Select heat-resistant varieties, reasonable watering, sunshade, cooling, ventilation, appropriate fertilization to prevent pests and diseases, maintain indoor humidity and high summer temperatures. For many flower lovers, it is a challenging period for the maintenance of succulent plants. How can succulent plants survive at a high temperature of 37 ° C? How to maintain its beauty and health? This article will provide you with a guide to the maintenance of succulents at 37 ° C in summer to help your succulents survive the scorching summer. Select heat-resistant varieties In a high temperature environment, it is crucial to choose heat-resistant succulent plant varieties, such as Crassulaceae, Echinacea and other varieties, which are highly adaptable to high temperatures. When purchasing, you can refer to some authoritative Industry reports, such as the "List of China Succulent Plant Varieties", to understand the heat tolerance of various succulent plants. Reasonably watering at high temperatures in summer, the evaporation rate of succulent plants will accelerate. Therefore, watering should be appropriate and the frequency of watering can be reduced, but it is enough to keep the soil slightly moist. Avoid watering during high temperatures to avoid causing the leaves of succulent plants to rot. Watering time should be selected in the morning or evening, when the temperature is lower, which is conducive to water evaporation. Shade and cooling In a high temperature environment, succulent plants are easily exposed to direct sunlight, causing sunburn on their leaves. Building a sunshade net or using an awning can reduce the light intensity and reduce water evaporation. Pay attention to maintaining ventilation, which helps reduce indoor temperature. A ventilated and well-ventilated ventilation environment is crucial for the growth of succulents. Under high temperatures in summer, it is necessary to ensure indoor and outdoor air circulation to avoid sultry environments. Fans or air conditioners can be used to assist in cooling down, but attention should be paid to avoid blowing succulents directly. Appropriate fertilization is high in summer, and the growth rate of succulent plants is slow. Therefore, appropriate fertilization should be used. Fertilizers with low nitrogen and high phosphorus and potassium can be selected, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Fertilization time should be selected in the morning or evening to avoid fertilization during high temperature periods. Prevent pests and diseases from being exposed to high temperatures in summer, and succulent plants are easily invaded by pests and diseases. Regularly inspect plant leaves and treat pests and diseases found in a timely manner. You can use some biopesticides, such as avermectins, carbendazim, etc., to prevent and control. Keep the indoor humidity high in summer, and the indoor humidity is low, which may easily cause the leaves of succulent plants to dry. You can place some hydroponic plants indoors or use a humidifier to increase the indoor humidity.
The high temperature environment of 37 ° C in summer puts forward higher requirements for the maintenance of succulents. By selecting heat-resistant varieties, reasonable watering, shading and cooling, ventilation, proper fertilization, preventing pests and diseases, and maintaining indoor humidity, we can effectively help succulents spend the hot summer. I hope this maintenance guide will bring a cool summer to your succulents!
