    I really love your channel, I'm a silent admirer... but this video I need to comment on, as I'm a total succulent-freak and see so many things that could be improved here that I don't recommend for people to copy.
    1) I love the upcycling idea of the tea cans, but there is no drainage so the humidity collects on the bottom. Rather than watering them just a little, they want to be soacked properly with good drainage possibilities after the soil is dry. You wouldn't be able to do that with those cans unless you drilled holes. I'd also plant sucs in a more shallow pot so the babies get space.
    2) Mealy bugs and other pests: Touching a bug and then handling the other plants... OH MY!! You're giving me a heart attack. And re-using a pot that had pests in it without a proper wash... don't even get me started! Plants with pests should always be isolated.
    3) The metal of the cans really heats up, esp in a south facing window, which cause the succulents to BURRRRRN! They'd be so much happier in clay.
    4) Watering after re-planting a succulent is an abolute no-go. Their roots always become damaged from re-potting and you want to wait a few days for the roots to heal over before you water to avoid rot.
    5) I don't know about the rust... but I can't imagine any plant would like to be kept in a rusty environment.
    All in all your succulents don't look happy. Imho, that's because they need a very different kind of care.
    Thumbs up for your succulent mix soil, that's exactly what they need!

    When you said Kalanchoe are your second favourite I was thinking to myself. "Yeah I think its mine too. Crassula is my number one". Then you said the same and I silently cheered lol. I think using these tins is a great way for them to be reused before recycled. 7 years is so much longer than I would think those tins would last for with the water but thats amazing. The kalanchoe pairing with the tooth aloes is great. I like how both plants are pointy. Darn mealies... Hopefully you can get some helpful bugs in to feast on them. :)

    I like the tea caddy pots. Personally I like to bring the gravel almost to the top of the container as it gives better light and air circulation right to the base of the plant and stops pests hiding, you can also clear dead leaves more easily which also helps reduce the pests. Don't forget to compost the paper labels from the tins before you finally recycle them.

      Wanda Owens I’d actually recommend not doing what she does. You’ll notice her plants are pretty unhappy looking. This is because there are no drainage holes, so se can only water very little or she risks root rot. This means all her plants are chronically dehydrated. They may be alive, but your plants will look way better and grow much more with proper drainage.

    If some plants on a shelf are infested with mealy bugs, don't you think all of them may harbor eggs of larvae of those insects? I know the juvenile stage of scale insects are not visible to the naked eye, and I assume it would be the same for mealybugs. I'd spray them all with soap and oil, and maybe consider a systemic if those plants are important for you. If so many are vulnerable to mealy bugs, there may be an issue with the growing conditions on that ledge.

  • @cooperolm9687
    @cooperolm9687 5 років тому +3

    No drainage holes??? No wonder they’re so bedraggled. Probably dehydrated since you can’t give them a thorough watering to get them a proper drink. With succulents you should always be fully saturating the soil until excess water drains from the holes to keep them healthy and happy rather than scraggly and thirsty.

    Love this video. There is something very relaxing about watching you re-potting. Not trying to be weird - just love the calm in such a fast noisy world. I do have a question. I was really surmised to see you throw away the plants with the mealy bugs, but that is what I would have done so thanks for the confirmation, LOL. I have heard that we should not put bug infested plants in our compost. Is that different for mealy bugs?

    You can paint those tea cans & varnish to seal & protect them.

    Keep the rusted tins and spray paint the for flavor with rustoleum. The papery.(is that a word?) Root might be velimin(sp) for water absorption.
