I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
Hi Liz, thanks again for the informative video, most of my collection go into terracotta pots but I’m also a sucker for cute ceramic pots so my Korean succulents pretty much go into cute ceramic pots but unglazed inside. I only use one soil mix which is gritty made primarily of 70% inorganic mix,(Kanuma, akadama, ) and 30% organic like premium cactus soil mix with some worm casting added. All my succs goes into gritty mix except some miniature ones that goes into cococoir mix from Fat Plants. I’m hoping I will get mine to grow beautiful ones like yours. Because my collection is new, I put all of them in my greenhouse this winter with a space heater on most of the time. Tonight will be very cold here with temps on the low 10’s ( coldest Feb temp in 70 years) I hope my plants will be okay. Regards
Such an enjoyable video, as always. Always a good learning experience!! Many thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. You are greatly appreciated!! Take care and stay well.
Thank you for this information about the difference between types of pots,as I have been dwelling on this problem for a while, which way I should go, as I am new to this.
Yay, you responded to my request about pots! Thank you so much, Liz🥰😘 I am those who is interested to learn😍 I have lots of cement pots, because they are cheap😄
@@siewleanchoong8625 Yes it helps but the heat and the cold makes it crack. You'll need to seal it to make it last longer. I have a couple with just painted that are now starting to crack.
Hi Liz. I’m a top fan. You inspired me to start my tiny success garden in my balcony in Queensland . Question: Do you drill all your pots? I have gorgeous ceramic pots but often they come without draining. I don’t have a drill so I’m afraid to break them and I do t want the successful to die. Any recommendations? Thanks Liz! Blessings
Yes I do drill holes on all my pots. Below is a video that might give you the confidence. Good luck and Happy Drilling. HOW TO DRILL HOLES IN POTS - th-cam.com/video/cikNYvinzt8/w-d-xo.html
Motion sensors are not suitable for our areas as there are too many people walking their kids and dogs. The best deterrent I find is not putting anymore succulents out front that can be seen.
Hi Ms. Liz, i love all your succulent they are all beautiful and amazing. How i wished i could have one. Nice vlog, very informative. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on taking care of those plants. God bless you and your family, keep safe always♥️ I'm watching from Sta. Rosa City, Laguna!!!
So much helpful information Liz(; That’s a shame that people are stealing your plants from your front yard/: I have a lot of pots in my front yard because of the nice eastern exposure, and I worry about the same, but so far all are accounted for🤞
A couple of my friends had it worst. One had a 6 ft. statue taken from the front of her house, another had large pots with succulents gone at night but they came back the next day in the middle of the day with a "forklift" to get the other bigger pot....LOL

