How to water succulents

The fleshy watering method has been puzzling flower lovers, with more rotten roots and less water shortage. How much succulents are watered is related to many factors: regional climate, weather, season, temperature, ventilation, succulents' habits, soil, flowerpot material, daily sunshine time, placement position, succulents' state, succulents' size and so on. Water shortage signal

Whether it is a succulent plant in desert or mountainous area, there is a lot of water in its stems and leaves, so the amount of water must not be too much. Moreover, succulents will consume the water of their leaves to supply the needed nutrients in the case of very short of water, and then the leaves at the bottom will slowly dry up; In addition, the leaves of apricot trees and some Sedum plants wrinkle when they are short of water; Other succulent leaves will soften when they are short of water, which is their watering signal.

When the leaves are wrinkled or softened, they will recover immediately the next day after watering, and the recovery speed will be slower on the third day. If it doesn't recover after watering for a long time, it must be that the root system is broken and the plants can't absorb dehydration.

However, sometimes the leaves wrinkle and become soft, which is not necessarily a lack of water. This needs to be judged according to your usual watering time and recent weather conditions. Generally speaking, if there is water shortage, the leaves will be full the next day if you water them that night. But if you don't change your state for a few days after watering, you need to pay attention. This situation is generally that the root system of the plant has not grown, or the original root system has rotted. At this time, you can pull the meat out of the soil, clean up the roots, and put it into dry soil for planting.

Watering time: it is best to water in the evening or afternoon in spring, summer and autumn, and it is best to water at noon in winter, because the temperature is too low. When watering, water along the edge of the flowerpot, so as not to splash water on the leaves. Try to avoid water flowing into the center of the blade to form stagnant water, which will gather sunlight to one point like a magnifying glass and directly burn the blade. If you accidentally fall to the center of the blade, you can blow off the water droplets or dry them with a paper towel.

Watering interval: on the first day of admission, it is indeed possible to water regularly, such as once a week and once a month-although this way can make most succulents survive, it is not very good. Because the weather is changeable, the need and the material of the flowerpot also determine the evaporation of water, and there are many other factors mentioned above, which make it impossible to generalize the watering interval. Here are some of the more important ones to explain, which is also the experience I have summed up over the years.

Regional climate and watering: I always think this is the most important condition to determine the growth of succulents. Although meat can be raised all over the country, if you are lucky enough to live in a climate suitable for the growth of succulents, you can save a lot of thought and time, and succulents can grow well themselves. For example, in the summer in Weihai, Shandong Province, the highest temperature in 20xx is only 30 degrees, which lasts only about 10 day, and then falls back to above 23C -28 degrees every day, and because it is a coastal city, the actual temperature will be lower and very cool because the sea breeze blows constantly every day. For succulents, this climate almost directly skips the characteristics of dormancy in summer, and succulents are almost in a state of growth, so you can safely water them. However, there is still a mild and hot climate above 35 degrees or even 40 degrees in the south, especially in the southwest, where the basin climate is very sultry and the wind speed is very small. This hot and humid environment will put succulents to sleep, so they can't be watered any more, so most succulents in the local area need to spend the summer without water. However, if water is cut off for a long time, it may dry up directly. You can add some water appropriately, such as adding water to the tray and spraying water when it is cold at night.

Weather change and watering: the weather forecast is now something I must watch every day, even several times a day, because this forecast will change. Looking at the weather forecast mainly includes several important information: sunny, rainy, cloudy, temperature and wind speed. This information determines whether to water in the next few days. If it rains continuously, the meat left outdoors won't need watering for the last two days. Rainy weather will also slow down the evaporation of water in the indoor succulent flower device, so the watering time can be relatively extended. On the contrary, if it is a continuous sunny day, and the wind speed is not bad (level 3-5) and the temperature is suitable (10 -30), you can water it frequently. However, this still needs to be judged according to the material of the flowerpot and the size of the succulent plant.

Material and watering of flowerpots: The fleshy flowerpots with the best ventilation are more suitable for raising, because there will be no waterlogging and death of plants. Even if it is dry, as long as the fleshy pot is not dead, the state will get better after watering, which is very suitable for novices. However, clay pots also have disadvantages, that is, the water evaporates too quickly, and the bottom of the flowerpot does not retain water, which will slow down the growth of succulents. Because there is not enough water to make the meat grow, the water evaporates before the meat is completely absorbed. Especially in summer, many flower lovers mistakenly think that the red pottery basin is breathable, and the dry environment is good for succulents, so simply not watering it directly leads to the death of succulents.

