Sedum succulent plants are popular in the flower market in recent years due to their unique shape and vitality. In the process of maintaining Sedum succulents, solar temperature is an important factor affecting their growth. This article will analyze the suitable solar temperature for Sedum succulents and provide related maintenance skills to help you grow healthy Sedum succulents.
Sedum succulent plants suitable solar temperature1. Sedum succulent plants' adaptability to solar temperature
Sedum succulent plants are native to Southwest China, have strong adaptability, and have loose requirements for solar temperature. The suitable solar temperature range for Sedum succulent plants is between 15°C and 35°C. Within this suitable temperature range, Sedum succulent plants can grow and reproduce normally.
2. The impact of high or low solar temperature on Sedum succulent plants
(1) High solar temperature: When the solar temperature exceeds 35°C, the growth of Sedum succulent plants will be inhibited, and even the leaves will wither and die. High temperatures can also damage the plant's roots, affecting its nutrient absorption.
(2) Low solar temperature: When the solar temperature is below 15°C, the growth rate of Sedum succulent plants will slow down, and they may even enter a dormant state. Long-term low temperatures can cause plant frostbite, affecting their growth.
Sedum succulent plant maintenance skills1. Control lighting time
Sedum succulent plants have high light requirements, but long-term exposure to strong sunlight can cause damage to them. During maintenance, the lighting time should be appropriately controlled, providing 4-6 hours of scattered light or direct sunlight each day.
2. Maintain suitable soil moisture
Sedum succulent plants have relatively low water requirements, but excessive dryness or moisture can affect their growth. During maintenance, the soil should be kept moist but avoid waterlogging. When watering, a small amount of water should be used multiple times to avoid root washout.
3. Reasonable fertilization
Sedum succulent plants do not require a high amount of fertilizer, but during the vigorous growth period, appropriate fertilization can promote their growth. When fertilizing, a low-nitrogen, high-phosphorus, and potassium compound fertilizer can be chosen, applied once every 20 days.
4. Pay attention to ventilation
A good ventilation environment helps the growth of Sedum succulent plants. During maintenance, indoor air circulation should be maintained to avoid a hot and humid environment.
The suitable solar temperature for Sedum succulent plants is between 15°C and 35°C. During maintenance, it is necessary to control lighting time, maintain suitable soil moisture, fertilize reasonably, and pay attention to ventilation to grow healthy Sedum succulent plants.
