Technique of Inverted Cultivation for Stonecrop
Comprehensively analyzing the knowledge about the succulent plant Echeveria, this technique of inverted cultivation for Echeveria, please see the detailed introduction below.
Echeveria belongs to the Crassulaceae family and is a perennial evergreen succulent plant. There are usually two methods when cultivating Echeveria leaves: one is to insert the base of the leaf into the soil; the other is to place the leaf flat on the soil surface.
Through years of practice, the author has discovered the inverted cultivation method for Echeveria leaves. This method involves inserting the tip of the leaf into the soil by more than half. After a week, new roots will grow downwards into the soil at the base of the leaf, while a tuft of small leaves will grow upwards. The old leaves will gradually wither and shrink, and soon they can be transplanted. The advantages of this cultivation method are:
1. Burying the leaf tip in the soil, protected by its epidermis layer, even if the soil is relatively moist, the leaf is less likely to be infected by bacteria and rot.
2. When the soil surface is relatively dry, since a part of the leaf is inserted into the soil, the leaf can absorb moisture from the soil through osmosis, preventing the leaf from drying out and dying. Using the inverted leaf method to cultivate Echeveria overcomes the shortcomings of the general leaf cultivation method, offering a rough management and high survival rate cultivation technique.