It's cooler in spring and autumn, but when it's sunny, the water in the pottery basin is completely dry in almost 1-2 days, so it's okay to water it once a day or once every two days. However, flowerpots such as ceramics, ironware and plastics are relatively poor in air permeability, and the watering interval is generally 2-3 times that of pottery pots. The succulents cultivated by these flower devices hardly need much management, and they can go out safely after watering once. Water cut-off in summer is also aimed at these flowerpots with poor air permeability, because a lot of water will be stored at the bottom of the flowerpot after watering.

Succulents also need water to grow, and they will stop growing without water at all.

Succulent plant size and watering: this is generally a point that enthusiasts who have cultivated for many years will summarize. The newly planted succulents have weak water absorption ability because they have few roots, adapt to the new environment and recover from damage, and do not need too much watering. For this succulent plant, a better watering method is: a small amount of frequent watering.

However, succulents that have been growing for many years and are very healthy can be watered once every 2-3 days in the case of continuous sunny days, or even once every day if they are planted in pottery pots. In the open air environment, even if it encounters continuous rainy or rainstorm weather, it will not have any impact, but will grow better. I always water this fleshy meat with a swig.

Pest control of succulent plants

Starscream: Strengthen ventilation, adopt low temperature measures, and spray 40% dicofol EC 1000- 1500 times. Whitefly: 40% omethoate EC 1000-2000 times can be sprayed at the initial stage. Aphids: spray with 80% dichlorvos EC 1500 times. Scale insects: If it is harmful, you can spray 800- 1000 times the killing emulsion in addition to driving it away with a brush.

Common pests

red spider

It mainly harms succulents such as Asclepiadaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Compositae, Liliaceae and cactus. The insect sucks the juice of tender stems and leaves with mouthparts, and the damaged stems and leaves appear yellow-brown spots or fall off, and the spots never fade. After the occurrence of pests, strengthen ventilation and take low temperature measures, and 40% dicofol EC 1000- 1500 times can be sprayed.

Whitefly

Most of them are found in succulents such as Chinese cabbage and Japanese palm of Sedum. This insect sucks juice from the leaf backstab, which causes the leaves to turn yellow and fall off. Colleagues induce soot disease, which directly affects the ornamental value of plants. At the early stage of pest occurrence, 40% omethoate EC 1000-2000 times can be sprayed to kill.

aphid

Most succulents that harm Sedum and Compositae will suck juice from the tender parts of plants, which will lead to the weak growth of plants, and their secretions will also attract ants to invade. At the initial stage of damage, 80% dichlorvos EC was sprayed with 1500 times solution.

scale insect

Long-term damage to plants with close leaves such as agave, melastoma and cactus. Sucking stem and leaf juice will lead to poor growth of plants, and even wither and die in severe cases. In case of danger, except the brush, 800- 1000 times of emulsion can be sprayed.

Whitefly

It is the most annoying pest of cactus, which will not slow down the surface of stem or leaflike stem, make plants yellow, wither, stem nodes fall off, and induce soot disease. It can be sprayed with 800 times of 25% imino sulfuric acid emulsifiable concentrate or 2000 times of 40% quick-killing emulsion.

Soil mixing scheme of succulent plants

Every lover who has just planted succulents always wants to find the most perfect or ideal succulent soil. In fact, there is no perfect soil, only the one that suits him best. As long as it is loose, ventilated, well drained, has a certain aggregate structure and is sterile, it is generally suitable for the growth of succulents. Of course, different varieties of succulents will have slightly different requirements for soil preparation, but the problem will not be too big. The following are the soil collocation schemes selected by many meat lovers, hoping to find the one that suits them and improve it in practice, so as to configure the most suitable soil collocation for succulents. Soil mixing scheme for succulent plants (14 species)

1No. Rouyou succulents with soil:

No matter what kind of planting materials are selected and how to prepare them, they must meet the basic requirements of plants, and we must consider all aspects and grasp them flexibly.

