How is the care of succulents?
Succulents have all the characteristics to be indoor plants, since they adapt to the environment.
But like any natural plant, it requires certain care.
Succulent plants need more attention, since a simple carelessness can lead to their death, so keep the following aspects in mind.

Although the silvers have little sun, we must place them in spaces where the sun's rays do not directly project them.
The rays of the sun at certain times are more powerful, damaging the body of the plant, so even if it is indoors, you must place them where only the lighting from the outside projects them, avoiding the sun's rays.
2. Hydrate them
As for the water, you must add enough to it every 3 days, this way you will allow the plant to extract only what is necessary to keep up with what it retains in its body.
This will also depend on the temperature of the area where you live, so if you see that the soil dries quickly on the first day you should put water on it every 2 days.
3. Nurture them
To enhance its care, you can provide it with natural compost, either purchased or with the residues of vegetable shells and wood remains.
The fertilizer nourishes the plant, strengthening its body and highlighting its natural colors.
The purchased compost is placed in small quantities every half year, but the natural with residues, can be placed whenever possible, since in the soil of the plant it will decompose little by little.
Natural succulents are elements that will undoubtedly give a different and exotic touch to your home, filling it with the charm of nature and giving it that elegance you need.
