  • This weekend's project was repotting my Euphorbia Ammak Variegated into 3 different pots. This 10" pot I got at Home Depot contained 4 separate plants and all of them were in great condition.
    Stay tuned to the end of the video for a special announcement!

    You got a great deal on those! I think a giveaway for 10,000 is a wonderful idea. I know any plant lover would enjoy that and whatever else you chose to go with it.

    You make that look so easy. I'm sure being dry was a good idea....and look how lovely they look in their own pots. Even the 2 in one! Now they can show off for you! (smile) Thank you again for another great video - you explain well and have such a calming voice. I needed that today.

    I showed my 8 year old daughter this video of you, and she loved this plant as well I do love it 🥰😍. I let her choose a succulent few weeks ago from a store, and she is so cute when she speaks to her plant🥰. We repotted them days ago following your instructions because I felt safe😌 doing it your way, and a couple of days ago we noticed new babies growing up, which make us very happy and that makes me feel hope! 😀😃 Thanks so much for your advices, Mother Earth needs more people like you 💚🙏🏽🤲🌎🌍🌏

      For large cactus or Euphorbia like this, the towel trick works well. For smaller cacti I use a kitchen tong (one that you would use to flip things) and that helps not get pokes.

    Hi Carmen, I have a Euphorbia Lactea White Ghost it used to be lush and plumpy but I noticed that it is thinner and wrinkled. I thought it might've been thirsty so I watered it but it didn't seem to get any better. Since it continued to be wrinkled I took it out of the soil and saw that the soil was still wet near the root system and it has smaller/wet roots along with little rust color. What do you suggest I do? It still did have a few good roots here and there please any tips are greatly appreciated 😊👍🏼

    • @carmenwhitehead
      @carmenwhitehead  4 роки тому

      It sounds like you need a better draining soil. I would get all of the old soil and any dead roots off the plant. Repot it in a new succulent mix and add some perlite for more drainage. Once repotted, give it a good drink of water. Also, try using terra cotta pot.

    • @carmenwhitehead

      If you cut off the top, it will likely heal and grow arms off the sides. I would seal the cut area with cinnamon. It is a natural fungicide and will help reduce rotting. good luck.
