The seedlings growing in the middle may be propagated by the plant itself through leaf cutting, cuttage, etc. In this case, the seedlings and There is a certain genetic relationship between the mother plant.
2. Seed reproduction Some succulent plants will flower and bear fruit on their own during growth, and the produced seeds will germinate and grow into seedlings under appropriate conditions. In this case, there is no genetic relationship between the seedlings and the mother plant.
3. Insects infect some pests, such as aphids, whiteflies, etc., which will reproduce on succulent plants, causing abnormal plant growth. These pests will absorb nutrients from the plants, causing abnormal growth points of the plants, thus growing seedlings in the middle.
4. Improper maintenance. Maintenance problems such as excessive watering, improper fertilization, and insufficient light can also lead to seedlings growing among succulent plants. These factors will affect the normal growth of plants and cause abnormalities in their growth points. Coping strategies 1.

(2) Reasonably apply fertilizer and choose fertilizer suitable for the growth of succulent plants.
(3) Ensure sufficient light and avoid being in a dark environment for long periods of time.
There are many reasons for growing seedlings among succulent plants, including plant reproduction, seed reproduction, pest infection and improper maintenance.
