the soil, or add fine pine needles and bark to increase the soil voids.

Soil selection:1. The first, of course, is humus.

The black soil we often see is rich in nutrients, particularly fertile, has a strong water-holding capacity, and is not easy to lose water after watering. It is recommended to mix with other granular soils. 2.

Coarse gravel soils are also often seen, usually next to creeks or streams. Because of its large molecules, it can have good permeability to ensure the flow of water, and there are many elements in it. If it is mixed with other nutrient soils, it will be more suitable for use.

3.Garden soil is also available. In fact, it is yellow soil, which has a lot of nutrients in it.

But it should be noted that it is sticky, cannot be watered, and can easily accumulate water. If potted plants are maintained, it is better not to choose this kind of soil. It would be nice if it was planted in the ground.

Succulent nutrient soil preparation.

The most convenient combination of soils is: peat soil and coarse sand 1:1. Peat soil is the thinnest type used specifically for seedlings, and coarse sand needs to contain particles. The repotted soil has no insect pests, and it is not yellow mud and rotten leaf soil, which can be reused.

The succulent soil configuration method is as follows:

Material preparation: coco, perlite, vermiculite, garden soil, humus, coarse gravel.

1. Coconut peat, perlite and vermiculite can be mixed in a ratio of 2:1:1, which can ensure the air permeability, drainage and nutrient content of the soil.

2. Garden soil, coconut, humus soil and coarse gravel can be mixed and mixed in the ratio of 1:1:1:1, which is more suitable for varieties with less leaves. For sedum, succulents can be prepared with a mixture of garden soil, coconut peat and vermiculite, perlite, etc.

3. The succulent soil is often mixed together with a variety of media in different proportions, but how to control this proportion may be more troublesome. If you are preparing peat soil and granules in a ratio of 1:1, you can find a basin of suitable size, fill a pot of peat soil first, and then pour it into a large bag, and then use the same small basin to fill a box of granules into the bag, so that it is 1:

1 is prepared, and then the bag is sealed and shaken to mix evenly.

The role of succulent:

1. Soothe your mood.

Daily maintenance of succulents, the mood will be better, modern people's pace of life is fast, work pressure is greater, need to properly release the pressure generated in the body. The succulent plant is small and cute, and the leaves are always green. Seeing the flesh after work can make people relax.

2. Decorate the space.

Placing the succulent in the indoor environment can also play a better decorative role. The succulent plant type is relatively small and beautiful, the leaves are evergreen in all seasons, and the long-term maintenance of the plant in the room can make the room full of vitality, and the indoor environment can be more beautiful when placed indoors as decorations.

3. Enrich your life.

Raising a pot of succulents in addition to life can enrich people's spare time. Succulents are easy to maintain, inherently drought-tolerant, and can grow vigorously in front of the shed without too much watering. As long as it is carefully maintained, the succulent will use vigorous vitality and bright flowers.

Looking at the vigorous growth of the succulent, it seems that all the efforts have been rewarded.

1. Succulents are planted with soil and perlite.

2. The most commonly used soil blending method: peat soil + perlite (1:1) generally lives in the wild succulents (except for some water-loving succulents), the proportion of sand in the soil is the largest, and then gravel and soil.

After field investigations, it was found that most of the succulents in the wild live in areas with more than 70% of the proportion of sand + gravel.
