Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. Just want to say thank you for your support on my channel. I appreciate it so much. If you have questions, suggestions, or anything to say, feel free to comment. I will try to reply to your comments. Thank you again, and have a nice day.
Hey, you should add Mammilarias, Peruvian Apple Cacti, some types of Ferocactus and some types of Gymnocalycium to your collection! They have no thorns Some cactuses have thorns but they're not harmful and theu are Bunny Ear Cacti, some types of Opuntia, some types of Echinopsis, and others
Hi 👋🏻 I have Mamillarias, Ferocactus, and Gymnocalycium in my collection. The one in the video with lot of bloom is actually a Mammillaria schumanii. I’m also planning to buy some Echinopsis and Lobivia since their flowers are beautiful.
Hello, thank you for watching. 😊 That’s nice. Good luck with your plant hobby. If you have any questions or suggestion feel free to ask, I’ll be happy to help you.
Hi, thank you! I appreciate your time commenting on my videos. Thank you for your support always. 😊 Unfortunately, I don’t have since I only have 1. It’s a Haworthiopsis fasciata which is my first succulent. It has been with me since 2018. But I’m planning to buy Haworthia in the future. They look amazing. If ever I’ll start collecting, I’ll surely make a video about it.
Hi thanks for the video . I appreciate it . I have a question :ICL osmocote contains same amounts of NPK. I thought you mentioned that the N should be lower ?
Hello, Thank you for noticing, sorry for the confusion. I should have use “lower or same amount with Phosphorus, Potassium”. I was actually pertaining to soluble fertilizer with high Nitrogen like Peter’s Professional Hi Nitro (30-10-10 / 21-7-7). Anyway, as much as possible you want to use fertilizer with lower nitrogen. But most general purpose fertilizer available in the market are tailored to leafy plants. The closest general purpose fertilizer you can use for cactus are fertilizer which have the equal amount of NPK (14-14-14 or 20-20-20). If you’re planing to use this, you must dilute or use a weaker concentration (use half or a quarter of the recommended amount). In the case of ICL Osmocote, it’s a slow / controlled-release fertilizer. The nutrients are slowly released so it is perfectly safe for cactus and all plants. You don’t have to worry about burn or root damage.
Awesome video! Thanks. Bit confused as to why your "blossom fertilizer" has high Phosphorus (P) though (9-45-15). Its Potassium (K) that supports flowering. Phosphorus is for roots.
Hi 👋🏻 Thank you for watching 😊 There's often confusion between phosphorus and potassium and their roles in flowering. In reality, both nutrients are essential for optimal flower development. Phosphorus plays the critical role in stimulating the formation of flower buds and supporting their development. It is involved in energy transfer and storage, as well as in the synthesis of nucleic acids, proteins, and ATP, which are all crucial for flower formation. Additionally, phosphorus promotes strong root growth and nutrient uptake, which ultimately contributes to healthy flower development. On the otherhand, potassium serves as an all-around nutrient, which means it also aids and improves the quality of the flowers that have already been produced. If you’re going to check all “blooming fertilizer”, they all have higher amount of Phosphorus than Potassium. Since phosphorus is the one that is critical in flower formation. Potassium is more often associated with fruit development. I hope this clarifies the roles of phosphorus and potassium in flowering. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
Do u know any alternatives for the icl osmocote and azelai which can be purchased in the Netherlands? Or what exactly to look for in the ingredient list.
You can use any slow-release fertilizer with a balance NPK and have trace elements. When finding a fertilizer, choose a fertilizer with lower Nitrogen content.
@@theplantprinceph Balanced as in P and K are roughly the same number and nitrogen is lower then P and K. I found one with 10-30-20. Or are the P and K to high? Thanks!
@@TzillVirmalRS sorry for the confusion, what I meant in balance is the fertilizer has nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other trace elements. The one you found will works well. Just make sure to dilute it to half or quarter dilution if it is a soluble/foliar fertilizer.
Hello po, I’m from Pampanga. They grow all year long sa atin since wala tayong winter. Pero pinakamabilis ‘yung growth nila during summer or hotter months (March to June). During those months din sila nag-floflower non-stop.
THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL ONE ❤
Excellent information. Thank you.
Thank you! Glad you liked it.

@@theplantprinceph Oh Ok, Mammilarias are fluffy like Mammilaria Plumosa which i have, and Opuntias
@@covenant_gears Mammillaria plumosa are my favourite. I just love their fluffiness. They look like clouds or cotton candies.
@@theplantprinceph Same😁 and they're cute too!
Very good 👏🏻 tks for sharing
Thank you too!
Great video. Very informative and well put together
Glad you liked it! Thank you also for watching!
Thanks, it's a complete guide🎉
Glad you like it. Thank you for watching!
Excellent production mate. Can you do one on pest prevention?
Thank you!
Sure, I’ll add this to my list. Thank you for your suggestion.
Please do a vid on scale, mites, aphids and other pest or fungi prevention and treatment. 😊
Hello, I’m working on it already. It will be about preventing pest and fungi. It will probably be uploaded on the 3rd - 4th week of June.
Hi Sir, thanks for sharing care tips..am a neophyte collector of gymnos and astros

Your videos are so helpful! Do you have any advice on Haworthias(opsis)or Gasterias? Those are some of my favorite succulents ❤️

Hi can you please make a Caput-medusae care tips
Hi, unfortunately I don’t have any caput-medusae.
Sir saang region po kayo banda sa Pinas? Also what months po ang active growing periods po ng asterias and gymnos here po sa'tin?
Hello po, I’m from Pampanga. They grow all year long sa atin since wala tayong winter. Pero pinakamabilis ‘yung growth nila during summer or hotter months (March to June). During those months din sila nag-floflower non-stop.
Do u sell abroad? Canada.
Hi, sorry I don’t. I don’t have the required papers to export plants outside the Philippines.
