It aims to meet the needs of plant enthusiasts to understand the cultivation of Bear's Child, as well as inform them of the precautions to take in daily maintenance. We start with the "Growth Diary of Bear's Child" by plant enthusiast (Ermu Flower Man).
I重新整理 the growth history of my Bear's Child, which has been six years this year. It has been a tough journey~ Bear's Child is actually quite easy to cultivate. It prefers ample sunlight (sunlight: one of the two key factors for thick leaves), and using coarse sand particles with breathable soil is best, mixed with some peat soil can avoid the need to change the soil for several years. Once the soil is properly configured, choosing a ceramic pot with a larger drainage hole is ideal. Maintaining some moisture is important for growth and leaf thickness. (Water: the second key factor for thick leaves)
Many people say that young Bear's Children cannot be leaf-propagated, but there is a 100% leaf-propagation method that is actually still a cutting method. No matter how it is planted, survival is the best. Why do the young plants purchased usually have 4-6 leaves? Because successful propagation with 4-6 leaves is quite high, so enthusiasts who enjoy propagating and giving plants to friends, relatives, and elders can try this cutting method more often.
In addition, Bear's Child is one of the few succulents that can self-pollinate. If Bear's Child flowers, you can simply brush the pollen on the stigma with a brush to produce seeds, which can then be successfully sown.
Let's now understand the precautions for Bear's Child.
The main precaution is the care during the summer. In the summer, Bear's Child enters a dormant state, gradually reducing water intake. It is best not to expose Bear's Child to direct sunlight during the dormant period. You can place it in a well-lit environment, increase ventilation to reduce humidity, and spray water to clean the leaves. Be careful not to let the water stay in the leaf center for a long time, as this can cause rot.
The above is the detailed content of the cultivation methods and precautions for Bear's Child. I hope it can be of help to you!
