    I bought one at Lowe's and put it in with my outside succulents. It gets weekly watering but the first 3 tongues just split open so so far so good

    I love these succulents 💗 They're a little tough to keep happy here in Central Florida but I'm giving it another go. Just ordered another one😊 I just couldn't resist.

    What a coincidence I got my Tiger Jaws from a plant swap as well. And yes I mist mine to prevent spidermites but its seems to be growing well.

    I more like it to be called tiger jaws than baby aloe. Some plant shop labeled it that way.

    Hi..how do you fertilize when plants are in such tight pots? Its difficult to see the soil when the foliage covers the pot do you use only liquid fertilizer?

  • @kenjiro2676
    @kenjiro2676 4 роки тому +1

    They have massive taproots, a gritty mix of pumice, turface, chicken grit, and a small portion of soil is best.

      Mine's been very happy in 50/50 potting soil and sand for years! They actually need more water than most mesembs, so too gritty will lead to dehydration pretty fast.

      @@cooperolm9687 perhaps you live in a hotter and drier climate? My tiger jaws would rot in such a water retentive mix, HOWEVER, that is only because my winters are very rainy; so it helps to have a very gritty mix.

      @@cooperolm9687 but I’ll be honest, tiger jaws is one of the hardiest genus in the mesemb family, they can be practically treated like your regular succulents. They can be potted in pure peat and still grow well out doors rain or shine.

    wait a minute, this whole time I thought spider mites hated humidity :O

    • @Banano91f
      @Banano91f 4 роки тому

      That's true, I think she is saying that spider mite can be an indication of low humidity for the plant, in this case is a bit of an expection because usually succulents don't require a lot of humidity to thrive and be resistent to pest.

    I believe that's a tuberculosa not a tigrina.
