DIY Succulent Planter

Succulents are a popular choice for houseplants because they are low-maintenance and can thrive in a variety of conditions. One way to add a unique touch to your succulent collection is to make your own DIY succulent planter.

There are many different ways to make a DIY succulent planter. One simple option is to use a teacup or mug. Simply drill a drainage hole in the bottom of the cup or mug, and then fill it with succulent soil and plant your succulent.

Another option is to use a concrete pot. Concrete pots are a popular choice for succulents because they are porous and allow excess water to evaporate. To make a concrete succulent planter, you will need a concrete mold, concrete mix, and sand. Mix the concrete mix and sand according to the package directions, and then pour the mixture into the mold. Allow the concrete to cure completely before planting your succulent.

No matter what type of container you choose, be sure to use a well-draining succulent potting mix. Succulents do not like to sit in soggy soil, so it is important to choose a pot with drainage holes.

Once you have chosen your container and potting mix, it is time to plant your succulent. Gently remove the succulent from its nursery pot and loosen the roots. Place the succulent in the center of the container and backfill with potting mix. Tamp down the soil gently to remove any air pockets.

Water your succulent thoroughly and place it in a bright spot. Succulents need at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Water your succulent deeply when the soil is completely dry.

With a little care and attention, your DIY succulent planter will thrive for years to come.
