Thank you so much for doing this video. Using bubble wrap seems an excellent idea and I would not have thought about this on my own. Thanks so much!
You're welcome Robert and thanks for watching and commenting.
Quite informative for those of us who need to repot a cactus- Gracias
Thank you, Liz! Wow, bubble wrap... who’d have thought...another fantastic lesson!!🎄✌🏼

Thanks for watching Bree.
Nicely done little Sister and she looks good in your garden ❤️❤️❤️. Have a blessed evening 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you! You too!
Been worrying how to repot my bunny ears cactus that’s getting too big , this is great !! Thank you so much !
Thats a beautiful happy cactus now.
I love that pot!
Wow..ganda ng cactus may mga pups na at ang laki pa.😍 galing mo naman po tita.👏 that gives me an idea.🥰 the bubble wrap and the bamboo stick.🥰
You’re really highlighting how neglected the poor cactuses are at my Mum’s house. They both share a plastic pot that is a little longer but a lot shallower than either of these. They have probably been there at least a decade and the dirt has never been changed. One has grown literally 6 foot tall and it toppled over because the pot couldn’t hold it upright. It has to be leaned against the wall and propped up to even stay upright. And it’s covered in cobwebs. And it shares the pot with another large cactus too.
We’ve been too chicken to repot them due to the spines but the bubble wrap is a great idea. I just hope I don’t kill them in the process!
The bubble wrap is a great idea.. 👍
Oh thanks for sharing I've been trying to find ways to help support my neighbours tall cacti like that now I know thanks for sharing🥰🥰
Glad I could help.
I will definitely use your bubble wrap tip👌🏼hopefully it will work out because my one is the same shape but longer spines
That was a nice sound from your chimes

💞
I “dig” it😂
Thank you i have a 4 foot cactus and was wondering how to do it without getting stuck to death
I'm about to attempt this with a 4 foot tall super spiky San Pedro. the spikes are 3 inches so I dont think bubble wrap is enough. I have to break the pot it will not come loose.. im scared. 😂 I have a new fantastic pot that I hope will keep it for another couple years. I've never uses support but it sure does sway in the wind so I'm thinking about support. I've had this from seed for 10 years. love the videos thanks for sharing.
Great tip with the bubble wrap. My golden torch is 1.5m tall with a few 50cm pups, wish me luck. BTW 39c here in Nundle today with 40 expected tomorrow
It's been warm here in Canberra. 37and dry the other day and 29 and overcast/wet the next. I can put up with the dry heat but not the humidity. Keep cool.
Wow Inday Lizk a different cactus but lovely in appearance..careful
Thank you, I will.
my cactus as out grown the pot and needs repotting but the thorns are so long a good inch and ive no idea how to get it out the pot, ill try this method but think need a lot more bubble wrap
💜
I love all of your videos Liz please let me know if you can give me any information on where to get the ingredients you use for your succulent mixes so that I can make some here at home for my babies!
Thanks for watching Juan. I get most of my ingredients from Bunnings Warehouse Australia and the granite from Corkhill Bros. Landscaping Supplier in Mitchell, ACT. Link below and pick the yellow granite.

