How to get succulents to grow multiple heads

I.Beheading method

Beheading is the most widely used and most popular method for getting succulents to grow multiple heads. The beheading method is relatively simple: just cut off the top of the succulent, and the plant itself will then sprout multiple new growth points, thereby achieving the goal of getting the succulent to grow multiple heads.

II.Pinching method

Because the beheading method affects the external ornamental value of succulents in a short period of time, some thoughtful gardening enthusiasts came up with the pinching method, which achieves the goal of sprouting multiple heads by removing the top tip of the succulent.

III.Leaf-pulling method

Compared with the beheading method and the pinching method, the leaf-pulling method is very simple: during the succulent's growing season (generally spring and autumn), when the succulent is at its most robust, pull off the succulent's leaves at a suitable position, then place the succulent in a shaded, well-ventilated spot to help the wound heal, in the hope that the succulent will sprout multiple heads.
