Today, a meat friend asked Elder Tang: Can the succulent fire sacrifice be leaf cuttings? Why don't I sprout?
Fire sacrifice out of state
Fire sacrifice can be said to be one of the most skinny succulent varieties in summer, just "into the pit" that time I did not know enough about its skin solidity, maintenance is still careful, a summer high temperature weather to quickly give it shade, rain and water control, afraid of its sunburn and rotten roots and rot and other conditions. But I had my heart set on the bright moon, but the bright moon shone in the ditch - under careful care, it was not the longer the fire sacrifice, the better, but the crazy disciple, so I decided to change my maintenance method.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="16" >how is my fire festival maintained in the summer now? </h1>
First of all, the picture below was taken by me just going upstairs, and the measured temperature under the shade net reached more than 40 ° C, and even at such a high temperature, my pot of fire sacrifice was completely unshadowed, so I let it be basking outside. From the picture, we can see that the leaves of the fire festival do not have any sunburn, and even retain a little red, which is really worthy of the super skinny summer type succulent variety!

Secondly, there has been a lot of rain recently, my fire sacrifice has not done any measures to cover the rain, other succulents have also been rained before, for safety, they have been covered by rain, but the fire sacrifice is directly hung outside to continue to rain - after the shower, after the exposure to the sun and then continue to rain... Because of the good ventilation conditions of the maintenance environment and sufficient moisture, the leaves of the fire sacrifice, although severely faded, still grow well, and they do not grow in sufficient light.

If you think that you can't raise a fire festival, or if it is always a disciple after the shade in the summer, then you may wish to try to raise it all like me, I believe the result will not disappoint you. Of course, if the fire sacrifice has been shaded before, it must not be thrown out directly to the sun, and the light must be increased step by step, otherwise the fire sacrifice will be sunburned, and the heavy one will be directly sunburned. In addition, if the fire festival has a bad root system, or if the pot soil lacks water, it must not be exposed to the sun, otherwise we are very likely to harvest an empty pot.

Fire sacrifice is not only easy to raise, but also very good to reproduce, but because of the thin leaves, it can be planted but the success rate is not high. Meat lovers who try the leaf fire festival will find that its leaves are left in the pot for a long time without moving, and then even if the root system grows smoothly, it will take a long time to germinate. However, once the leaves of the fire festival germinate, the growth rate is absolutely leveraged, and it can grow from "nasal feces seedlings" to about 10 centimeters in a few months, and if we top it as soon as possible, it will become a multi-headed group state.

Since the success rate of fire sacrifice leaf cuttings is not high, why is it said that "it is very good to breed"? Don't worry! Don't we have other ways of reproduction that we don't say? In addition to the use of leaf cuttings and seeds to reproduce, the fire festival can also be propagated, and this is its main method of reproduction - not only the success rate is close to 100%, but also simple to operate and grow faster after survival, and it can grow into a large bush in 1-2 months.

Fire sacrifice cuttings, like other succulents, are best performed in spring and autumn: we cut off their healthy branches, then break off 1-2 pairs of bottom leaves, smear some carbendazim or methyltobuzin in a ventilated place, leave them to dry for about 3-5 days, and then take the cuttings into the granular soil. Next, we will water a small amount to keep the pot soil slightly damp, and then the fire sacrifice of the cuttings can be rooted in about 10 days, do you think it is super simple?
