Duck tape works to get sticky out

finally good explanation on soil mixture :)

Hi! Thank you for this great 3 year old video. Can someone answer this question? If I have grow lights on my plants, do I keep these on in the winter? I was wondering about how or if the plants should go dormant? Thank you!

bagus lagi! cantik! hurrah!

Is a fertiliser necessary to add to this?

Something i like to do is toss mud from the river in with my chunky mixes. Just enough that the dilute mud coats each particle. The clay content stops it washing off, so long as you're not top watering. Provides nutrients au-naturale, and doesn't interfere with the good properties of the non soil materials. Works best in terrariums where the water cycle is even more gentle than bottom watering. I usually do this with a wide range of chunky materials. Akadama, calcined clay, crushed brick, aquasoil, bentonite, and other mineral clay gravels are about 1/3rd. I really recommend these as they help with leeching a lot as well. Rocky materials like leca, and lava rock are another 1/3rd. These are beneficial for keeping structure literally forever, and for root protection in later stages of decomposition. Then the last 3rd is a mix of organics that i select almost excluviely for how slow they break down. In other words, coco chips, sphagnum moss, charcoal, heartwood chips from really tough trees, and cork bark chips. While not technically immortal, this stuff will last years before any significant degradation is present, unlike things like pine bark, vermiculite, perlite, or castings. I optionally mix in leaf litter and softer wood/bark/twigs as food for bioactive animals for terrariums, in smaller amounts.

I noticed you have not posted in a while, life gets busy. Really enjoying your channel, thanks for all the info and inspiration. Hoping to make more black velvet from corms soon. Ox 🇨🇦

I Really love your content and presentations ! You are so informative and motivating.! However I found the constant mentioning of your age 30 was off putting. I see you as too smart to be that clueless about how your audience are of many different ages. If 30 is old what if you're 40-50 and beyond?😳😳😳.

What great information. Thank you so much!

8 and u doing fukosima mmm dont lie love take care i mean it

You mix your perlite, sand and soil, right you’re not just putting the pearlite and sand on the top??

Great tips however I don't agree with watering a new propagated cactus as it will encourage rotting i will watter only if i see roots

Thank you for your video. It’s still helping people 3 years later. Sadly I killed my Cuddly Cactus when I brought it inside for the winter and apparently watered it too much in lower light. 😢 I miss it.

A long time ago I worked at a gift shop. On the last day before the shop closed for good, right before it closed at night, I got a call from an angry woman. She said she had bought a cactus from there a few years prior, but she thought it was a fake cactus. She never watered it so it died. She kept complaining and wanting a refund, wouldn't let me get off the phone. I explained to her that as far as I knew we never sold cactus, real or fake, but she was a real Karen, kinda thick headed I suppose.

I don’t know angels love cacti. ❤

I’ve been looking for this exact video topic - so glad I found you! ;-)

Best to wear gloves when handling bunny ear cactus else the mini spikes will stuck on your skin and might cause irritation for awhile

I love in Hawaii, there's no choice but to get sun. And rain sometimes.

Ive been pricked so many times over the years! My barrel cactus left some pointers in my fingers without me even knowing until my fingers get red and irritated. Lol

Loved this video, I think I need to go plant shopping now. Thank you 🌿

I want to heat bend a PVC pipe into a loop the size of the bottom of my pot and then have the rest of the pole go straight up. That way the soil really anchors the pipe and makes the pole more stable.

Hello you cant whact and my plant cannel from România www.youtube.com/@cristinaalionte5877

OMYGOD I must show your video to my Mom!! She constantly overwaters her plants no matter how many times I tell her to please stop overwatering them because then, I have to turn around and rescue them which trust, I don't mind at all!! But it amazes me that she just can't understand why her plants start turning yellow or die lol!!❤

Just found your video in my feed and LOVE the BEAUTIFUL plant space in your intro!! And thank you for sharing, I could definitely use this mix for my Anthuriums and Orchids!!❤️😊🙏

سلام فوقالعاده خوب متشکرم

Your video is so clear and informative. And thank you for sourcing products that are available in Canada.

Tiny leaves

Love it, want it😎

Hi,please tell me where you found the orchid in front insid the terranium , I love it , i want it, Iam in Canada , where can i get that orchid ? the sianensis?

Thank you for this great video. You mentioned if the humidity is Canadian and lower, you mix your "chunky mix" with "soil", 1:1. Could you explain why? I am in Canada and humidity is very low here.

Come back!

I’ve missed you. Where have you been hiding ..?

Hi! I am a beginner to the Houseplants and learning about soil mix. you said if I want to add some soil into the mix for the living room plants but all I find in the garden store is multipurpose compost, can I use that instead of plant soil?

Great video. Very thankful when I saw Canadian flag on your post. Good I learned good stuff to spray again with neem oil every week since I just got my plants in and sprayed them. So far so good but can you just how many times should I spray them with neem oil solution to kill all those larva sitting in my soil from when they were left outside in the summer. Thanks 😊💚

Hope you’re doing ok, we miss you!

Pretty stuff!

I also bought a planting mat last month but forgot to use your link :( but thank you for your wonderful suggestions. I am ready to step up my plant game

just bought the magnifying glasses using your link :) thanks! and happy to support you

Pretty!

What soil do you use for house plants? I feel like most are just peat moss when you look at the ingredients. Unless you’re getting garden soil for indoor plants.

But predator bugs wont kill off there food source completely

New subscriber here....Cacticollector and lover, too.thanks for the care tips❤

What is the big cactus called?

Thank you for putting US links in too!
