For beginners growing succulents, do you know all these 8 terms?

Actually, Momo is just like many flower lovers. When first growing succulents, they basically only knew the 2 words "succulent," and then happily bought succulents to grow, couldn't tell the varieties apart, only knew how to water, and didn't know anything else. There is quite a lot to know about growing succulents, so don't just treat them as lazy-person plants. Among these 8 terms, how many do you "know"?

First, fasciation

Hearing this word, many beginner flower lovers may find it a bit unfamiliar. Simply put, it is a phenomenon of malformation or deformation, generally referring to succulent meristem doubling, or the formation of more growth points. These growth points connect horizontally into a line, eventually growing into a flat fan shape or cockscomb, etc. Don't think that just because a succulent has abnormal growth, it should be thrown away. Instead, this forms a relatively unique appearance and has even greater ornamental value.

Second, clustering

Clustering succulents are the best state for succulents, which means growing a succulent from a single plant into a multi-plant form. As there are more and more side shoots, it becomes a multi-headed succulent. And if such a succulent is grown a bit fatter, it will be the full-pot state you want.

Third, establishing in the pot

No matter where a succulent is bought from, it should be properly acclimated for about a week so it can adapt to the new environment. Mainly look at the leaves: whether they become soft or wilted, you can tell the succulent's condition of establishing in the pot. If the succulent is plump and energetic, it has basically adapted to the new environment, and slowly more small side shoots can grow, which shows the succulent has established in the pot. Remember, don't always pull it out of the soil to check the roots, because one careless move and it will die.

Fourth, variegation

Variegation means a change in color. Many flower lovers may not understand it. The colors produced this way are red, white, yellow, and other colors that can only be encountered by chance, not sought. If you come across such a variegated succulent while growing succulents, it proves you are truly fated with succulents, a once-in-ten-years encounter.
