How to Grow Succulents Indoors

Because of their special ability to retain water,
succulents tend to thrive in warm, dry climates and don’t mind a little
neglect. This makes them well adapted to indoor growing and ideal for people
desiring low-maintenance houseplants. If you’re choosing succulents for the
first time, follow these steps for successful care of your new plants.

Choose an appropriate succulent for your indoor
conditions.

Most succulents like direct sunlight, but if all you have
is a shaded corner in your house, go with low light-tolerant plants like
mother-in-law tongue. If you plan to grow your succulent in a hanging planter,
a trailing variety like string of bananas is a great choice. Always read the
plant labels to determine the sunlight needs, size, and spread of your
succulents.

Provide a very well-draining potting medium.

Nurseries always plant their succulents in soil that’s too
rich and retains too much moisture, so you’ll want to repot your succulent as
soon as you bring it home. Start with a coarse potting mix with good drainage
and aeration. You can find special cactus and succulent mixes at the nursery,
or even use an African violet mix. To further improve drainage and prevent
compaction, add perlite or pumice to the cactus or African violet mix (up to
50% of the total potting mix, depending on your succulent’s moisture needs).
Always wet the mix before using to ensure its evenly moist.

Choose your container.

When repotting, use a container that has a drainage hole
and is at least 1 to 2 inches larger than the nursery container. Avoid glass
containers (such as mason jars or terrariums) as a long-term potting solution, as they don’t allow roots to breathe and can cause root
rot over time. Fill the bottom one-third of the container with pre-moistened
potting mix, then position your plant inside and backfill with more
pre-moistened potting mix. 

Place the potted succulent in a sunny location.

Most succulents prefer at least 6 hours of sun per day, so
try to place them near a south- or east-facing window. You may notice your
succulents becoming spindly or stretching toward the light if they don’t get
enough sun.

Allow the potting mix to dry out between waterings.

The number-one mistake many people make with succulents is
overwatering them. It’s best to water more, but less frequently. Saturate the
potting mix thoroughly (while ensuring water flows out of the drainage hole
properly) but allow the mix to dry out slightly before the next watering. If
the potting mix stays consistently wet every day, the plant may eventually die.

Fertilize your succulents at least once a year.

The plants benefit most from fertilizer in the spring
(when the days get longer and new growth begins), and again in late summer. Use
a balanced, all-purpose, water-soluble fertilizer (such as 8-8-8 or 10-10-10)
diluted to half the strength recommended on the package instructions. There is
no need to fertilize succulents in winter when they’re semi-dormant., They
don’t need the nutrient boost because they are not actively growing.
