Avoid these 6 mistakes when growing succulents, or you will regret it too late

Among all flowers and plants, lovely succulents have perhaps the most literary names. Just imagine feeling the autumn breeze and sitting by the windowsill watching the succulents' graceful forms - so relaxing... Alright, enough rambling, let's get back on topic. Today Little Fox will talk about succulent care, and among these there are 6 "mistakes" that you absolutely must not make, or you will regret it too late.

Mistake 1"mistake": Watering under strong midday sun

Summer has passed and autumn has arrived. Everyone says autumn should have cool breezes, but the weather is still so muggy. Especially at noon, when the sun is at its fiercest. No matter what plant it is, even if it gets scorched dry at noon, you must not water it.

You must stick to watering in the evening and the morning. Think about it: if someone has heatstroke and you suddenly pour cold water on them, their body will definitely have problems, right? So succulents must not be watered when the sun is strong.

Mistake 2"mistake":Watering thoroughly immediately after repotting

For succulents, right after repotting, the roots are very easily damaged, and they also need a period to adapt to the new pot. You can use carbendazim to help them recover, but you must not water thoroughly immediately, otherwise it will be another big blow to the succulent's roots.

Mistake 3"mistake": Water accumulating in the leaf center

When watering succulents, try not to let water drip onto the leaves. If it accidentally drips on them, the leaves will collect water, and it is very likely to flow into the crevices. Over time, bacteria will infect the plant, and the survival rate of the whole succulent will drop.

Mistake 4"mistake": Improper fertilizing

For succulents, acidic soil is not very suitable, and they will grow relatively slowly. Some flower lovers get anxious and think about applying chemical fertilizer. Chemical fertilizer can be applied, but in this kind of high-temperature weather, applying chemical fertilizer easily burns the roots. To avoid root burn, flower lovers can use a general-purpose plant nutrient solution; usually 2 drops diluted in 1000 times water is enough to spray.

Mistake 5"mistake": Water often accumulating at the bottom of the pot

During succulent care, the biggest taboo is water accumulating at the bottom of the pot. When watering, do not pour too much at once; watering appropriately is enough. Just like us humans, drinking too much water also makes us uncomfortable, right? Succulents have it worse - water accumulation directly causes root rot.

Mistake 6"mistake": Watering when there is disease.

When succulents show signs of disease, if you water them, it will instead increase bacterial growth, and pests will become more and more numerous. So when a succulent has disease, first take measures to control it, and only after it is under control should you water.

Alright, that's all Little Fox has to share with flower lovers today! The above are the 6 "mistakes" in succulent care, so pay special attention to them. After reading the article, have you gained anything, flower lovers?
