The Reasons For Succulent Turning Red

The most amazing thing about succulents is their size, shape, and color. Any abnormality in the overall appearance will make people feel annoyed and sad. When you find that your succulents will turn red or other colors, you'd better immediately find the root cause of its discoloration and the solution. Otherwise, your succulents may die quietly at an unexpected time. Here we will let you clearly understand the reasons for succulents turning red.

Why is my succulent turning red?

This is why you never expected that succulents will turn red due to extreme environmental conditions. Below I list a few detailed reasons:
 
1. When the succulents are exposed to a lot of sunlight, they will turn red when absorbed for a long time.
2. When the weather suddenly becomes hot or cold, the succulents will also change color.
3. When the plant is not regularly watered and irrigated, it will also change color.
4. When the plant does not absorb enough fertilizer.
5. Poorly nourished soil can also cause it to change color.

When you find that your succulents have some of the above conditions, it proves that your succulents are under some kind of "stress".

 

What is "stress" and is it harmful to succulents?

When I saw succulents for the first time, there would be "stress", I panicked. I am afraid that this thing will have a great effect on my fleshy. But in reality, this so-called pressure can be mixed.
 
In fact, this pressure is good for succulents. Because they are still in the normal growth stage, only a little change in appearance. These discolorations will also add a different color to the overall appearance of the plant.

In addition, if the succulents are attacked by insects, then this "stress" is undesirable and will harm the plants to a certain extent. For example, the spider mites will leave red marks on the plant, which will make the leaves appear deformed. This situation needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