💚🌵🤩😘
God blessed me with a free cactus today and I have no clue how to handle it to repot or what the specific care is for such a beautiful plant but I am going to listen to whatever you say :)
Best of luck. May your cactus grow and grow. 🥰
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK aw! Thanks for responding!
I think it's more than one cactus lol there's about five of them in this big pot they're about two and a half feet tall give or take they are spotting at the bottom where they are sitting in the soil not too sure what that means
watching from Mindanao
always watching your vlog po para makakuha ng idea para sa aking succulents and cactus
sana mapansin ❤❤❤
Hello Merry, Hope di ka mag-tampos. Salamat po.
Good evening Ms. Liz! Am watching from Lipa, Batangas. How are ur plants now after the typhoon?
They have a bit of scars but they're doing well. Hope things are great over your way. Thank you and good evening to you too Emily.
Mine is 8' tall, has 1.5" spikes and is very top heavy...
Thank you for the video! What variety is this cactus? I have one that looks like that but doesn’t give me little babies like yours, he is just grows taller and taller!
I wasn't given a name but possible a Saguaro. I was given one cutting and upon planting it in the soil, it produced a baby; while the mother plant it was taken from did not give off a baby. Some can even take years before having offsets.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thank you so much! ♥️
I have that exact cactus. We call him Phil and he is close to 6 ft tall. Is it possible to cut him down without killing him. If so, how and were do we cut?
A couple of weeks before Spring is the best time to do this. You can cut anywhere as long as it's not too low. Let it dry up or callous over for a couple of weeks, and then plant in moist but not wet soil. When summer comes, it should be rooted and the babies should start showing on the mother plant.
Love the bubble wrap, but a few questions...
1) why didnt you remove the wet soild that it came with before potting into your mix?
2) Do you use your master soil mix with cactus? Or something different?
3) i really want to make your master soil. Can you please tell me which brand of non-fertilized potting mix you buy from Bunnings? Almost all of them I see in Brisbane Bunnings has some level of slow-release fertilisers in it.
- thank you!
Thanks for watching. RE your question. 1. Been told by the seller that the cactus has been growing in this pot outside for three years. I thought why mess with it so left it. Didn't know that she lied(lol) and the pot has no hole.
2. Master soil mix. 3. Richgro all purpose potting mix and compost mix.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thank you very much Liz! Love watching all your videos! Now I am going back to bunnings again. Lol
Dpat po pla hnd tinatapon bubble wrap potholder po kc ginagamit ko,at ako din po Ang naghahalaman na takot sa bulate😁gud evening po ❤️
Any tips for repotting a 6ft version of the same cactus? I'm dreading it!
If it was me...I would wrap with bubble wrap in 3 or 4 sections along the plant. Get a couple of long stick for support & attached to the cactus. Wrap again with bubble wrap all the way along and then wrap with old bed sheets and towel for good measure. Secure and repot with at least two person holding the cactus along. Good luck!
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK great tips, thanks! Bubble wrap, towels and sticks will definitely help the process...last time we did it we came out the other side absolutely covered in cuts and puncture wounds 🤣🤣
Hi. I just repotted a Silver torch that was way too large for it's pot and root bound. After cleaning the roots and letting dry for a few days I just repotted it. The new soil is bone dry. Being that it's October should I hold off on watering for now? Thanks for any info.
Would have been better if you've waited till spring to repot since they're slowly going into dormancy. I would leave it dry and water it in spring unless you can take it indoors where it's warm and keep it in a place with plenty of sunlight.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thanks for responding. Yeah it's my first cactus and it'll be kept indoors. The roots were so matted under the drainage holes after i bought it that I cut the plastic pot it was in with very little damage to the roots. I have a very bright SW facing window it'll be in. The room temp is approx 72° all year long. Should I still hold off watering for a bit or just water sparingly? Thanks again... it's just a gorgeous little cactus and don't want to make anymore mistakes.
@@tashalousdadful I know it's a little scary to not water it, but they can handle no watering for a long time. With fresh open wounds from the roots, its best to let them callous off for a while and that would take at least a week. Since you only have a month to go before winter, I would hold off watering. In Springtime, I would give it a good soaking overnight in cactus fertilizer and then water it again when soil is dry or check every 6 weeks; depending on the size of the pot. Rule of thumb is to water heavily(soak) but less often. Wishing you all the very best.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK than you so much... Bob.
can we please have a front garden tour
On the 'to do list.' Thanks!
What species is this cactus? It looks exactly like mine but I don't know
Saguaro (Carnegiea gigantea)
I would have just used a masonry bit and drilled the original pot so it had holes
maayo nlng nadiskobre nimo dayon miss LizK, or else unsaon nalang
what kind of cactus is it
I wasn't given a name but possible a Saguaro.
Quick question.
Why some video i watch their put rock/lava rock before their put soil? And you’re not doing it 😅
I do also in some cases. In this situation, no need to.
I see.. thank you for your reply. one more question. Ehehe. after i put my cactus into a pot with the soil, do i need to water it?
@@bariqramadhan4586 Only if the soil is dry.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thank you for your kind help :D
Nice job😊👍💞I grow many cacti and orchids too here in Japan. I have a channel on UA-cam😎🙏☀️That cactus you repotted is a Trichocereus spachianus🥰👏
Thank you very much. Much appreciated. I've now change the name. Thanks for watching and wishing you all the very best with your channel.
What's the name of that 🌵
I wasn't given a name but possible a Saguaro.
Thank you.. Great video.
A female cactus has babies ❤
Am I the only freak who cleans the old soil off the roots and repot a day or two later? Lol
No you're not alone. I'm probably the only one who "Doesn't" clean off the roots. Thanks for watching.
Well if you do it and you have had no problems with it then I will start doing it. Imagine trying to pot your saguaro with loose roots. It’s almost dangerous lol for both me and the cactus lol
If only all the world's problems can be solved with masking tape and bubble wrap.
