Succulents with 1 rubber band and 1 vegetable basket: roots grow like crazy with 100% survival
Autumn is here, and Huahua just wants to ask one thing: are your succulents doing okay? But no matter what, the hot weather is finally over. For those leaves you pulled off, or the succulents you beheaded, it is naturally time for them to grow roots! Hurry up and see how to make succulents grow roots fast!
Wrap a rubber band around it - water propagation makes roots grow!
If the beheaded succulents at home are slow to grow roots when stuck in soil, you can try Huahua's method. All you need is 1 rubber band, and the succulents will grow roots quickly!
1. Prepare a disposable paper cup, fill it with about 1/2 clean water, then find a piece of plastic wrap, stretch the plastic wrap over the mouth of the cup, and use 1 rubber band to secure the plastic wrap directly.
2. Use a small knife to cut a slit in the plastic wrap. Remember not to cut it too large. Just make sure the roots of the succulent can reach down through it, but the whole succulent cannot fall into the cup.
3. Place the succulent at the mouth of the cup, making sure the lower part of the succulent's roots does not touch the water surface, then put the disposable paper cup in a cool, ventilated place, and be careful not to expose it to direct sunlight.
4. It takes only about 10 days for the succulent to sprout quite a few roots. At this point, transplant the rooted succulent into a flowerpot and care for it slowly.
1 vegetable washing basket - vermiculite rooting method!
Every time you go to great lengths for leaf propagation, but it just will not grow roots, what should you do? Why not try propagating in a vegetable basket! The rooting rate is 99%!
1. Find an unused vegetable basket at home and wash it clean. It is best to use one with small holes to prevent soil from leaking out badly, then prepare peat soil, coconut coir, and vermiculite.
2. Mix the peat soil and coconut coir into a loose, breathable soil, fill the vegetable basket to eight-tenths full, then spread a thick layer of vermiculite on the top layer.
3. Let the wounds of the succulent leaves to be propagated dry, place them flat on the vermiculite, then put the vegetable basket in a shallow dish filled with water. Usually, when you see the water level in the dish drop, add water. Do not water directly on the surface of the pot.

4. Place the vegetable basket and shallow dish together in a place with good scattered light. The water in the shallow dish evaporates into water vapor, which keeps the propagation soil sufficiently moist at all times. Moreover, the vegetable basket has gaps, so there is no fear of black rot at all. Basically, it only takes 10-15 days to grow roots!

Huahua will teach everyone another method, which is to use a plastic bottle from home to grow roots. Its rooting rate is comparable to that of the vegetable basket!
1. First prepare the needed materials: 1 plastic bottle, peat soil, ceramsite, and river sand.
2. Spread a layer of ceramsite on the bottom of the container, about 2 cm thick is enough, then take a plastic bottle and cut off the bottom, and insert it vertically into the container.
3. Spread peat soil on top of the ceramsite, finally sprinkle a layer of river sand on the surface of the pot, and place the succulent leaves to be propagated flat on the river sand.
4. Pour water into the plastic bottle. This not only keeps the soil slightly moist, but also avoids watering directly on the pot surface, which could cause the succulents to rot and turn to water.
