How to plant succulents
1. Good potting soil is very important for growing succulents
Although succulents can survive in sand, to make them grow more smoothly, stronger, and more beautiful, the soil is very important. You need to ensure that the potting soil is loose, does not stick together, and does not compact, and must be nutritious, well-draining, not prone to waterlogging and compacting, and well-aerated.
In addition, it should have certain nutrients. Therefore, when preparing the soil, add peat and decomposed leaf soil, and you can also add sandy soil, vermiculite, perlite, or mica stone, etc., to create a soil that does not clump together and is rich in humus. Such soil allows succulents to grow continuously and become fatter and more beautiful.
2. Light is very important for growing succulents
When the temperature is between 15 to 28 degrees Celsius, this is the most suitable temperature for the growth of succulents, and it is also the fastest growing period. At this time, you can increase the light, appropriately expose them to the sun, and also supplement nutrients with some fertilizers, such as a small amount of organic fertilizer, slow-release fertilizer, or chemical fertilizer. Make sure to apply a small amount of fertilizer at a time, and do not apply too much fertilizer at once, nor do you need to fertilize frequently.