1. is prepared according to the cultivation place: for example, the soil cultivated on the ground and potted is different. When planting on the ground, we should pay more attention to the drainage link and add materials with strong drainage, such as gravel. Potting should be based on the principle of ensuring looseness and ventilation, and properly supplement organic matter. If planted on the terraced fields in Nanyang, it is necessary to consider the characteristics of dryness and sufficient light, and add some substrates with strong water retention, such as vermiculite and coconut bran.

2. Preparation according to different species: Different species may have great differences in soil preparation. For example, epiphytic species need some humus, while some terrestrial species with poor soil and underdeveloped roots have lower requirements for humus. Not only different families and species have different requirements for soil, but also different families and genera have different requirements for soil. Take aloe vera and lying cattle in Liliaceae as examples. The former belongs to the genus Aloe, with strong habits and fast growth, and sufficient base fertilizer can be added to the basin bottom. The latter is a Caryophyllum plant, which grows slowly and basically does not need base fertilizer.

3. According to different planting areas: the climate in the north is dry, which has certain requirements for soil moisture conservation; There is abundant rain and high air humidity in the south, which requires high drainage and ventilation of soil.

4. According to different growth stages, the root system at seedling stage is underdeveloped and the organic matter content is slightly less. The soil is mainly made of light materials, with some fine sand added, and then the organic matter content gradually increases.

5. About succulents media.

No.2 Rouyou succulents with soil:

Soil preparation cannot be explained by a few simple principles. The following formula can be used for reference:

1. 8 parts of plant stone+2 parts of fairy soil+a little shell powder (suitable for cultivating raw stone flowers).

2. Coarse sand 10+ sawdust 2+ base fertilizer 1+ garden soil 1 (suitable for planting).

3. Humus soil 1+ peat 1+ coarse sand 2+ light material 1+ a little base fertilizer (suitable for cultivating epiphytes).

4. 3 parts of pond foundation stone+2 parts of fairy soil +65438+ 0 part of light material +65438+ 0 part of peat (suitable for cultivating 12 hard leaf varieties).

5. 2 parts of garden soil +65438+ 0 part of humus soil+4 parts of coarse sand +65438+ 0 part of light material+half part of chaff ash (suitable for breeding common terrestrial species).

No.3 fleshy oil succulent plant with soil:

Soil-raising materials, perlite, peat, plant ash, 1~2mm cinder particles, ruby, infiltration wetland, fine river sand and vermiculite. The more, the better.

1, first of all, the bottom, the big stone at the bottom, as everyone knows.

2. Block the gap with perlite.

3. Start paving. Remember, every time you pave a layer of particles, you should pave a layer of peat to block the gap.

4, each layer should be super thin, just to cover the next time. Layer by layer, you can't be lazy and thicken a certain layer.

This method is based on media mosaic. Mainly peat and 1~2mm cinder particles should be used more. Cinder particles are the best culture medium for the rooting of raw stone flowers, and peat can provide nutrients in cinder particles. Mosaicism makes the medium coagulate after wet water, and the layers of different media overlap to make the individual's directness not individual, but whole, so it can't be intense. Found that the taproot is quite strong. Capillary root is quite good!

No.4 fleshy oil succulent plant with soil:

For Xin Wei meat, the more reasonable soil mixing method is:

Peat soil 60%+ sand 20%+ particles 20% If river sand cannot be found, particles can be used instead.

The particles can be perlite, volcanic rock, honeycomb coal, ceramsite, stone, etc.

For mature old plants (meat more than 2 years old), the method of mixing soil is similar, but the proportion of sand and particles is increased a little.

The ratio of peat soil+sand+particles 1: 1: 1 is very suitable ~ If you want to make the meat fatter, you need to change a deeper and bigger flowerpot.

No.5 fleshy oil succulent plant with soil:

1. Garden soil and humus. The most common culture medium is a little cheaper, but the disadvantage is that it is too fine and needs to be screened, and there are eggs and bacteria.

2. Perlite, light stone. Used for ventilation, these two are completely interchangeable. The higher the price, the better the effect. Ordinary goods are unnecessary.

3. Shi Lan, planting stones. It is also used for ventilation and water utilization. It is also that the former is more affordable and the latter is more effective.

