How to water succulents in summer
Many succulent enthusiasts don't know how to water their succulents in summer. Today, the editor will introduce this to everyone, so let's take a look.
The method of watering succulents in summer: it's best to water in the evening
When watering succulents in summer, it's best to do it in the evening. If we water them in the morning, after a day of consumption, the succulents can absorb very little water. And if it's too hot at noon, watering can easily stimulate the roots of the succulents, which is not conducive to their growth. Watering in the evening is different; the sunlight is not as strong then, and the water doesn't evaporate as quickly, allowing the succulents to absorb the water fully.
Pay attention to ventilation when watering
After watering succulents in summer, it's essential to maintain good ventilation. Since the temperature is relatively high both during the day and at night in summer, if the succulents are in a very stuffy environment after watering, their roots can easily rot, and the leaves may also develop black rot or waterlogging. Therefore, it's necessary to maintain good ventilation after watering.
Extend the watering frequency
In summer, most succulents are in a state of dormancy or semi-dormancy, and their growth rate is very slow. Therefore, their demand for water is also very low. So, when watering succulents in summer, you should control the amount and extend the interval between waterings. Don't worry that the succulents will die from drought; just spray some water on them occasionally.
