"If the flesh is well controlled, it will grow better." It is precisely because of this that many people have been "deceived", and many people who like to raise more meat have also been deceived.
"Control" can be understood as "control", so what is "control"? Take water control as an example, how often should the succulents be watered? How long is this? Ten days? 30 days or 60 days?
Frankly, if you ask 10 flower friends, they will probably give 10 different times to water the flowers. So, this is the current situation.
Simple "control" involves not only water, but also light, earth, wind, temperature, and heat, all of which are related to the word "control".
1. Water control
For succulents, watering is the most critical, but it cannot be completely ignored, first of all, to ensure the health of the succulents.
The same goes for strong succulents, with well-developed root systems. If you just buy a pot and only think about controlling the water, then your capillaries will be used up, and then your plant will continue to shrink due to lack of water, and finally, the whole plant will be hollowed out.
The best way to control the water, not to touch the elephant blindly, is to look at the leaves. When the potting soil is dry, observe from the bottom to the top to see if the leaves are wilting, and water them in time. The process is not fixed, it can be ten days, it can be thirty days, it can be sixty days, or even longer.
Remember, for succulents, water control is not calculated according to the day, but according to the second level of the leaves. Especially in the South and the South, there is a big difference.
2. Wind control
Many videos of raising succulents have very good effects, especially when watering succulents, you can directly water succulents without installing a sprinkler on the water pipe. It is also possible to put the succulent in a large basin. It may sound cool, but if you really want to learn, then you have to be sensible.
If it's outside and has good air circulation, that's fine.
But if it is in a place with poor air circulation, it can only be described as "dead". If the leaves and trunk of the potted plant are soaked in water, then it is easy for heart orchid to occur.
If it is kept indoors, the ventilation is not good, you can water a small amount, do not let the leaves and trunk be soaked with water, even if you accidentally get wet, you should discharge it in time, use absorbent paper to blot it dry, do not leave a chance for stagnant water, of course, it is best to have a ventilated environment.
3. Light control
Light is also the most important point of succulents, control light, ensure that succulents within eight hours, can not have more than eight hours, otherwise it will have an adverse impact on the growth of succulents.
There is a great demand for sunlight on the open and succulent, but the sunlight on the closed balcony should not exceed eight hours, otherwise it will be long and dull. He'd have to figure out a way to brighten up the lights here.
There are many ways to do this, such as increasing the height of the succulent and giving it plenty of sunlight. It is best to cooperate with the supplemental light,
My favorite thing to do is to take it out the window and bask in the sun after watering, so that it will be more beautiful.
4. Temperature regulation
Succulents are afraid of heat, cold, and heat. Its optimal growth temperature is 5~30 °C, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, which is beneficial to the growth of succulents.
Therefore, for succulents, the most important thing is temperature. However, if it is in the field or in broad daylight, the temperature difference between day and night is less than 10°C, it must be controlled accordingly.
There are also many ways to find it on the Internet, but although my place is not as good as Yunnan, it is also very good for meat, so I didn't use it anymore.
5. Fertilization control
Succulents need to be fertilized during their growth period, and it is impossible to thrive with wheat stones, peat, and a little aerial rooting.
The simplest one is the slow-release fertilizer, which is a special fertilizer for succulents, in spring and autumn, according to the size of the succulents, sprinkle more than a dozen grains. Two years ago, he bought a bottle, and it hasn't been used up until now, it's really cheap, if you are interested, you can go and see it, the price is not expensive.
When it comes to fertilization, some plant raw materials are indispensable, and when cultivating succulents, you can mix 80 percent of Maifan stone and 20 percent peat to meet the needs of most succulents.
After planting, sprinkle a layer of slow-acting fertilizer in the pot, which can be used for slow-release fertilizer in spring and autumn.
It doesn't matter if it doesn't grow tall, just sprinkle some slow-acting fertilizer on it in the future.
End:
Raising flowers, pay attention to the word "control", this is my understanding of "control", for others, especially novices, to think more, see more, do more, so as to raise more flesh better.
