You Wait for Me at the Finish Line

Good morning, the early hours of 5.10

Hello, my name is Ami; Gemini man; ??????

I officially fell into the pit on Valentine's Day of a certain year, and once I fell, the deeper I sank.

From a succulent newbie to being able to keep them alive. Thanks to this group of Hainan succulent friends who are "crazy and deeply poisoned with no way to pull themselves out." Whenever I run into a problem, they always give me careful and accurate answers! Thanks again to all of you!~

It is my luck to have gotten to know you, and I hope my luck will not run out this quickly~

Hello it"s me

The succulent rooftop I once dreamed of having (internet image)

Now, I have it!!

In Hainan, the hot and humid summer environment is simply hell for succulents.

On the 26th-floor rooftop, pure open-air growing in winter with strong wind and temperature differences, this kind of environment is close to perfect for Hainan. But this kind of environment with no way to shade from sun or rain is simply hell once summer comes. So in summer, I can only move the varieties that will have problems after being rained on and exposed to the sun, such as: Aeonium, Echeveria agavoides series, and Echeveria elegans series, to under the flower rack that is less than 10 sq m and to the balcony at home.

If you want your succulents to get through summer safely, the soil mix is key. After repeated practice, I have summarized the following soil mix ratio:

Maifan stone 60%

Akadama 20%

Volcanic rock 10% (can be replaced with something else)

River sand + peat 10%

Personally, I think the most important things are maifan stone, akadama, and river sand. Whether you use coarse sand or fine sand does not matter too much; the main thing is to have a fine medium, so the plants can grip the roots more easily.

The above are some experiences I have summarized personally. Every succulent grower's environment is very different. However, ventilation and light are essential. Ventilation is like fish being unable to live without water, and light is like birds being unable to live without the sky. I hope everyone can find a method that suits them.

Next~ please enjoy the succulents...~
