Many flower enthusiasts actually enjoy growing succulents but find it difficult to do so, and it's hard for beginners to get started. However, there's no need to worry. Today, let's organize how to start growing succulents, and flower enthusiasts, let's take a look together with us~
One: Choose the Right Variety
First of all, we need to choose the right succulent variety. Since we are beginners at gardening, we may not master the key points of care very well, so everyone should choose a succulent variety that suits them. Don't choose varieties that are difficult to care for right away, as this not only affects our confidence in growing succulents but also wastes money. It's best to start with some common succulents.
Common succulents suitable for beginners: Purple弦月, Gold Grass, Peach Eggs, Love Vine, Snowflake Grass, Cobweb 卷绢, Purple Rice, Sunflower, etc.
Two: Choose a Pot
The pot used for growing succulents is also very important. When taking care of them, make sure to choose the right pot. I love collecting succulent pots, and some are really cute. When growing succulents, we should not only look at the appearance of the pot but also choose a pot with good ventilation. Ventilation is very important for succulents.

I suggest prioritizing pots with good ventilation, such as purple sand pots. If you find purple sand pots a bit expensive, you can also try cheaper terra cotta pots, which are also very useful and have good ventilation and drainage.
If you want to propagate succulents by leaf cutting at first, you can use yogurt containers or jelly containers, and then transplant them into pots after they have rooted.
Three: Choose Soil
Soil is also a very important aspect. When growing succulents, you must use soil with good water permeability and ventilation. Unlike other plants, succulents need a certain water retention effect. I suggest using some soil with very good water permeability and ventilation, such as river sand, and the commonly used vermiculite, which are both good for growing succulents.
