Add these 2 things to your succulent pots and they will grow plump and strong

Many people love growing succulents; they hardly need any watering, and they grow in such a cute, adorable way. I love them too. But if a succulent becomes leggy, or grows thin and spindly, its looks drop off a lot. So how can you make your succulents grow plumper? Today I will introduce two great methods!

1. Add some peanut shells to your succulent pots

Everyone knows that succulents fear too much water; when there is too much water they grow leggy, and in serious cases their roots rot. Fertilizing succulents is also rather troublesome and easily causes fertilizer burn. In fact, using a few peanut shells can perfectly solve this problem.

First, peanut shells help with air and water permeability. When planting succulents, crush the peanut shells and mix them into the soil, then plant the succulents; this gives excellent drainage and airflow. In addition, you can also mix the peanut shells with soil and compost them for two to three months; the peanut shells will then quickly rot and turn into nutrient-rich soil, providing nutrients for the succulents. Peanut shells have mild fertilizing power, but that is enough to support succulent growth and will not burn the roots.

2. Add some bone meal to your succulent pots

Take the bones left over from meals, wash them clean, remove the oil and salt, then put them under the sun to dry thoroughly, smash them with a hammer, and if conditions allow, grind them into bone meal. Then give the succulents bone meal once every two months, and they will grow plump and beautiful.
