Keeping succulents in flower pots is outdated - Grandpa's succulents have all grown into old stems

I wonder what everyone's impression of succulents is? In Huahua's mind, succulents are the kind that are small, with thick leaves, and look adorable when the leaves turn red. If there were a little girl nearby holding the succulent with both hands or observing it, it would fit this scene even more.

Indeed, the succulents in our impression are all this kind of small plant, placed quietly on a desk or office table as a small potted plant. Because of its small size, its ability to resist radiation and purify air is very limited, but many people still like it, care for it, and even keep only this one kind of plant.

Who says these small succulents can only be appreciated as small potted plants? Well, earlier I saw Grandpa plant the succulents someone gave him in the yard soil. At first, Huahua even laughed at Grandpa for not knowing how to grow succulents, saying who would put succulents in the yard to grow them? How ugly!

Huahua has forgotten how many years ago this was. A few days ago, when visiting Grandpa, I saw that those succulents at Grandpa's house had grown so big! Huahua really didn't expect that one day I could see succulents leave their relatively small and cute pots and grow so wildly and freely. It really surprised Huahua!

I asked Grandpa how exactly succulents like this were grown. Grandpa smiled and said nothing. After a while he said, actually, I didn't grow them at all! They grew like this by themselves. This time Huahua was truly dumbfounded. You know, when we usually grow succulents, we are careful, careful, and even more careful.

We know succulents are afraid of waterlogging, so when watering, we worry about giving too much and making the succulent die. I never expected that leaving them alone could make them grow so well? Huahua told Grandpa I didn't believe it, and only after Grandpa's explanation did I understand. Grandpa said, actually, not all plants grow better the more carefully you care for them. Life is the same. Have you noticed that every time you try your hardest, things do not necessarily succeed? The same principle applies to growing flowers. No matter how carefully you maintain them, no matter how well you watch over them, waterlogging or pests and diseases are still unavoidable.

At times like this, don't you feel especially sad? Then next time you grow them, why not try letting the plants go completely and see what happens? Look at these succulents. They are originally plants with relatively strong survival ability. Just throw them in the ground, anywhere, without worrying about the soil or watering, and see what they can actually grow into. All plants have strength beyond what you can imagine.

After listening to Grandpa's words, Huahua really benefited a great deal. Sure enough, old ginger is spicier. He not only explained the principle of growing flowers, but also explained the great principle of life!

If you also think Grandpa's words make a lot of sense, you can also try letting your plants go and raising them freely!
