1. Spring and Autumn: The climate in spring and autumn is warm and pleasant, which is also suitable for the growth of Haworthia striata, so the management can be a bit extensive. Wait until the soil in the pot is almost dry, then water it thoroughly. If conditions permit, it is best to grow it outdoors and expose it to the sun appropriately. Shade it when the sun feels hot on your skin.

2. Summer: The temperature is high and the light is strong in summer, so the potted plants should be placed in a cool and ventilated place. If the temperature is higher than 33℃, Haworthia will enter a dormant state. At this time, you should reduce watering or even stop watering to keep the soil in the pot dry.

3. Winter: The temperature is low in winter, and the maintenance temperature cannot be lower than 5℃. If the temperature is low, move it indoors to overwinter. If the indoor temperature is high and the light is good during the winter, the Haworthia can continue to grow, but the amount of watering should be less than in spring and autumn.

4. Note: Haworthia is particularly drought-resistant, but is afraid of waterlogging. Novice maintainers would rather let the soil dry than let it be waterlogged. Avoid excessive exposure to the sun in summer and keep the maintenance environment ventilated at all times to prevent black rot and various diseases and pests in succulents.
