An in-depth explanation for netizens on how to care for succulents, including the methods and precautions for repotting and growing succulents, with specific details as follows:
Nowadays, more and more people are growing succulents. As long as we care for them a bit better, they can display a beautiful state. During the process of caring for succulents, we need to repot them regularly because they continue to grow. If the pot is too small, it will look unappealing. Initially, we cannot use a large pot, only a small one. Therefore, once they grow bigger, we need to repot them into a larger pot. How should we repot and when is the most suitable time to do so?
When growing succulents, it is crucial to choose the right time for repotting. The best time to repot is during their growing season. When do they grow? And when don't they grow? They don't grow during high temperatures or low temperatures. If it's summer and the temperature consistently exceeds 30 degrees, do not repot your succulents. If the temperature is below 30 degrees, you can repot them. At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the temperature is not very high. We just need to check the weather forecast, which can now predict more than 10 days in advance. As long as the lowest temperature is above 10 degrees and the highest temperature is below 30 degrees, and this can be sustained for more than a week, we can definitely repot them. After repotting, their roots will grow quickly, and by the time summer comes, there won't be any issues.
When repotting succulents, it is essential to master the method. First, remove the soil and trim the roots, removing all the soil and cutting off the fine roots, while keeping the thicker ones. If they are too long, you can trim them appropriately. After the roots are trimmed, place them in a shady and well-ventilated area for two to three days. After drying, prepare a well-draining soil with a moisture content of 30% to 50%, and plant them directly.
After planting, place them in a dappled light environment. After three to five days, when the soil is completely dry, water them thoroughly. Don't forget to add some root stimulator to the water. This will help them grow roots quickly. Once the roots have grown, they will start to grow gradually. When the growth point starts to grow明显, gradually move them to the area with the most sunlight and add some fertilizer to help them recover quickly. The roots will also fill the pot quickly. If you want to repot your succulents, master the method and choose the right time, and you will definitely not encounter any problems.
