Summer meat

In late May, the highest temperature in many areas was above 30 degrees, and the situation of meat people was full of problems. The "war" of meat for summer had begun

Why are you afraid of summer

In summer, the temperature is high, and some meat enters the dormancy period and stops growing. Before, the normal sun and watering can't bear it. Coupled with the high temperature, it will die if you don't pay attention

What does fleshy dormancy look like

Generally, the temperature is above 26 degrees for five consecutive days, and the meat basically enters the dormancy period. The normal performance is that the leaves are closed, the old leaves are dry, and some are still watering, there will be rotten roots, black rot and water

All the meat is dormant

Not all fleshy species are dormant. According to the growth law, they are divided into spring and autumn species, summer species and winter species. Except that summer species still grow in summer, spring and autumn and winter species are almost dormant in summer

Spring and autumn and winter type species

Spring and autumn type species: growing in spring and autumn and dormant in summer

Winter type species: growing in winter and dormant in summer

Common are: Guanyin lotus, QianChuan, Buddha beads, Yi nvxin, mountain rose, black and green mage, Fu Niang, airan brocade, blue and white stone lotus, etc

The performance of fleshy dormancy is different. The leaves of mountain rose, egg rose and teyulian are directly closed. This signal is even a little beautiful

Others are more miserable. If you don't know that your internal growth stops, you can either dry or water it. I'll die right away

If you want to have more meat and spend the summer safely, take a look at the following tips:

1. Avoid direct sunlight

Most people know this, but shade doesn't mean complete darkness. Without light, meat is easy to deform and grow in vain. It's best to use sunscreen to shade it

It looks like this from the inside, revealing a little position below

Or move indoors where there is astigmatism

2. Ventilation and cooling

In summer, no matter how cool the place is, it's hot and stuffy if it's not ventilated. The meat can't last for three days. The root will rot all at once. It's water and black rot. there's no cure

Be sure to ventilate, ventilate and ventilate. If you really can't find a ventilated place, you can put more meat high, and the air mobility is better

Usually open more windows and doors for ventilation. With a small action, meat can live one more day

3. The basin is paved with volcanic stones

Volcanic rocks are relatively light and have many small pores, which can well dissipate moisture and heat

During the dormancy period, all life activities are weakened. The ventilation of basin soil can ensure the weak respiration of roots. It is not suitable to change the basin for the well planted meat. A layer of volcanic stone can be added on the soil surface

4. Strictly control watering

In summer, "even people are easy to be thirsty, and meat is certainly more thirsty". Many flower friends can't get around this misunderstanding and water the basin as soon as they see it dry

At this time, more meat can't drink water at all. The water accumulates in the basin soil and rots in less than 2 days

It's best to control the water step by step. Pour it once in 5-7 days at about 26 degrees, once in 7-10 days at 30 degrees, and stop watering above 35 degrees. Don't look at the dried meat, as long as it still has color

Pay attention to watering when the temperature is relatively low in the morning and evening. If watering at night, touch the flowerpot first and then water it when it doesn't feel hot

Some flower friends feel meaty, thirsty and hot. Put some ice in the basin to cool their thirst. Huahua just wants to say "art experts are brave"! This method hasn't been tried yet

5. Clean up dead leaves in time

For diseased and dead leaves, gently clip them off with tweezers to avoid decay, breeding bacteria and causing infectious diseases

6. Stop fertilizing and feeding

Once you enter the dormancy period, don't think about fertilizing and growing meat. Save your life first~

Summer type species

Summer type species: do not sleep in summer, some even grow faster

Common varieties are:

Other common varieties, such as green star beauty, peach beauty and Thousand Buddha hand, have no obvious dormancy period in summer, so they are not sure how they grow in summer~

Summer is a fleshy growth period of summer type seeds. You should give sufficient light, water and fertilizer to grow up, otherwise you will have to wait a long time if you miss this season

1. Full illumination

If the light of summer type seed is not enough, it will grow in vain immediately and can't be saved. It looks ugly and doesn't want it

The temperature is the highest from June to August in summer. Except for the hottest period from noon to afternoon (11:00-14:00), these meat can be directly exposed to the sun. The more they are exposed to the sun, the more beautiful the color is and the thicker the leaves are

Pay attention to shade in the hottest time at noon to avoid burns; Or move to the indoor astigmatism. Don't take it directly to the cool room. The meat can't stand the sudden cooling

2. Proper watering

Summer type is generally the most drought tolerant and succulent, but the water demand increases in the growing season. Water it once every 3-5 days and when the pot soil temperature is low in the morning and evening

Don't use too cold water for watering, because the flowerpot and soil are the same as the ambient temperature. Suddenly watering cold water will stimulate the roots. It's best to use a watering can, which can not only improve the air humidity, but also reduce the temperature by a small margin

Note that the cactus cannot be watered from the top, which will cause collapse

3. Avoid rain

Summer type plants are fleshy and afraid of rain. If you keep them on the balcony or yard all the time, pay attention not to get wet in rainy days in summer, which will be irritating and waterlogging

4. Cooling above 38 degrees

Now global warming is approaching 40 degrees in July and August, and people can't resist it, let alone meat

So when it's above 38 degrees, move these meaty into a brighter place indoors

5. Apply thin fertilizer

For summer meat in the growth period, it is best to add fertilizer every half a month to ensure nutrition. In addition to purchasing professional liquid fertilizer and compound fertilizer

The residue of mustard seeds, sesame seeds and soybeans can also be used as fertilizer after air drying. After crushing, sprinkle 2-3 grams into the basin every 10 days or so

Summary

There are many kinds of meat, and our flower friends are all over the country. The situation of each family is different. We should observe in time and deal with specific problems

Another wave of high temperature is about to begin

There are fleshy flower friends at home
