Finally, a great video that’s straight to the point!! Thank you🪴
It was my really first youtube video.:)
@@life.greenery6060 I would have never known that this was your first video! Please, please make some more! I Will be looking forward to many more! You are now a favorite of mine on UA-cam!
Great advice for beginners!
thanks...every one has their own way. I just share my experience. :)
I just bought my succulents and I don't know what do next, thanks for this!
Welcome, there are many ways to do it. But this is how I do it usually.
I love this video. I am also a succulent lover. Full support here. I hope to see you around.
Thank you so much for your support :)
Should you pit water in the new soil? When removing soil from roots it auses small abrasions and you need to let them dry and callous before adding any water (like propagating) or it will cause root rot. I heard to repot in DRY soil and not water for 3 days so the wounds on roots can heal
Moisten soil can promote root growth. When we trim the roots, I will air dry it for a day. Then, I will plant it the next day in moisten soil. I did this for over 300 pots of my succulents. Plant in dry soil is definitely fine too. :)
@@life.greenery6060 i didn't see you mention letting the roots air dry. That makes sense. I just thought you were saying to plant freshly trimmed or damaged roots straight into wet soil (that would be bad). But yes if you let the roots dry for a day or 2 then they will be fine, I just didn't see that part sorry
@@TinkerBell-bt6vu haha.. Is me who made this first video which is not that good. Am planning to make an updated version and more detailed. Thanks for your feedback though :)
How many days do new potted succulents take to establish roots again?
How about if the succulents I received is uprooted and air dry already can I directly repot them in the moist soil?
nice sharing!!!!!
this is not that good.. will make another new one..haha
@@life.greenery6060 looking forward for that
Wow, finally a straight forward video for a beginner like me! Just curious though, when we repot, why can’t we reuse the soil that came with the succulent? Do you know why? Thank you in advance!
Depends on places. For humid hot climate like my area. Full cocopeat is not suitble for the environment. Cocopeat is suitable for cool area
@@life.greenery6060 ohhh i see…am from singapore your neighbor hehehe…ok noted. Thank u so much! Hope to see more informative videos from you!
@@anngraven3715 oo. Neighbour, haha, same care la then. But if you are in condo better, cause windy. Good air flow
may I know the composition of soil for your suuculents?
I was hoping u would've named the one n the thumbnail
Am not sure about the exact latin name. But we call this echeveria party dress here:)
Would the LECA on the bottom retain more moisture that will affect water drainage? Thanks!
Hi, leca helps to drain water really well. And it helps with aeration too for the roots :)
Thank you for sharing!
Very helpful video, but how long do you wait before next watering, and how much do you water?
I wait for the soil completely dry or the lower leaves start wrinkling. You can do bottom watering for 15 mins. Or water till water drain out. Make sure your soil is porous enough
Hello, I just got my first few succulents as a gift and I am not sure what to do. I watered them the first day but then realized their roots are coming out of the bottom of the starter pot. Would I be correct to remove all the starter soil and let them air dry for a day and then repot? I am lost in that all of them have overgrown their pots and I am not sure what to do. Thank you, I appreciate any advice please.
May i know your location, climate and the medium it came from the starter pot?
@@life.greenery6060 Yes I live on the west side of Virginia. I plan to keep them inside and they are in those plastic black starter pots about 3”.
@@sherrid2637 your area should be not too hot and not too cold. If your area is temperature doesn't hit 34 celcius in the afternoon. You can use less gritty mix. If it does, raise up the ratio of your gritty mix like pumice, perlite
@@life.greenery6060 thank you
Hi! Rookie plant owner from PJ here. I'd like to confirm, so we don't have to stick the roots into the soil mix ke? Coz it looks like you just positioned the succulent on the soil surface and then added the gravel around it. 🤔
Stick the roots into the soil mix. Sorry this part wasn't clear in this video.
@@life.greenery6060 alright, thank you 🙏
no air drying needed??
If you received plants with bareroot, air dry them. If from pot. Not necessary. :) but if you want to. No harm at all. That's my personal practice only:)
