Most people who grow succulents don't dare to water them or fertilize them, so the succulents stay in their original state. They grow slowly or don't grow at all. Grown this way, it's very hard for them to fill the pot. Waiting for them to fill the pot, waiting for them to show their colors, who knows when that will be.

The soil mix for succulents must be loose and breathable. You can use peat soil, perlite, and vermiculite in a 3:1:1 ratio. This mix is both loose and breathable and contains nutrients. After watering, excess water drains straight out and doesn't pool, while the soil can still retain a certain amount of moisture for them to absorb, making it a very good choice. If you don't know how to water, you can stick a toothpick into the soil. Whenever you want to water, pull out the toothpick and take a look. If the toothpick has no moisture, we can water thoroughly directly. During the growing season, regularly give them high-nitrogen, high-potassium fertilizer two to three times a month. Be sure to give them plenty of light. Succulents will grow very fast.

Summer is the season when succulents are most prone to rot. If your soil isn't loose and breathable enough, root rot and black rot are easy to get. Keep the soil slightly moist. Get as little water on the leaves as possible. Keep the air circulating, and it's easy to get through summer safely. There's one more thing: stop fertilizing in summer. Because of the high temperatures, they don't grow, and fertilizing will only burn their roots. Wait until the growing season and give them a plentiful supply of fertilizer and water, but the most important thing.

When winter comes, the temperature starts to drop and the temperature difference starts to get bigger. We must give them plenty of light. At this time, water less, keep the soil in a slightly dry state, and when the leaves start to soften slightly, give them a little water. The succulents you grow will definitely be able to develop very good colors.