4. Ceramsite, broken bricks and cinders. Almost all of them are sintered from clay, which is relatively breathable, absorbent and cheap. The disadvantage is that it is hard.

5. Peat and water moss. They are all made of moss or swamp plants, which are absorbent and breathable. Too much is easy to rot, and it is easy to use it in moderation. Can also be used for hair roots, not bad.

The amount of 1 and 4 is less than 235, which can be approached.

No.6 fleshy oil succulent plant with soil:

Sedum mixed with soil, it is considered that peat soil or peat soil can be slightly larger, including humus soil, river sand, perlite, vermiculite and so on. As a matter of attention, in order to promote rooting and vigorous growth, appropriate amount of rice husk charcoal, bone meal, disinfectant alcohol, etc. Is added to the soil; Watering should be decided according to the weather and plant growth. When it is dry, it will get wet. Pay attention to those who grow up well and manage them. In fact, most of those who are not good-looking are hibernating. Of course, it's best to leave them alone.

Mixing soil: after the honeycomb briquette residue is screened, it is added with garden soil+fairy soil+sand+bone powder+shell powder+eggshell+ceramsite+sapphire+activated carbon, and the screened dust is planted. Full-light curing, watering is dry and wet. Add decomposed chicken manure to the bottom of the basin. The basin should be small and the soil should be small and loose. After the soil is dry for a few days, water it and get more sunshine. There is little water in midsummer, Sedum sativum is fleshy, and it is mostly dormant or semi-dormant in summer.

Hu Jin is a strong thorn ball. Ordinary flower mud+coal ball ash+bone meal can be used. Just water it once a month.

Ball games: common flower mud+coal ball ash (granulated after sieving)+vermiculite+appropriate amount of bone powder.

Meat with thick roots (such as jade fan): blue stone+fairy soil+appropriate bone meal.

The remaining meat: common flower mud+humus+snake wood+vermiculite+appropriate bone meal.

No.7 Rouyou succulents with soil:

Sedum 30% peat, 30% pumice (that is, light stone, including yellow sand loam) +30% broken brick (miscellaneous brick, taking particles with a diameter of 1.4 mm)+fertilizer. Hi, water.

There is no peat in the stone map, just a little fertilizer is needed. For pumice, sand and broken bricks, pay attention to the lack of water, but like bright light and air circulation.

Personally, I think volcanic rocks and cinders can replace broken bricks, but that's just my feeling.

No.8 fleshy oil succulent plant with soil:

I used self-made sowing materials, and I felt ok. Let them communicate with you.

Plant materials consist of six different media:

1, cinder; 2. Orlando (a volcanic rock); 3, smooth stone; 4. Medical stone; 5, chaff charcoal (sieving particles); 6. Danish pinstone peat soil (1-3mm). Look at the process of super tender and fleshy sowing.

No.9 Rouyou succulents with soil:

The cheapest is cinder peat perlite.

A large amount of cinder+a small amount of peat

Coal cinder, sand, humus and coal cinder account for a large proportion.

2 peat +7 cinder+1 rice husk charcoal+a small amount of bone meal

10 # Carnivorous plants with soil:

Peat: perlite: glauconite = 1: 1: 1, and a small amount of charcoal particles, plant ash, bone meal and slow release fertilizer are added.

The formula of pavement mixing soil is as follows, with a particle size of 3~6mm:

Iridescent stone: ruby soil: deer algae soil: columnar peat soil =1:1:1:1.

This pavement is beautiful and breathable. I recommend it to you.

1 1 No.

3mm sapphire+peat 2: 1 raise any succulents.

12 # Rouyou succulents with soil:

Soil: keep moisture, breathe, find a balance point, don't accumulate water, breathe. My usual formula (Jinan), peat, perlite, vermiculite, light stone1:1:1,the ratio is not strict. If you can't find these things, you can use Cui Yun Meitu to mix small sapphire or phytolith or other granular things. American soil is a composite medium, but it is a little too dangerous for meaty, so mix some particles to balance it. Be careful when buying two packs of that kind of nutrient soil, because the quality of that thing is not guaranteed.

