How to care for x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' (4 inch)

Sun/Location: x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' loves light shade sun exposure in the growing period in spring and autumn to develop the pronounced color and rosette shape. A shade net or shed is obligatory to prevent sunburnt in intense hot summer. Artificial growth light is integral to keeping from frost in harsh winter. x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' is also vulnerable to breeding insect pests from winter to spring with insufficient sunshine, worse ventilation, and elevated temperatures. Hence, please pay attention to pest management during these seasons.

Soil/Pot: x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' loves to sit in an excellent permeability planter with good drainage hole like a ceramic pot, terrarium, etc. x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' loves to sit in the porous and ventilated potting soil such as blending the coarse sand or grit to the succulent or cactus soil, evaporating the moisture smoothly to avoid rot roots. Repot in warm spring to upgrade the growth environment, and trim the roots and wrinkled blades at the bottom to help x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' regenerate healthier.

Watering: x Graptoveria 'A Grim One', the same as most succulents, is drought-tolerant, requiring infrequent watering. x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' hates wet feet. The soak-and-dry method is generally applied when the potting soil is bone dry. The immersive watering method is also recommendable if placed in a ventilated and breathable location. Avoid x Graptoveria 'A Grim One' in time during the rainy season, keeping out of the rain. Be careful to water along the edge of the pot to the potting soil instead of the rosette and foliage, preventing waterlogging, bacteria, and fungal diseases.
