What to do if succulents don't root
Today's small experience sharing: How to deal with succulents not rooting and methods to encourage root growth in succulents, here are some related experiences in flower planting for your detailed reference.
It's feared to encounter the situation where succulents don't root. After planting succulents, if there are no changes for a long time and the leaves start to wrinkle, it is a typical case of僵 seedlings, which can be caused by a variety of issues. It could be due to changes in the environment or temperature不适, among many factors that can affect the rooting of succulents.
Actually, there are many ways to mitigate僵 seedlings in succulents. For example, the simplest method is the "water induction method." Find a mineral water bottle, cut it in half, fill it with water, and place the succulent on top of the bottle. In a high-humidity environment, the roots of the succulents will also grow out quickly. This is a way to encourage root growth and the effect is very noticeable. Any plant enjoys a humid environment; the higher the humidity, the more active the plant, and the faster the cell division, thus roots grow faster.
Water induction is one of the methods. After the roots grow, it needs to be replanted in the soil. Besides the water induction method, soft granular substrates can also be used, such as akadama soil, which is considered the pinnacle among all types of flower soils. It is suitable for the growth of any type of plant and can help plants grow new roots in a short time.
Akadama soil contains very few bacteria and pathogens and exists in granular form, which has some water absorption capabilities and can also maintain moisture. It is the most suitable soil for plant growth. Akadama soil is relatively expensive, and many people are reluctant to purchase it. Besides using akadama soil to plant succulents, there is also "multi-component soil," which is also fine granular and much cheaper than akadama soil, with a good effect as well.

Multi-component soil is clean and dust-free, making it very suitable for growing succulents, without making the house messy and dusty. It can also solve the problem of non-rooting succulents. Trim the roots of the succulents and place them directly on the surface of the multi-component soil, water thoroughly, and keep them in a shady place. Then, wait for the roots to grow.
Since multi-component soil is granular, the evaporation of water is relatively fast, so you need to water every 3-5 days. In a slightly damp environment, it is more conducive to the rooting of succulents. When the new roots of the succulents grow out, they will directly penetrate into the multi-component soil, and there is no need for secondary planting, which will not hurt the roots of the succulents.
The roots of succulents grown in multi-component soil are the most developed. The large gaps between the granules allow the roots of succulents to spread more. Planting succulents with multi-component soil is less likely to rot the roots, watering is more even, and very conducive to root growth. Many people worry about the soil for growing succulents, which can make the house messy. In this case, multi-component soil can replace ordinary nutrient-rich soil and also grow succulents well.
There are many types of soil for planting succulents, and you can purchase them according to personal needs. Everyone has a different understanding of soil, but as long as it can help succulents grow new roots, it is good matrix soil.