Thirteen meat friends succulent plants with soil:

Coal cinder is a common ingredient, but almost all the slag contains sulfur, and succulents are not allergic to sulfur, which has the function of sterilization and insect prevention. From the comparison of planting for many years, the plants with cinder have stronger stress resistance than those without cinder, and are not easy to produce root rot and root scale disease. The coal cinder used is granular raw coal cinder after full combustion (it doesn't matter whether it contains unburned coal or not), followed by honeycomb cinder. There is a lot of soil in the honeycomb residue, so it should be crushed and sieved if it is used. Coal cinder should be watered before use to remove fly ash and alkalinity. About cinder, we can also see the advantages and disadvantages of planting succulents with cinder, and the whole process of planting flowers with cinder.

Using eggshells, eggshell ratio 1/4, the effect is very good. Eggshell is a good breathable and water-saving plant material, which is very useful for increasing soil permeability and of course increasing calcium content. The eggshell should be crushed into 2-3mm.

General garden soil accounts for about 1/4, and sand accounts for about 1/3. However, both garden soil and sand contain fine dust, as well as bricks, vermiculite, perlite, sapphire and slag, which must be screened and washed repeatedly before use.

The components of plant materials are not necessarily those listed by experts, nor do they necessarily need a single component, but the more components, the more miscellaneous the better. If you have all the bricks, vermiculite, perlite, bluestone and slag, you can use them, and the total amount should be controlled at around 1/3. For example, eggshells, mussels, bone meal, old lime, carbonized rice husk and other calcium-containing things are also available, and some are used for various purposes, and the total amount should be controlled at about 10-20%. Different plants have different physiological functions and different nutrients, so it is definitely better to use some miscellaneous ingredients than a single ingredient.

No matter what kind of ingredients are used, they should be exposed to the sun for a few days before use.

Add more soilless fillers to the bottom of the flowerpot as drainage layer, and you can arrange the size of water particles to put several layers, with the largest one on the bottom layer. After the drainage is put away, put coarse materials first, then fine materials. After putting the plants in, lift the plants up slightly and add soil to stretch the roots. Don't add too much soil at a time. Tamp the soil evenly along the edge of the basin. Finally, gently mound the basin several times to level the soil.

14 meat oil succulent plants with soil:

The proportion of mixed soil is: peat soil 10%-20%+ sand 20%+ particles 60%-80%.

The proportion is not too strict, in short, it is to increase the share of particles in the soil, but I do not recommend using particles completely.

I always feel a little corny and nutritious, which will be better for meat, just my personal opinion.

Possible problems caused by large particles in succulent soil;

The granular medium is too large to retain water, and the peat is too small to sink to the bottom of the basin, which leads to polarization in the basin. The upper particles don't retain water, so the roots are difficult to come out, but they can't attach, and the watering times are few, which leads to the roots repeating and unable to absorb nutrients. Plants have been consuming nutrients, and leaves are withered one by one.

With the increase of particles, the water loss is faster, and the absorption capacity of meat decreases, which will consume its own leaves to supply nutrition. So at this time, the leaves at the bottom will slowly dry up and fall off, and after a long time, they will grow into small stumps, and because the leaves at the bottom keep falling off, the shape is getting closer and closer to coconut trees. Mm-hmm ~ that's it ~

At this time, there are two solutions, 1 is to adjust the culture medium, and 2 is to water more.

Introduction to growing meat (personal experience only)

① Move the basin: remember not to water it immediately.

After a long journey, the meat is thirsty and tired. Please remove the pot as soon as possible. Remember to dry plant in wet soil, that is, plant in wet soil, but don't water it. (Use three sets of mini gardening tools when planting ~ Their wooden handles are very suitable for digging holes and blocking roots, so you must be good at using them ~) Give the meat time to adapt to the new environment. After 4-5 days, the meat has adapted to the new environment, began to grow new roots, the soil began to dry, and then poured thoroughly again. Please rest assured that the meat will not dry to death. One is that its thick leaves store a lot of water, and the other is that the soil itself is moist enough to meet its short-term needs.

After a few days of moving pots and changing soil, the bottom leaves dried up. Especially the varieties with thin leaves are most obvious. This means that meat is consuming its own nutrition to adapt to the new environment and take root. Don't be afraid. This is an inevitable normal phenomenon. At this time, do not pick the dying leaves, please wait for them to fall off naturally. If the leaves that are not completely dried are removed, the meat itself will consume the nutrition of another leaf and continue to dry and wrinkle.

