What to do if a succulent grows too long and techniques for dealing with succulent stems.

What should I do if the meat pole is too long

Succulent plants are beautiful by their compact and plump plant types, but long stems often appear during maintenance. When the fleshy pole is found to be abnormally elongated, it not only affects the ornamental value, but may also lead to an imbalance in the plant structure. This article will systematically analyze the causes of excessive growth and provide two mainstream solutions to help you restore your fleshy and refined form. Analysis of the causes of fleshy growth caused by insufficient light. When the average daily light is less than 4 hours, fleshy growth will compete for light source by lengthening the stems, forming a thin and weak rod-like structure. This kind of long old pile is different from the naturally formed thick old pile. It is called "false old pile" and is common in leaf seedlings and bottom lateral buds. Growth hormone imbalance shows that excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer will upset the balance of plant hormones and stimulate longitudinal cell growth. Especially during the peak growth season in spring and autumn, improper fertilization will accelerate the height of stems and form a top-heavy shape. Meaty and long treatment plan Ornamental preservation plan If you appreciate the hanging form, you can choose a deep-tube flowerpot to fix it. Paying 3-5cm of volcanic rock on the basin surface not only increases the weight, but also promotes ventilation at the bottom. Rotate the flowerpot regularly to ensure uniform light reception and avoid excessive growth on one side. Operation Guide for Beheading Rebirth: Beheading in the morning on sunny spring days: 1. After disinfecting the knives with alcohol, keep 2-3 layers of leaves of the mother plant and cut them flat. Beheading seedlings remove the bottom 3 leaves to create a rooting area 3. Apply carbendazim powder to the incision of the mother strain to prevent infection 4. Leave the beheading seedlings in a cool place for 5-7 days until the incision is scarred. Maintenance points after beheading: Environmental control standards. Place the mother plants in a ventilated place with scattered light, and keep the air humidity ≤60%. The beheading seedlings are planted with tidal soil: the ratio of vermiculite + peat soil is 7:3, and it can be slightly moist to avoid putrefaction caused by stagnant water. Rooting promotion techniques HB101 vital element can be applied during the rooting period of beheading seedlings (about 15-20 days), diluted at a ratio of 1:2000, and sprayed once a week. After the new roots grow to 2 cm, gradually transition to normal maintenance.

By scientifically controlling light and reasonable pruning, you can regain your life by growing too much flesh. It is recommended to observe the plant type every month and adjust the maintenance plan in a timely manner. Mastering beheading reproduction technology can not only solve the problem of excessive growth, but also achieve large-scale cultivation of succulent plants.
