Thankful so much 4 ur insights! Been struggling so much with making my tropical plants happy in not sunny de but your rational+knowledge insights i suspect will change the world. Thank u, u b djentuss
Thank you. Appreciate your concerns. 😊💜 I think the gardens, who always overwater their succulents and cacti, should skip adding cocopeat in their potting mix. 😊💜
As long as you don’t use too much it’s not going to leave the soil in a soggy wet mess which is what rots cactus and succulents. It’s also with a gritty mix to which will create air pockets so it doesn’t stay too wet for too long.
Hi, going to propergate some kalancheo cuttings. What soil mix would you recommend? Like watching your tutorials. Could you make a video on kalancheo plant? TIA
You can use the soil mix recipe I have shared in the video or you can prepare a simple soil by mixing 1 part fine sand & 1 part compost to propagate the cuttings. Also, here is a detailed video on kalanchoe propagation you can check out 👉 ua-cam.com/video/NIGHnESAk10/v-deo.html 🌷🌷
Very good vídeo, thanks for sharing my dear friend. Wonderful and beautiful cactus *A GREAT JOB* Have happy Sunday. God bless you and family 🍀 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 🙏 🙏
Do you mean how often I water my cacti and succulents? I water my cacti when 90% of the soil is dry. And in the case of succulent, water them when the top 2-3 inches of soil dries out. I check my plants individually before watering. 🙂🙂
Hi I belong to Noida..too hot weather here..I am getting some cactus n Sacculents from Bhimtaal nurasary. . Please guide me for the soil mix..cocopeat n vermiculite should I add in soil mix? And what more ?
I apologise, that video has some technical issues. You can try this advance succulent soil mix, which is well-draining as well as prevent root rot 👉ua-cam.com/users/shortsrUb14WbeTHA?feature=share
I'm from Bangladesh and it works well for me so far. You can try premium succulents & cactus soil mix 👉ua-cam.com/video/pfpEYY-ep4U/v-deo.html It is two times more well-draining. 😊🌱🌱🌱
You need to graft the moon cactuses if you want to keep them forever. 😊😊🌼🌼🌼 otherwise D-grafted baby moon cactus will die after planting in potting mix. 😞
Check the soil moisture, over-watering rot cacti and turn the plant red, the plant can turn red due to sun stress, but overheating can rot the plant as well. 🌱🌻🌱🌻
I heard about bricks pieces can be used as alternatives for perlite but will that Bricks pieces won't get spyrogyra and damage the plants and garden soil many people uses is it suitable to use in Indian climate
Brick chips can be used as an alternative to Akadama soil but still, that is not 100% work similar to the Akadama soil. And I normally do not use soil in all types of succulents(generally do not use in echeveria, graptopetalum, etc.). But sandy soil can be used. 😊😊🌺🌺🌺🌼🌼

Highly appreciate your support...🌷🌷💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
I think we should skip using cocopeat for succulents and cactus as it retains moisture for very long time which may lead to root rot in our plants.
Thank you. Appreciate your concerns. 😊💜

Without it your soil will become basically concrete and will be neqrly impossible to hydrate without soaking.
1 cup of each: coco peat, perlite, 1:40
1/2 cup of each: brick chips, charcoal, compost 2:24
1/2 ts fungicide, optional
+ ½ cup sand - medium fine white construction type
Can we use this soil mix in 40degree climate
Yes, you can use it. Even I belong to zone 12.🌱🇧🇩🌹
The cactus you were showing that's not mammillaria it's echinopsis variety 😊
Ohh, I was wrong then! thank you so much❤️🍒
@@Plantalogy ❤
1 cup cocopeat
1 cup perlite
Half brick chip
Half cup carchoal
Half cup medium
Half cup White sand
Half cup compost
Half tea spoon fungicide

Mam what fertilizer should i add if i want it to grow fast.
Succulents & cactus are slow-growing plants. You can apply that fertilizer alone but for better results, use it when the temperature is below 26°C. 🌻🌻
Nice
Wao beautiful
Plz help.....my cactus is turning red... What to do?
Check the soil moisture, over-watering rot cacti and turn the plant red, the plant can turn red due to sun stress, but overheating can rot the plant as well. 🌱🌻🌱🌻
@@Plantalogy then what should i do now?
👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍
What fungicide powder do you use?
I use mancozeb containing fungicides.😊😊🌻🌻
Where do u buy the separate ingredients
From a garden center. 🙂
I heard about bricks pieces can be used as alternatives for perlite but will that Bricks pieces won't get spyrogyra and damage the plants and garden soil many people uses is it suitable to use in Indian climate
Brick chips can be used as an alternative to Akadama soil but still, that is not 100% work similar to the Akadama soil.

You did almost everything wrong and your cactus is elongated.
Thanks for your advice 😊☘️🌷
O my goodness. Please just dump it out. Why garnish before mixing?
