Basc Care for Agave Snow Glow

Watering

Can you water your succulent more than what its need? The answer is yes and no. In extreme conditions, you can water your plants more often when you notice the soil is completely dry.

One simple tip for you is that you can use some online apps to check the soil status before you go water your succulents. I would recommend the ThePlantsCheck app, it has some nice features there.

Fertilizing

Only feed this succulent during its active growing seasons which means no information. Use the right fertilizer applied in the right amounts. Applying half-strength balanced fertilizer every month or so is recommended for optimal results.

Do not fertilize during winter as the plant is dormant.

To ensure Agave Snow Glow grows to its fullest potential, make sure it receives plenty of direct sunlight.
