Hi Guys :-D In this video we show you How to save a rotting Hoodia or Stapelia Succulent Plant
Instablaster.
Yes thumbs up for Hans for cutting up this Stapelia to try and save as much as possible of it! I hope that it is doing well now! Will look up for the up-dates! Wishing you Lyn and Hans a wonderful evening! Lots of love!
Thanks so much Sylvia :-D I managed to save to of the pieces and they have recovered so well, but the larger piece and one of the little ones didn't make it long term, but thankfully the other two recovered really well, thanks so much Sylvia for your wonderful comments and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Malta for a terrific afternoon XXXX
Such a shame when this happens, seems a lot of people have lost plants this winter, myself included as you know with my Neochilinea 😔
Hopefully this one will recover nicely Lyn 😊 Well done Hans for performing the operation too, top job 👍🏻 Thanks for sharing as always Lyn, from Edith & myself to you and Hans, have a wonderful evening ❤️😊🌵🌼🌸🌺🏜
The winter is such a tough time for our plants Daz, and we was so gutted for you when we saw your Neochilinea, this Winter has been extra tough with the storms and so much grey cloud cover and endless rain, we are so in need of the Spring now, by Feb I really have had enough haha :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching Daz, and Hans and I are sending you and Edith lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to England and Singapore for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
Renate Hörmann
Hallo nice Lady Lyn and
Hallo Mister Hans!
This was a very interesting
Video and I want to thank both of us that you are showing us!
This was really like a
Crime film, but in a positive way! !
I hope that your cactus will be getting better and growing again 4 you!
Thanks a lot for this very interesting Video! Always we all can learn a lot from ouer Videos, but where you have got the scalpel? ????
Hoping Hans had no problems on his hands, because of the Spikes. ....
Hoping to see the Cactus in the Springtime again, please!
Yours sincerely from renate to you nice Lady Lyn and Mister Hans too! Gongratulation for the operation from the Cactus Hans! !
Till to the next video!
Bye, bye from Vienna! 👏👍👌🎶🎵🌵🌵🌵
Thanks so much dear Renate for your fantastic comment :-D I am so happy that this plant was saved and Hans was so good at saving it with the scalpel, I will make an update video on this plant in the future, and that I hope it makes a good recovery :-D thanks so much for your fantastic friendship and for all your wonderful support and wonderful comments and for watching dear Renate, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Vienna and have a wonderful day today XXXXX
Hans to the rescue 😂 I have to say Lyn cactus’s are so much like desert roses, I have to do somewhat the same thing to the caudex (the bulb or the bum, that’s known in the D.R terms) ... we’ve had crap weather over here atm from it raining heavily to it being so so hot (some days nearly 40 degrees) and I’ve lost 6 of my junior plants, but that crap does happen unfortunately ... but thank God you got to this gorgeous cactus in time, yayyyy ... one other thing I totally agree with you is, YES it is crucial to get all that rot out, if not it’s just a waste of time, bc the rot WILL come back and 100% to seal the cut with ground cinnamon, it’s a natural healing powder to any plant really ... thank you Lyn and Hans, this video is VERY informative. 👍🏼🌵👍🏼
Oh No Cher, so sorry to hear that you have lost 6 of your junior plants this year, rot is such a pain when we get it on our plants and your Desert Roses are so very beautiful, its gutting if you lose them, the rain is such a pain, Cinnamon powder is fantastic for healing the cuts I agree and it smells so wonderful too haha
Fingers crossed for them! I had a few casualties this winter, too. Strange when it happens when they are completely dry.
Its such a shame that you have lost plants too Ana, Winter is such a tough time for our plants with the shorter days, and even when we do everything we know is right we can still lose them its so gutting, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching Ana and sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Las Vegas for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
Thank you Lyn and Hans for showing how to cut out the rot portion of the cacti 🌵 and save the plant 👍💚 love the cacti and succulent paper towel ❤️💚♥️💗
Thanks so much J M :-D so happy you love the cactus paper towels too haha
Saw this on my suggested video, huhu is this a sign I have to do this to my new hoodia, remember the one I recently unboxed which were soaking wet. They’re all ok, it’s just that the hoodia is a bit soft at the base huhu. Glad I saw this video in case I need to do this soon. Thank you for the tips 💚🌵
Thats wonderful news that your new plants that you got that got wet in the box are all ok, I will be keeping my fingers crossed that the Hoodia will be ok for you and hopefully you don't need to do an operation on it, thanks so much my wonderful Cactus Powered Sister for your fantastic friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Wales for a wonderful evening and weekend XXXX
Ditch me a lot about succulent plants I know nothing about them, but love them🥰
So happy you love Succulents too Gilda :-D they really are amazing :-D and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Tuesday XXXX
Just found rot on mine yesterday. Fortunately, I know where to go for great information! Thank you Lyn and Hans for the great videos 😊
Thank you so much Laura
Just had to perform Sergey on my Hoodia 😢 I am a first timer having a greenhouse and moved it in a week or so ago. I rushed and didn't swab with alcohol between 😮 but did put cinnamon on the cuts. How tragic 😢😢😢 Thank for this video 🌵🌵🌵🌵
Oh no so sorry to hear about your Hoodia Odette, but thats great you have put cinnamon on the cuts and I hope it recovers really well for you, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle XXXX

I am so happy that this plant was saved in time and I will make a future update video on how it recovers :-D thanks so much dear Kathy for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
Great video, extremely helpful, like the tip Handsy did exposing the core to allow roots to pop out quicker💚 hands down a cacti queen 🌵👑 I'm interested to learn more about keeping them upright position while they callous over
So happy you loved the video and found it useful too and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Tuesday XXXX
Dandy video! Thanks!