② Timing of watering: the cause of death of most meat.

How does a novice meat grower master the timing of watering? There are two ways:

① Insert a wooden toothpick at the edge of the flowerpot and pull it out when you want to water it. See if the toothpick touches the soil, which means the soil is already very dry. You can water it at this time. Touching the soil means that the soil is still wet and does not need watering. Weighing the flowerpot by hand feels much lighter than before and needs watering.

PS: During the growing season (mainly in spring and autumn), it is forbidden to water the meat when there is no sunshine, which is the most important factor to make the meat soar, grow white and even hydrate!

The watering time can't be completely according to dogma, because it has a lot to do with regional climate and room temperature humidity. After a long time, you will have experience.

(3) Meat and season: how to maintain it all year round.

Fertilize every 15 days in spring (March-May).

During the year, most succulents begin to enter the growth period. As the temperature rises slowly, the roots of plants begin to grow actively. At this time, the water in the flowerpot will dry quickly and needs watering. At this time, you can move out of the room and take photos in the outdoor environment with wind and sunshine. However, in spring, the temperature difference between day and night is very large. If you are not careful, you may be burned by too strong sun. I still have to take it back indoors at night.

Summer (June to August)

Summer is a tough day for succulents. In the meantime, due to the high humidity, we can only live by the moisture in the air. There is no direct water supply. The smaller succulents themselves don't save much water, so it is difficult to survive for three months in summer. If you see the leaves thinning and showing signs of withering, you'd better water them on a cool night. Keep it indoors and remember to ventilate. Never put it in a closed room. You can turn on the air conditioner, but please don't put it in the air outlet, it will bring pressure to the plants.

Fertilize once every 15 days in autumn (September ~ 165438+ 10).

This is the best time to rejuvenate succulents after a hot summer. As the weather gets cold, people with fleshy red leaves begin to turn red. Those varieties that strictly control the amount of water in summer begin to become full and energetic because of watering in autumn, which is a good opportunity to grow again. Those succulents that avoid exposure to the sun in the shade can move out to bask in the sun. Weak light can't change the color of leaves.

Winter (12 ~ February)

In fact, succulents can simply spend the winter. As the temperature drops, it is necessary to reduce watering to prevent the meat from freezing. Control water like summer, especially for varieties that are not cold-tolerant. Please don't water them at all. Varieties that are not hardy will lose their leaves and stop growing completely. When you see this situation, you must not water it. You must wait patiently until spring begins to sprout. It needs to be kept indoors in winter, and it can be moved to the window during the day to let him get the light. But even indoors, the place near the window will be as cold as outside, so remember to put it in your room at night.

⑤ Tips and some reminders

1: How to prevent the leaves in Yulu from drying up?

First of all, high curative value is fond of yin, so we should avoid sun exposure and scattered light. Don't water the leaves blindly when they lose luster and dry, which will easily lead to rotten roots. Just spray it on the leaves to keep the humidity of the leaves and increase the brightness and saturation of the leaves. When the air humidity is low, plastic bottles can be placed on the basin to form a small greenhouse effect, which can increase the air humidity in a small range. These two methods can definitely avoid the phenomenon of dry leaves in Yulu!

2. Dianthus plants, such as carnation flowers/meat cones, peel their skin once a year. When peeling, the leaves outside will kill and a new baby will be born inside. Please remember to cut off the water when peeling! ! Once you water it at the wrong time, it will hydrate and die! Water deprivation will accelerate its peeling.

3. What about rotten roots?

Rotten roots are not terrible, but can be saved as long as they are found in time. The first step is to remove the hydrated leaves and thoroughly remove the rotten roots, leaving nothing behind. Then dry the incision, usually for 2-3 days. Finally, insert new roots into the nutrient soil. The drier the soil, the faster it takes root.

4. Spend the summer

The succulents that are not planted in summer will basically stop growing when the temperature is above 32 degrees, so the problem of summer is coming!

1: Please keep it ventilated! Otherwise, meat is equivalent to steaming sauna.

Please be sure to save water and water it in the evening or early morning, that is, when the sun is not there.
