Succulents grow thick leaves, stems and roots, which store water to enable survival in dry habitats. Cold temperatures are actually less damaging to succulents than overly wet weather. The germination success of succulent seeds depends on the seed quality, growing medium, moisture, temperature and light.
๐Steps how to sow the succulent seeds
๐ต1
Mix together 4 parts sand, 3 parts milled sphagnum moss, 1 part vermiculite, 1 part potting soil and 1 part pumice. Punch drainage holes in the bottom of a seed tray with an icepick. Fill the tray up to the rim with the soil mixture.
๐ต2
Fill a container that the seed tray fits inside with clean rainwater. When germinating succulent seeds, do not use water treated with chemicals, since it can slow down germination. Place the seed tray inside the water-filled container until the surface of the soil is damp.
๐ต3
Sow the seeds evenly over the surface of the soil. Gently press each seed lightly into the soil with the back of a dry spoon. Succulent seeds will stick to a wet spoon. Make sure that the seeds make good contact with the soil.
๐ต4
Sprinkle a thin layer of fine gravel over the surface of the soil, barely covering the seeds. This keeps the succulent seeds from moving around when watered. Leave large seeds uncovered when planting.
๐ต5
Cover the seed tray with clear plastic wrap and set the tray in a warm location. Heat is preferred and will speed up germination, although succulent seeds will still germinate if placed in an unheated area.
๐ต6
Keep the seed tray in an area with bright light because succulent seeds need light to germinate. Light controls the direction of growth, since the stems grow towards the light and the roots grow away.
๐ต7
Remove the plastic cover each day after the seeds have sprouted to allow for the exchange of air. Do not let the soil dry out while dealing with the young plants. Do not hurry to transplant the young succulents. The seedlings can live in the seed tray for about a year.