I swear I drool every time I watch your videos! Gorgeous plants. I am in the USA and we get very cold snowy winters so mine are all grown indoors with plant grow lights. I would love to try and transition them to outdoor pots for spring thru fall. Any suggestions for doing this without killing them? Mine are in terra cotta and ceramic pots. Lots of echeveria, some haworthia, some sedum, bear paw, chocolate soldiers.
May I suggest acclimatizing them. I have a few videos about this topic. One of them is this video below. How to ACCLIMATIZE SUCCULENTS in Tropical WET SEASON & WINTER Edition - th-cam.com/video/vZ5ENQ9VwEA/w-d-xo.html
Hello, thank you for the information. I’ve been reading different opinions/ways, regarding whether or not it’s okay to add Lava Rocks to the Pot before adding the potting Soil (specifically for Succulents). Can you please advise in your opinion if it’s a good idea or not to add Lava Rocks or any other Stones/Rocks to the planter prior to adding Succulent Soil? Thank you so much. J. Garcia
I find that adding rocks to the bottom of the pot promotes air circulation and also stabilizes the pot. This also stops the mesh from moving about exposing the hole and also prevents the soil from getting wash off.
I've tried using them and they tend to clog up. Best to wash them thoroughly to get rid of the mud if using into the soil mix. Otherwise, it's perfect for top dressing after a wash.
Hi Liz, love you beautiful succulents! After you propagate the plants do you sell them? If so I would like to know where I can buy your baby succulents
I have a hanging rounded container that is open at both ends(ceramic) and the bottom of the container has a wire in a plus + form. Any recommendations? Can’t find any videos. I was thinking maybe a jellyfish style with succulents? Have seen photos with petunias and various vines coming out of the center but no succulents done that way.
I haven't done it as well but if I were to make one... I would probably put hessian on top of the + wire. Then put moss to protect the soil consisting of Coconut Coir with added fertilizer. Plant succulents on top and also insert succulents in the bottom tied onto the + wire. Will try to do a video in the future. Good luck.
Hey Liz I don't even take a single chance to miss even a single line information from your video. Can i request u to make a video on how to keep Rodents and stray cats away from once garden.
That's difficult as I don't have none. I have a blue tongue lizard wandering freely which I thought was a rodent before. The neighbors cat keeps knocking my succulents on the fence. Maybe I should get a new neighbor with no pets.😅🤣
Being a big fan of bonsai as I am there is a trick to keeping the really small trees happy and healthy in their smaller pots and what i've seen them do is place the pot on top of a bigger pot and partially burry the base of the pot with soil. What this does is increases the surface soil area and allows for wicking moisture and keeping the plants roots cooler. I'm not an expert though so i'm not sure how what may effect the integrity of the roots if there are heavy rains.
I use to grow bonsai and have to give them up when I started going away for long time. Succulents can't be treated the same as standard Bonsais as they require a lot less watering but whatever I've learned before now I apply to succulents. Thanks for watching.
My Master succulent soil mix is my going away soil mix. With the babies....it depends on the season, the plant, location, watering availability, pot size and type, etc. But as a general soil mix when they rooted....I either use plain coconut coir or into my Master succulent soil mix. Thanks for watching.
I have got mostly terracotta pots & last few days the succulent that are in side have gone very soft & soggy like they very wet but they are not. I do have heating on would this do the problem ? I also tried small white stones on top of soil could that be the problem ?
Soggy or soft leaves is usually a sign that the plants are dehydrated. When this happens, I usually give the whole pot a good soaking until they firm up to rehydrate them. Hope the video below helps. Cheers How To Water Dehydrated Succulents - th-cam.com/video/xTRVpprSsL8/w-d-xo.html
Great information! I want the baby necklace succulent, so I'm going to buy from nursery in 4in plastic. What is the best pot for this plant terra cotta or ceramic? Deep or shallow?
I think I'll wait til spring weather, which is April. I just found the cutest ceramic pot at thrift shop..but it don't have holes 😪.. I gotta get a drill.
I found the cutest ceramic pot at a thrift store... its shaped like a handbag...omg! I'm going to get a hole drill in in this for my baby necklace succulent!!
Hi Liz, thank you for the update. Some succulents came in mail with bare roots have a thick long root like a baby carrot. I cannot find a long small pot anywhere. Do you think I can chop it to make it fit in a shorter pot? otherwise I have to put it in a large pot...I heard I can trim hairy roots to fit in a pot but not sure with the thick long one.
You can coil them to make them fit like I did in my latest video "The owl and butterfly hearts arrangement." Or you can get a tall vase(with holes) to put it in as it look's like a plant that will require a tall pot if it has a long carrot like roots.
Last year during winter when frost hit, most of my succulents in clay pots died or suffered heavy damage whereas those in plastic pots were unscathed☹️
Hi LizK, I'm really new here at your channel. I'm wondering and want to buy some succulents, did you sell them online? Gotta get bored with lockdown👌🏻 😅

thankyou for showing examples of this, all of your videos are so useful and interesting :) if you dont mind can you let me know the name of the orange and purple plant at 18:27 ? Id love to own one but maybe its rare
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK , thanks so much! I bought crushed granite, may I just ask, Why do I need to wash it? Sorry, I don’t have any clue. Pero pansin ko lang, parang maputik sya, it that the reason why I need to wash it?
Hey Lizk How are you dear. I wonder what will happen with succulents if we use those Rice washed water or banana peals water as fertilizer. We use them on other vegetable gardens n it seems those fertilizer helps the plants. I have very very limited succulent collection so im afraid to do experiments with them. Have you ever tried such with succulents ?
I have used my rice water on my edible plants before but when it comes to banana peel, not too sure about that as most of them are sprayed with pesticide. Doesn't matter with succulents but they do attract gnats. I much prefer using Seamungus as it's quite inexpensive, easy to use and my succulents are loving it.
I have a couple of pots with no hole and kept away from the rain so I can control the watering and the plants seems to be okay. They can survive with no holes but not advisable.
Just let it callous off for a couple of hours then put it in your soil but don't water it for at least a week or two depending on the type of succulent.
Got a few videos on succulent propagation. May I suggest taking a look on my Propagation Playlist and choose which topic/video you're interested in. Cheers SUCCULENT PROPAGATION - th-cam.com/play/PLrXnzlHRKzosypA455gOHrCvauYiDqRma.html
I have one pretty pot and I paid $165 for it LOL and as a matter of fact it's empty 🤣🤣🤣 every morning I go in my plant room and I try to figure out what plant I want to put in it but none have jumped out at me yet not to mention it does not have a drainage hole and I'm not going to put one in it because I don't want to risk damaging it. But I use all terracotta on my mature plants and plastic on my nursery plants so I'm happy to see I'm doing something right LOL

What is that white plant in the terra cotta? Omg... so big and beautiful!!
Great information! I want the baby necklace succulent, so I'm going to buy from nursery in 4in plastic. What is the best pot for this plant terra cotta or ceramic? Deep or shallow?
Echeveria Cante. They still get much bigger than that.
Depends what you want them to grow fast and thick(terracotta), or pretty and small/compact(ceramic). Crassula requires a lot of soil area.
I think I'll wait til spring weather, which is April. I just found the cutest ceramic pot at thrift shop..but it don't have holes 😪.. I gotta get a drill.

