After more than a year of cultivation, the succulent roots will begin to dry up and may become lignified. After lignification, the stems and roots will become stronger and stronger, ensuring that they will not be broken and can support the upper parts. Moreover, the cell wall loses its elasticity, preventing excessive growth in the later stages. In order to promote lignification, it is necessary to get more sunlight to ensure good light stimulation, and at the same time reduce the application of nitrogen fertilizer.

1. Function
1. After more than a year of cultivation, the roots of the succulents will begin to dry up and may become lignified. The stems will turn brown and feel relatively hard, which is also a kind of Normally, black rot does not occur. The process of lignification is that the lignin produced in the cells is gradually deposited. After lignification, the stems and roots will become stronger, ensuring that they will not be broken and can support the upper parts that gradually become heavier.
2. After lignification, the cell wall loses elasticity, and the cells inside will not absorb water and become enlarged, thus avoiding excessive growth in the later stage.
2. Acceleration method
1 2. Get more sun: The roots of succulents become lignified, which has many benefits. It can help the formation of old piles. If you want to promote the lignification of roots as soon as possible, you need to get more sun and ensure good light. Succulents lacking sunlight are difficult to form lignification. . However, summer is special. The intensity of the sun's rays is relatively high, so you should not be exposed to the sun.
2. Reduce nitrogen fertilizer: Reasonable fertilization is required during the growth process. , if the soil is rich in nitrogen, it will affect the synthesis of lignin, so in order to promote the lignification of the roots as soon as possible, it is necessary to reduce the application of nitrogen fertilizer.
