Care Tips for Succulent Plant
Light: Succulents love light and need about six hours of sun per day,depending on the type of succulent.Though most varieties of succulents will not survive with full shade,they also don’t need to be blasted with hot rays all day,so a sheer curtain can help ensure they get some shade too.Newly planted succulents, in particular,can scorch in direct sunlight, so you may need to gradually introduce them to full sun exposure while providing shade and low light with a sheer curtain.
Water: Just like humans,succulents need more energy when they’re in a period of growth.During the spring and summer,the plants are thriving and drinking up much more water than when they’re resting in the fall and winter.Caro and Rose recommend testing the soil with a finger—when
the top 1.25 inches are dry,grab your watering can.Over-watering can kill your succulent,so make sure you let the soil dry between waterings.
Fertilizer: Succulents don’t need much fertilizer,but you can give them light feedings during the spring and summer growing season.Be careful not to overfertilize—this can cause your succulent to grow too quickly and become weak.As a general rule of thumb,check the recommended amount on your fertilizer’s packaging,and use half that amount for succulents.
Drainage: Succulents don’t like to sit in waterlogged soil,so drainage is important to prevent rot.Your container should have a drainage hole to allow excess water to escape.Terra-cotta pots are ideal for beginners,but as you grow more comfortable with plant care,you could consider upgrading to terrariums or other containers.
