How to keep the succulent plant "Sedum" safe during the summer
Do you know these? Tips for keeping Sedum safe during the summer and maintaining the plant's stability during the hot season, including some small experiences in green plant care, are as follows:
Sedum is also one of the succulents in the genus Crassula. There are new varieties every year in the market, but overall, fewer people cultivate Sedum. Sedum grows quite large and takes up a lot of space, so it is usually not suitable for extensive indoor care and is best cultivated outdoors.
Sedum grows fastest in the spring when temperatures are rising. The demand for water and nutrients also increases gradually. Before the local temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius, it is essential to water the Sedum at home generously, about once a week. Spring is the time when Sedum does not need water control, and it is important not only to water but also to fertilize.

Therefore, it is necessary to water the Sedum generously in the spring, the reason being to allow the plant to absorb and store enough water, which will help it better enter dormancy during the summer. In the long period of dormancy, all the leaves of Sedum will fall off, and the plant will rely solely on the water inside the main stem. If there is not enough water stored during the early stages, the leaves will fall off completely, including the small leaves at the top, eventually leaving only a bare stem.
Sedum is highly sensitive to seasonal temperature changes. Both high and low temperatures are not conducive to its growth. Many friends find that their Sedum plants at home have no leaves left by the time summer arrives. In such cases, it is still very serious for the later growth of the plant, and some of the small leaves at the top should be preserved.
