JAKARTA - The key to the success of planting succulents lies in a good and correct watering method. Bad watering habits play a role in 90 percent of the chance of succulent deaths.
Therefore, it is important to know the intensity and how to water succulents that are good and correct so as not to cause death in plants. Launching Muste of Home, Monday, January 9, general guidelines in watering succulents need to be considered from the texture of the soil. If the planting media is considered dry, then you need to water it. Although scheduling does not need to be done, the important thing to remember is routinely checking the soil every two weeks.
The important thing to keep in mind is that succulents prefer the "sand and dry" method. This means that the soil must be watered thoroughly, then allowed to dry out completely before watering again. Check your succulent soil by touching the top layer of the ground. The nutrients that need to be watered will feel completely dry.
Another way to find out if your succulents need water is by looking at the leaves or stems. This plant naturally stores water in the leaves which makes it look meaty and thick. If the leaves look dry and dull, that means the water supply in the plants is running out and needs to be refilled.
For watering methods, don't water it with a spray bottle. Because this method causes watering to be less than optimal. It would be better if it disbursed succulents under the tap or watered them using a hose so that the water that hit them was evenly wet. Do not water all the leaves. Because, this plant does not drink water through the leaves so there is no need to water it.
The drop of water on the leaves acts as a broadening glass and strong sunlight can burn it. Moreover, succulent plants have a pharyna, which is a powdery white substance that functions like sunscreen. Watering succulent leaves with water can remove farina.
The best practice to water is to pour water directly near the base of the plant, and throughout the soil. This is important to encourage plants to propagate their roots as well as form a strong root system.
