After repotting succulents, pay attention to this small detail - their breathing depends on it

1 "small detail" after repotting succulents - succulents rely entirely on "it" to "breathe", so pay attention!

The hot summer has passed, and finally the crisp autumn has arrived. For both people and plants, this is a relatively good season. Many succulent growers always run into endless problems when caring for succulents in summer. Succulent growers who have been holding back all summer have many plans waiting to be carried out, and of course the editor is no exception!

Autumn has arrived, for example, repotting succulents, changing soil, sowing, leaf propagation, watering, and so on, plus all kinds of buying, buying, buying. Having brought the succulents through several summers, but just as autumn begins, if you are not careful, the casualty rate may suddenly increase!

The weather is gradually getting cooler, and it is time to put all the succulent care tasks on the agenda. So when caring for succulents in summer and repotting succulents, you must also pay attention to the details.

This year's battle of getting through summer has basically come to an end. In this cool autumn, all aspects of succulent care can be put on the agenda, but today let's first talk about repotting. This issue is a matter of detail, and surely many succulent growers want to know about it too!

This issue is whether, when repotting succulents, we should press the soil around the plant firmly. When the editor first started, I also thought the soil around the plant needed to be pressed down hard, but actually that is not the case!

We need to know that succulents also need to breathe smoothly. If the soil is pressed too firmly, it will cause the succulents to be unable to breathe, so generally speaking, we only need to press lightly.

If when we have just repotted succulents, the nutrient soil is relatively light and loose, the succulent plants are prone to toppling over. So before repotting succulents, we can first spray the soil moist and then repot. At the same time, we can also add a little top dressing stone around the plant to stabilize it and keep it from toppling over!