You can coil them to make them fit like I did in my latest video "The owl and butterfly hearts arrangement." Or you can get a tall vase(with holes) to put it in as it look's like a plant that will require a tall pot if it has a long carrot like roots.
so you do sell plants also great how do you go about getting some from you and do you only sell in your country?
At the moment, I don't sell at all. When I do, I can only sell within Australia. Thanks for watching.
Hi Liz. Thanks for all your tips. I live in Sydney i just wonder how can I buy your plants pls
I'm not selling at the moment since I'm still propagating and have only enough to go into my garden. Maybe next year. Thanks for watching.
I had some cool ones aswell. Will happy to swap with you if you are interested

Hi Liz! Where do you buy your granite from? Thank you.
I get it from a friends property.
Last year during winter when frost hit, most of my succulents in clay pots died or suffered heavy damage whereas those in plastic pots were unscathed☹️
Good to know. Thanks for sharing.👍🥰
Hi LizK, I'm really new here at your channel. I'm wondering and want to buy some succulents, did you sell them online? Gotta get bored with lockdown👌🏻 😅
I'm growing them for my huge garden. Will eventually sell some in the future but don't have enough ATM. Thanks for watching.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Thanks for replying. I live in SA, when you're available for them, please let me know. Thanks again.

Hello po Jaylleen, I'm glad nag enjoy po kayo sa aking mga succulents. Happy hearts day po.
thankyou for showing examples of this, all of your videos are so useful and interesting :) if you dont mind can you let me know the name of the orange and purple plant at 18:27 ? Id love to own one but maybe its rare
Its a very common plant called Echeveria Black Prince. They don't look like that when they're still young. That plant is over two years old.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK ah cool thanks, I didnt realise they could change with maturity, I bought one yesterday already :)
Just asking what stones u use for top
I use decomposed granite also known as Maifan Stone.
Liz, the crushed granite can be used as well?
Yes you can but you have to sieve it and them wash it first and dry before using.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK , thanks so much! I bought crushed granite, may I just ask, Why do I need to wash it? Sorry, I don’t have any clue. Pero pansin ko lang, parang maputik sya, it that the reason why I need to wash it?
@@ortenciamcilhaney2604 They are muddier than my original decomposed granite.
👍super liz
Thank you very much.
Do all the pots have drain holes?
Yes they do.
Hey Lizk How are you dear. I wonder what will happen with succulents if we use those Rice washed water or banana peals water as fertilizer. We use them on other vegetable gardens n it seems those fertilizer helps the plants. I have very very limited succulent collection so im afraid to do experiments with them. Have you ever tried such with succulents ?
I have used my rice water on my edible plants before but when it comes to banana peel, not too sure about that as most of them are sprayed with pesticide. Doesn't matter with succulents but they do attract gnats. I much prefer using Seamungus as it's quite inexpensive, easy to use and my succulents are loving it.
Your succulents are out in the open? Any problem with rain? I live in Asia Pacific?
With the right soil mix, they can handle full sun, rain, hail and frost.
Wow
Do you always have to have a drain hole on all the pots?
I have a couple of pots with no hole and kept away from the rain so I can control the watering and the plants seems to be okay. They can survive with no holes but not advisable.
First again! Hi Liz!
Congrats Rosemarie.🥳
If you pull a baby away from the mother plant and it has its own roots, does it have to dry out before repotting?
Just let it callous off for a couple of hours then put it in your soil but don't water it for at least a week or two depending on the type of succulent.
How can I order a plant from you, I’m here in the Philippines starting to grow succulent and other plants

I have one pretty pot and I paid $165 for it LOL and as a matter of fact it's empty 🤣🤣🤣 every morning I go in my plant room and I try to figure out what plant I want to put in it but none have jumped out at me yet not to mention it does not have a drainage hole and I'm not going to put one in it because I don't want to risk damaging it. But I use all terracotta on my mature plants and plastic on my nursery plants so I'm happy to see I'm doing something right LOL
I have such pot with no hole and it's got Echeveria glauca and crassulas growing happily for the past couple of years.
Can I buy this product
I don't sell ATM. Thanks for watching.

How to propagate socculents
Please take a look at my many videos on my channel on how to propagate succulents.
I grow mine in plastic pots. Even terra cotta is expensive.
They have terracotta pot at 99 cents store about 6 inch.
Send me some of your awesome soul mix 😁
🤩🤩🤩💖💖
I am so sorry that people are stealing the plants from your front gardens.
Nothing I can do about that but I'll still plant some but just not what I was planning to do before.