thanks so much Mickey for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Tuesday XXXX
Fingers crossed, impossible to know what happened there but these are living creatures subject to diseases too. But she was well treated and surgery was a success !!!!
Thanks so much Fernanda :-D I will be keeping my fingers crossed that this plant makes a good recovery
Good information. Let us know the results in a few weeks. I am not usually so lucky myself when trying to save plants like that or rotting ones. Awesome video
So happy you loved the video Ken :-D thankfully these cuttings are callusing over nicely and I will make another update on them in the next week or two :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Japan for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
Aww Lyn, the poor plant! Luckily Prof Dr Hans Greenfingers was able to take charge and perform an excision to save the patient. Hope this lovely little thing will recover and take root for you soon. I think it's the cold and damp climate we get this time of year. I had an incident with mould over the weekend and a few of my cactus seedlings perished overnight! Cinnamon hasn't worked for me in the past so this time I sprayed the remaining seedlings with a mix of boiled water and a little tea tree oil. Warning: don't try this at home because my seedlings turned white (probably from shock!!)! End of experiment...wishing you lots of abundance and plant power across Ireland : - )
Oh no I am so sorry to hear about your cactus seedlings Jutta, thats such a shame, and so very true the cold and damp climate in the winter really takes its toll on our plant babies, this Winter has been really tough with the storms and endless rain we have had over the last few weeks, roll on spring i say, by Feb I have had enough hahaha :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from Belfast to Dublin for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
A very good video!!!
So happy you loved the video Edward :-D and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
My Hoodia has just done the EXACT same thing! I noticed it leaning too :( This was watered, about 2 weeks ago.
Oh no so sorry to hear about your Hoodia, fingers crossed it will make a good recovery, thanks so much Jon for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic afternoon XXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon I put cinnamon on mine too. I went straight to youtube to see if the same had happened to anyone else's Hoodia and saw your video Lynn! I see yours survived.
Yes guys s#&t happens! I lost my Hoodia bainii many years ago to the same thing! But was not able to save it. When I plant cuttings like this, I like to use a rooting hormone powder on the callused area & mix a bit in the soil I use to give it a little push, seems to work well. Just planted a couple of Euphorbia evansii cuttings I've had setting on a shelf since fall cause I noticed one was blooming! No roots or anything! The mother plant isn't even blooming! I will have to do a two step cutting method on them when they start growing to get the normal " tree" form or they will just grow like a long branch. It's how I grew my " mother tree" when I bought it 36 years ago as a rooted cutting. Best of luck with that Hoodia, looks like you have a good chance! From Morris park in the Ozarks to across the Emerald isle have a great day!!!!!
So true Clyde s**t happens and so sorry that you lost your Hoodia bainii to the same thing too, the Winter is such a testing time for our plants with the short days and cold and wet and snow etc, Thats a brilliant tip with the rooting hormone too, and brilliant news that you have your Euphorbia evansii cuttings blooming even without roots haha, our plants never fail to surprise us, thats amazing Clyde :-D I will definitely make an update video on these cuttings and so far they seem to be callusing over nicely :-D thanks so much for your wonderful friendship and for all your fantastic comments and for watching and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Deb and all the pets and plants all lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Morris Park in the Ozarks for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
I plant my hoodia and others from that family that are rot prone such as edithcolia, etc.in pure mineral potting soil. No organic matter in the mix and I grow mine hard with high light, air movement and light watering.
