Its plant is in the shape of a small ball with a diameter of about 8 cm to 12 cm. The surface of the ball is light gray and green, and there are red brown longitudinal crisscross lines on it. On the top of its sphere is a very small yellow green flower, which looks pretty. It prefers places with lots of sunshine, so it's also important to pay attention to when raising them. What are the specific methods?

1. light

This fleshy plant generally likes sunshine, but it is also afraid of exposure, so it can enjoy the sunshine all day in spring and winter. But in the summer when the temperature is high, we need to block the sun to a certain extent, and also need to maintain a better ventilation environment, so that it can grow better. So light is also very important.

2. temperature

It is not cold resistant and prefers a mild place, so in winter we must make the soil in the basin dry and keep the temperature above 5 ℃. Because the temperature is too low, there will be frostbite and sometimes death. But also can not be too high temperature, because it is also afraid of exposure to the sun, or appropriate cooling, never too high temperature

3. moisture

It's the same as other meaty animals, and it can stand drought. So we must wait until it's completely dried before watering. If it's not dried, don't water it. When it's growing, it's usually watering when it's dry, but remember never to use the head to drench it. In spring, water supply also depends on the situation. Water it slowly, and it must be watered according to the weather. So watering is also very heavy for it, can't water randomly

4. soil

The requirement of fleshy cotton ball to soil is not particularly high. Generally, the cultivated soil is the plain sand soil with better drainage. Then mix a little peat, the proportion is also random, but it must be based on air permeability. Generally, succulent plants prefer good drainage and air permeability soil, so when selecting soil for cultivation, we should also pay attention to it, and must meet its requirements for soil quality. Otherwise, it is not good for its growth.
