Introduction to succulent plants Succulent plants, as the name suggests, refer to those plants with thick and fleshy leaves or stems. They originate in arid and semi-arid areas and have strong drought tolerance. In our country, there are many types of succulent plants, and common ones include Crassulaceae, Cactus, Caryophyllaceae, etc. Precautions for watering just-planted succulent plants 1. Watering timing The root system of just-planted succulent plants has not yet fully recovered, so watering timing is crucial. It is not advisable to water within 3-5 days after planting. Wait until the root system gradually adapts to the new environment and grows new root hairs before watering.
2. Watering method When watering, you should choose to do it in the morning or evening to avoid direct sunlight. There are two watering methods: spraying and dipping pots. Spraying is suitable for succulent plants with thin leaves, such as Crassulaceae; dipping pots are suitable for succulent plants with developed roots, such as the Cactus family.
3. Watering frequency The water demand of succulent plants is relatively low. The watering frequency should be adjusted according to the season, climate and soil conditions. Water every 5-7 days in summer and every 10-15 days in winter. During the period of vigorous growth, the watering frequency can be appropriately increased.
4. Precautions for watering (1) Avoid standing water: When watering, pay attention to the soil to ensure that water can penetrate into the vicinity of the roots to avoid standing water causing root rot.
(2) Control the amount of water: When watering, control the amount of water to prevent too much water from seeping into the leaves, causing the leaves to rot.
(3) Choose the right water source: Try to use tap water, rainwater or filtered water for watering, and avoid using water sources that contain more chloride ions and heavy metals.