Thats a brilliant tip with how you grow your Hoodia's Edward, I have heard of others who say about the pure mineral soil being the best for these as they are very rot prone, thanks so much for your wonderful support and for all of your comments and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle and have a fantastic day XXXXX
Binge-watching all your cactus cutting videos to make sure I did it correctly for my Mammillaria spinosissima haha. I cut off the rotted parts in April. It calloused over great in a few weeks but still no roots since then. Is that normal? I did place the calloused cuttings in soil but haven’t watered. They are pretty tiny and I hope I can save it since I’ve had this cactus since I was young. Anyway, keep up the awesome videos!! 💖👍
Hi Eva Elizabeth :-D so happy you are enjoying my videos
@@desertplantsofavalon thank you so much, lyn! ❤️
@@evaelizabeth5101 XXXX
Thank you for the vid on saving the cacti. I had a Trichocereus develop a black spot up high on the body. I followed the same steps that you did , wound up with a 3 inch piece in a small pot and the majority of the plant in a nice pot( after a week of drying) . Thanks for the hint about cinnamon, I will use it the next time I need to do surgery. Really enjoy the vids, keep them coming. Can you recommend some places to get some of the different cacti?
Well done on saving your Trichocereus Charles, I hope it continues to make a fantastic recovery :-D yes the Cactusshed.co.uk and KakteenHaage.com and UhligKakteen.com are brilliant places to get a nice variety of cacti online, and a better choice than the shops, So happy you are enjoying the videos too, and thank you for watching them, and thanks so much for your wonderful comment
Oh no! Hoodie is how I originally found your channel. I hope it will be ok. I just lost Tavaresia grandiflora. Those are so hard to find. I did this cut and everything you did but no dice. I don't know how I'll replace it. I hope you have better luck here. Yes you can do everything right, you can be a pro, but stuff always happens.
So sorry to hear that you have lost your Tavaresia grandiflora Des, thats such a shame, I really hope that you can find one to replace it, I will be watching more of your videos in the next day or two and looking forward to watching, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thanks. Yeah I'm on the look out. Oh wonderful. I do post lost of plant videos I think you'd like. I see your comments on thers I like and see you don't just watch cactus so I think you'll like my other plants.
@@ScaryFear XXXXXX :-D
Just did all this with my Edithcolea grandis... 🤪👍 Rotten succulents suck!
Oh no Todd, so sorry that you had this happen to your Edithcolia too, this time of year is a nightmare with the shorter days but thankfully Spring is nearly here, I really hope that your Edithcolia makes it, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Florida for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
Your paper towels look like my shower curtain I got in walmart!
I bet your Shower curtain is FANTASTIC Jeanne :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
I think the pot is very small could it be the reason ?I also have noticed something during my short period experience that clay pots seem to keep those amazing plants (cactus and succlents) healthier.
Yes the pot may have been not the best for the root system, thanks so much for sharing your tips on the clay pots too, the clay pots are great for rot prone plants, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
hi I know this is a really late comment - but my very small cactus has done this, its called a black gymno and ive had to slice it in half.. what are the chances of saving it? do I just let it dry for a few weeks and see what happens? your video was really helpful and I hope im able to save my cactus as its one of my favourites!
Hi there, so sorry to hear about your cactus, it can be a bit hit and miss if it can survive but you have done the best thing to cut the rot off, let it dry for a few weeks, hopefully your cactus should form a callus where it has been cut and should re grow over time, keep the cactus in a airy light position but away from direct sunshine until it has fully dried and formed a white hard scab over the cut, good luck with your cactus and thanks so much for your comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful Wednesday XXXX
@Desert Plants of Avalon have you managed to save them? how are the cuttings?
Thanks so much for asking, yes I managed to save two of the cuttings, and they are growing well, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a super Sunday XXXX
Bad year for me this time around I've lost a few to rot. Hard to explain why.
Oh no I am so sorry to hear that you have lost a few this year too, Winter is such a tough time for our plants and roll on spring I say, this winter has been particularly tough with the storms and heavy rain and endless lack of sun, roll on spring I say, thanks so much Dave for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
My whole xmas cactus plant just fell apart from root rot so I'm gonna try to root whats left, sad.
Oh No Shannon so sorry to hear about your Xmas Cactus, I really hope that you can save the rest by cuttings, thats such a shame, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle to Canada for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thanks, your always so nice!
@@shannoncarr7338 XXXXX
Probably bacterial, I'd think? and it goes quick too! One day they're fine, day or two later... Mush!
So true I think it could be bacterial too Todd, I am keeping my fingers crossed for this plant, just catching up on You Tube now and looking forward to catching up with your videos over the next couple of days :-D XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon I'm doing a video now, busier than a one armed man in a row boat! And, I've a couple new tillandsia coming in today!
@@toddstropicals Thats fantastic news Todd :-D so looking forward to seeing them XXXXX
Why didn't u use the yellow sulphur powder on the cut ends?
Hi Christina :-D I have changed now from the sulphur to the cinnamon as the sulphur powder is hard to find for sale now in the shops and the cinnamon is much easier to get and smells so much nicer too haha, but they both do the same thing, but the cinnamon is much cheaper also, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic Thursday XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalonthanks Lynne!☺
