Tutorial on DIY succulent potted plants from grape old roots. Succulents are cute, but if you just grow a variety quietly in a small pot, you won't be able to discover their true beauty. The real cuteness of succulents is mixing and matching~ Isn’t it very special to use old discarded grape roots as flower pots~ Let’s try it together~
Main materials:
Grape vines, succulents, sphagnum moss
Tools required:
Cultivation soil, hemp rope
Palm bark, spoon
Tweezers
Production steps:
Step 1:
Choose grapevines of suitable shape. If there are no grapevines, you can use other alternatives, such as old tree stumps or old boards...
Step 2:
It is suitable to choose good grapevines that can form a boat shape when placed together ~ Of course, if you like itOther shapes are also available~
Step 3:
After deciding on the shape, use hemp rope to fix the grapevine~
Step 4:
The flower stand is fixed~ It may be adjusted according to the shape of the bottom of the pocket~ For example, if the flower stand is narrower, the soil will be lost, and it needs to be widened
Step 5:
The bottom of the bag is made of palm bark. If there are no palm trees, you can also use sack sheets and sunshade nets...
Step 6:
Cut it to the size of palm bark, slightly larger so that the soil will not fall out.
Step 7:
Grow live succulents in pots and move them to a pergola.
Step 8:
Put in soil: 45% river sand, 20% vermiculite, 20% garden soil, 13% peat, 2% bone meal
Step 9:
Install the succulents one by one, leaving some room for growth.
The brush is used to clean the dust on the rattan at the end
Step 10:
This is a delicate job, not for those with clumsy hands and weak fleshy bodies~
Using spoons, knives, and tweezers instead of professional tools is a little trick that I won’t tell most people!
Step 11:
Use pre-soaked sphagnum moss and put it into the gap between every two succulent plants.
Sphagnum moss needs to be squeezed out of the water. Succulent plants cannot tolerate flooding and will cause root rot.
Step 12:
Preliminary completion~Switch to a few more angles to observe. If there is any unsightly placement or soil leakage, deal with it in time~
Step 13:
Put it at home to slow down the seedlings, and the sun will be visible after a week.
Place the leaves that were accidentally knocked off in a small pottery pot and wait for germination.
Step 14:
Usually, you can use a small straw and drop a little water. One! Must! Need! Less! Water!
