    Great information in this video, I learned a lot about pigments. Light intensity is also a major factor in getting plants to color up. My light is extremely bright and I have just as vivid colors with less hours and more watering (I get it up to 18 hours in the summer). I don't like the dehydrated look of a lot of your plants to be honest.

    Great tips JustThangToo. I learnt so much. I spent years establishing my collection and now that it's established I had no idea they could go for months without water because in their early days when I worked full time I'd forget to water them and they'd die. Really enjoyed your tips and cant wait to get more colours. Have you got any videos of how to get your cacti flowers not to die? I have a cacti that after 3 years finally grew a few buds but was really disappointed when I went out yesterday to find them all dead :(

  • @ThaGamingMisfit
    @ThaGamingMisfit 4 роки тому +8

    Nice informative video ! Personally I think most of your plants don't look great at all, it almost looks like they are sick, but that's a matter of preference. I prefer less shriveled leaves and blister-type things. The intensity of the light is also important. I would never give any plant less than 8 hours of darkness, my succulents that receive 14 hours of 2000-3000 footcandles of light a day also have nice pinkish colouring, but look a lot healthier than yours. But yeah they might be less compact, but at least they grow !

    It's summer here in Philippines. My succulents are placed outdoor with no shade under heat that ranges 32-36 degrees. But it doesn't change its pigment. I tried not to water for two weeks and it lost much leaves. But my black prince became darker and pushed a lot of pups but stopped growing. Atleast its dark and got many pups under it.

    Does giving succulents proper full sun bring out colors as well? I've got ovata compacta (jade compacta) and I've seen others with soo much orangey red. Also my sedum I think it is fire storm but never gave enough sun to see the orange coloration. I think I see a bit coming thru with my vipaspectra grow light 600w dimmable led, I think they love it

    • @ThangPlants
      @ThangPlants  2 роки тому

      some are done with full sun, others are done with high or low temperature and others are a combination of both. So if you want red, colder temps will bring them out. If you wanter yellow orange and hotter temps and bright sun will do.

I live in a tropical country and yes we are blessed with full sun all through out the year, but my concern is sometimes the heat is just too intense sometimes like during summer .what do you think is more better : give my korean succulents natural light from the sun right after they arrive from shipping , or Simply use a growlight indoor for a couple of weeks before introducing them outside.. please help..thnx ..how do you do yours when the arrive... your response will be much appreciated..

    • @ThangPlants

      well most places that has intense sun use shades to shade 50% of the light. So maybe invest in plants shades for outside so they don't burn out
