1、 How often

Although succulent plants originally grew in barren desert areas, they did not need much nutrients. If fertilization is not enough, it is likely to cause slow growth. The time of fertilization varies according to different species. Those growing in summer are fertilized in May and those growing in winter are fertilized in September. Generally, fertilization can be done every half a month

2、 Fertilization techniques

1. Fertilizer selection: generally, compound fertilizer with similar proportion of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is better. Because the root system of meat itself is relatively fragile and can not stand strong fertilizer, it must be diluted enough before fertilization. Slow release fertilizer can also be selected, so that the effect of fertility is slow and there will be no burden on its growth

2. Base fertilizer preparation: when planting meat, appropriate base fertilizer is more helpful to its growth. Generally, plant ash, bone meal or rotten animal manure are used. These fertilizers should be mixed in the basin soil, and the amount should not be too much

3. Topdressing method: proper topdressing should be carried out during the growth period. The fast-growing ones are fertilized once every half a month, and the slow ones are fertilized once a month. Don't water before fertilization. Wait until the basin soil is dry and loosen it properly, and then apply fertilizer, which can make the root absorb more fully
