After autumn, it's the perfect time for succulents to go from ugly to beautiful - don't miss these three tricks

Autumn temperatures gradually cool down, and the temperature at this time is most suitable for succulent growth. Since succulents grow leggy and green in summer, autumn is the time for them to become beautiful. Therefore, after autumn you must seize this favorable opportunity to let your succulents truly become beautiful. Today, the editor will teach you three tricks to make your succulents go from ugly to beautiful.

1. After autumn, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and this is exactly the favorable condition for succulents to change color. At this time, you need to create a growing environment with a large temperature difference for your succulents, giving them plenty of light during the day. If conditions allow, you can place the succulents on a south-facing balcony or keep them outdoors. During the day, let the succulents get plenty of sun (except for the particularly shade-tolerant ones), and at night let them receive the nourishment of rain and dew. If on a balcony, you can open the window at night to create a larger temperature difference. This way, it won't take long before your succulents become more and more beautiful.

2. Control watering. Autumn is the peak season for rapid succulent growth. Watering too much at this time can easily cause succulents to grow leggy, affecting their appearance, and also making it harder for them to change color. Therefore, controlling watering is the main reason for making succulents beautiful. Succulents themselves have a very high water content, so as long as you don't let them dry out completely and dehydrate, it's fine. Watering less can control their growth rate, prevent leggy growth, and increase pigmentation. So, watering succulents in autumn should lean toward dry conditions.

3. Ventilated environment. Ventilation is needed not only for succulents but for the growth of any plant. If succulents are placed in a stuffy, non-breathable environment, their color will be very hard to change, and they will even keep their previous green. Ventilation can accelerate the color change of succulents and also reduce the occurrence of diseases. If you want succulents to have deep, vivid colors and be beautiful and striking, you need a large temperature difference + plenty of sunlight + water control + ventilation + low temperature (low temperature must have a limit, and cannot fall below what the succulents can tolerate). As long as you do these things, your succulents can be grown into a perfect state.
