The cultivation methods and precautions of the succulent silk veil

The succulent silk veil is relatively easy to grow. First of all, it should be planted in pellets like other succulents, and the pellet ratio should be between 60-70%. Secondly, give it sufficient light except in the high temperatures of summer. In addition, water it normally according to the principle of not watering unless the soil is dry, and watering thoroughly when watering. In this way, the silk veil can be grown normally.

How to grow silk veil

In order to grow the succulent silk veil better, you need to use a small pot with high-grain soil to control its growth. The silk veil itself grows fast and is prone to grow tall, so try not to choose a pot that is too large for it. It is not sun-resistant. If the summer temperature exceeds 35℃, it needs to be properly shaded to prevent its leaves from being sunburned.

1. Plenty of light

The succulent Silk Veil must ensure good light during its growth period. It requires sufficient light. Lack of light will cause the leaves to grow too long and the plant shape to become loose. It can be grown in brightly lit balconies, windowsills and other places. When the light is relatively strong in summer, the strong light can be appropriately blocked and only exposed to an appropriate amount of scattered light.

2. Water appropriately

Regular and appropriate watering of the succulent Silk Veil can keep it growing well. Wait until the soil is dry and then water it in time to ensure that it is thoroughly watered so that the soil contains a certain amount of moisture, allowing the roots to fully absorb water. When watering, be careful to water from the edge of the pot and not on the leaves of the plant.

3. Reasonable fertilization

Use certain fertilizers to maintain the nutrients required for the growth of the succulent silk veil. Apply enough base fertilizer when repotting, so that the nutrients can be released slowly to ensure the growth needs of the plant. Apply 1-2 times of thin fertilizer during the growth period, and never use concentrated fertilizer for watering.

4. Maintain temperature

The succulent silk veil can promote good growth in a suitable temperature environment. The temperature must be controlled within an appropriate range, which can be adjusted to around 15-30 degrees Celsius. The climate is cold in winter, so you need to pay attention to keeping warm and can move it indoors for maintenance.

5. Suitable soil

In order to maintain the succulent silk veil well, you should provide soil that is suitable for its growth. You can mix peat soil, vermiculite, perlite, and bone meal, or you can mix it with river sand, leaf mold, garden soil, and slag.

Precautions for the maintenance of succulent silk veil

When caring for the succulent Silk Veil, you should pay attention to the fact that it is very susceptible to sooty mold disease. In summer, it must be placed in a well-ventilated place for maintenance. If other succulents have been infected, they must be kept away from the Silk Veil, otherwise it will be 100% likely to be infected, and it will be very difficult to cure it at that time.
