How to grow Pea Egg Succulents for a Full Pot
Are you curious about how to grow Pea Egg succulents to fill the pot, as well as the cultivation methods and precautions for Pea Egg plants? The following provides a detailed introduction.
Today, I will introduce a very adorable and amusing succulent plant, the Pea Egg. Also known as Peach Egg, it has thick and round leaves, resembling little pigeon eggs, plump and very cute. So how should Pea Egg be cultivated to maintain its high aesthetic value? Let's talk about it in detail below.
I. Watering
To make the leaves of the Pea Egg plumper and rounder, mastering how to water is very important. It's not as many people imagine that more watering will make the leaves丰满. Instead, it's important to control the water appropriately, because only by doing so can its leaves learn to store water better. In spring and autumn, when Pea Egg grows more vigorously, watering once every ten days or so is sufficient. Make sure to water thoroughly each time, and too frequent watering can cause the leaves to fall off. In winter and summer, the amount of watering should be reduced.
II. Light
If you want the Pea Egg to have beautiful colors, adequate lighting is essential to make it show a beautiful pink color. In summer, place it in a place with scattered light, avoiding direct sunlight. In other seasons, it can be placed in the sunlight.
III. Fertilizing
Fertilizing is also very important. Spring and autumn are the peak growing seasons for Pea Egg, and it's important to ensure that the plant doesn't lack fertilizer during this time. Use a thin organic fertilizer once every half month.
IV. Precautions
When planting Pea Egg, be sure to choose a smaller pot, smaller than the plant itself. If the pot is too large, it will make the Pea Egg more susceptible to pests and diseases.
If the leaves fall off due to improper care, don't throw them away. This can be used for propagation by leaf insertion. Simply let the wound of the leaf dry and then insert it into moist soil, and it will survive.
The above is a comprehensive introduction to how to grow Pea Egg succulents to fill the pot, as well as the cultivation methods and precautions for Pea Egg plants. I hope it brings some knowledge about green plants to plant enthusiasts.
