How to care for a龟甲龙 - A lesson learned from blood
If you want to know about the care of the succulent plant 龟甲龙, how to care for it - A lesson learned from blood, the following details will be shared.
When learning how to care for a 龟甲龙, flower friends should also look at some of their experience and lessons. The 龟甲龙 in this article has died, although its bulb still looks solid and the turtle pattern is quite clear, it has already died, as the meat inside the "turtle shell" has been eaten away.
It has been 2 years since this 龟甲龙 was raised. Before, the understanding of 龟甲龙 was that it was easy to care for, with a strong vitality, and no pests or diseases. During summer, it was normal to water it without any pressure. In winter, it shed leaves and entered dormancy, stopped watering, and as spring warmed up, it always produced new buds as long as water was gradually given.
But this time it really died, and the reason was this. In March and April, this 龟甲龙 produced another strong new shoot, so I hung its branches on a clothes-drying rod in the house, wanting it to climb and grow. However, as it got into summer and the weather was very hot, the delicate green leaves wrapped around the stainless steel rod roasted by the sun, and many leaves turned yellow. So I took off all the leaves of the 龟甲龙, letting it rely on the strength of its own branches to support its growth. Unfortunately, during the midsummer, there were frequent thunderstorms, and the branches of the 龟甲龙 had no support, and the main stem was blown off directly by the strong wind. I didn't notice this for a while, and because there was a lot of rain and high temperatures at that time, the wound on the branch had no shade and healed smoothly without stopping the water. The wound became a channel for bacteria to invade, eventually leading to the entire bulb rotting empty.
Blood教训:
1. Climbing plants should not be allowed to climb on metal rods, as the rods absorb heat in the summer and the branches and leaves cannot withstand it.
2. After 龟甲龙 produces new branches, the main branch should be cut, which can stimulate more branches to grow, preventing too much growth pressure on a single main branch.
3. In the summer, succulents should definitely not be kept outdoors, as it really does no good...
