DIY Tool for Propagating Succulents
This article introduces the knowledge of succulents, including a DIY tool for promoting root growth in succulents. Let's take a look together.
It's actually quite easy to propagate roots in succulents. Below is a simple root propagation device made by a flower enthusiast using just a plastic bottle.
Author's statement: The Black Prince got rotten roots from overwatering, so I cut off the rotten part and let it regrow roots. The roots of the Basalchirorin purchased online were not in good condition either, so I also let it regrow roots. I made a propagation tool that I found very useful and want to show off.
Instructions: Cut a plastic mineral water bottle at the 2/3 mark, fill the bottle with clean water but not too full. Invert the top part of the bottle and place it on the body, then put the Black Prince and Basalchirorin that need to root through the opening. I removed the cap from the mineral water bottle because the Black Prince and Basalchirorin are large enough not to fall into the water through the opening. If it's a very small succulent that needs to root, you can keep the cap and punch a few holes in it to ensure the moisture can rise.
In the photo, both the Black Prince and Basalchirorin have started to grow roots, hooray.
Results:
Ps: After the roots have grown, the potted plant still needs an adaptation process, so it's not all settled after the roots grow. Of course, flower enthusiasts can try using this simple device for hydroponics, or experiment to see if succulents can keep growing like this. More results need to be discovered by the flower enthusiasts themselves.
The introduction above () is about the detailed explanation of the DIY succulent root propagation tool (pictured), hoping to bring some floral knowledge to flower enthusiasts.
