How to cultivate crystal succulents for healthy growthA guide to the article: This article discusses how to cultivate crystal succulents for healthy growth and the methods for growing crystal cacti in the field of green plants and flowers. Detailed introduction follows.Talking about the crystal cacti, it is quite interesting. I remember laughing when I first saw this variety and said that the plant looks like jelly. This type of succulent is also known as "Noble Grass," indicating that it is relatively small, usually growing only 5-6 centimeters in height. The leaves are thick and mostly transparent, as they grow alternately, sometimes resembling lotus flowers. So how should we care for such a cute succulent plant at home?Firstly, we need to prepare soil suitable for the growth of crystal cacti. We usually mix peat soil and sandy soil, which has good ventilation and drainage properties, allowing the succulent plant's roots to breathe better. If we are using leaf propagation, we can start with a smaller pot. Many plant enthusiasts prefer to choose a larger pot right away, which makes it difficult to control the amount of watering, or even the amount of fertilizer later on, which is not conducive to plant growth. Therefore, choosing a moderately sized pot and later upgrading to a larger one for maintenance is best.We usually start planting crystal cacti in the spring, as spring is the season of growth, which is beneficial for crystal cacti to root. Spring and autumn are the peak growing seasons for crystal cacti. We need to keep the potting soil moist and apply some fertilizer during the growing period, ensuring sufficient nutrients and adequate sunlight, which will make the leaves we care for more transparent and green.We also need to pay attention to watering crystal cacti, as excessive watering can easily cause root rot and yellowing of the leaves. Therefore, we should water according to the dryness or moisture of the potting soil. If we are not sure whether the inside of the potting soil is also dry, we can insert a stick into the pot, pull it out, and check if there is soil on the stick. If there is, we can temporarily skip watering; otherwise, we need to water.Watering must be thorough, and it should be poured directly onto the soil without getting on the leaves. Because water droplets can absorb a lot of energy under sunlight, they can easily burn our beautiful leaves, which would not look good.In summer and winter, we need to be more vigilant in caring for crystal cacti, as hot summers and cold winters can both lead to dormancy. In the summer, especially at noon, we need to place the crystal cacti in a shady place to effectively lower the temperature and prevent dormancy. In winter, we should keep the crystal cacti indoors to raise the temperature of their growing environment and expose them to more sunlight.Crystal cacti really look very beautiful and many friends like to keep them at home. In fact, you can place a pot in your study or office as well.The comprehensive knowledge on how to cultivate crystal succulents for healthy growth and the methods for growing crystal cacti introduced by Green Enthusiast Network [www.lvzhimi.com] is hoped to be helpful to you.
