What are the winter care methods for succulents?
Succulents prefer a warm growing environment, so winter is a challenge for them. If the care is not thorough, we will have to say goodbye to our beloved succulents. Today, let's take a look at the winter care methods for succulents.
Winter care methods for succulents: Temperature
Most succulents are not cold-resistant and need to maintain a temperature above 10 degrees Celsius in winter. Some succulents can survive in temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius, but to ensure the safe wintering of succulents, it's best to keep the temperature above 10 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is insufficient, we can place the succulents in a polystyrene box or cover them with a glass cover to provide good insulation.
Light
Succulents enjoy sunlight, except for the dewdrop and十二卷 types. Most succulents require abundant sunlight to grow. In summer, we need to provide shade to prevent sunburn, but in winter, the sunlight is gentle, and we can allow the succulents to receive ample light. It's best to place them on a sunny balcony or windowsill, which also helps keep them warm.
Watering
Succulents are divided into summer and winter planting types. The summer planting types enter dormancy in winter, their growth essentially stops, and their water demand is very low, so we can reduce or stop watering, allowing the succulents to survive the winter safely. The winter planting types, on the other hand, are in their growing period in winter, so we need to ensure adequate water supply. However, it's best to water in the afternoon when the temperature is higher, as this minimizes the stimulation to the roots.
