Care for Your Sedeveria 'Maialen' (General)
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight to maintain vibrant colors and compact growth. Some direct morning sun is usually tolerated well.
Soil: Requires well-draining soil to prevent root rot. A commercial cactus or succulent mix is ideal.
Watering: Water thoroughly only when the soil is completely dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering. Reduce watering during the dormant winter months.
Temperature: Prefers moderate temperatures and is generally frost-hardy down to a certain degree (check specific cultivar hardiness), but protection from severe frost is recommended.
Humidity: Adapts well to typical household humidity levels. Good air circulation is beneficial.
Maintenance for a Thriving Plant (General)
Removing Dead Leaves: Regularly remove any dead or dried leaves from the base of the rosettes.
Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant has outgrown its container. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger with drainage holes.
Protecting Farina: If a powdery coating is present, handle the leaves gently.
Pest Control: Monitor for common succulent pests like mealybugs and aphids.
Fertilizing: Generally does not require heavy feeding. A diluted balanced liquid fertilizer can be applied sparingly during the active growing season.
 
Propagation Methods for Expanding Your Collection (General)
Offsets (Chicks): Carefully separate the visible offsets once they have developed some roots. Allow the cut surfaces to callus over before planting.
Leaf Cuttings: Select healthy, plump leaves and allow the cut end to callus for several days before placing them on well-draining soil.
Stem Cuttings: If the plant develops longer stems, sections can be cut, allowed to callus, and then planted in well-draining soil.
