that split rock made me smile,.. i have one that is starting to split, i didn't know that it will flower, now i have my eye on my split rock. thank you !
I’m so excited for you! It will be such an awesome experience. It’s exciting to know that the color of the flower could be yellow or another color like orange. It is such a gift to see them flower. Thank you so much for sharing your story with everyone. I really appreciate it! My apologies for the very late response. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Split rocks are not Lithops so they don’t split the same way. They can split any time. You also water like normal succulents, when dry. There’s a good FB group with all sorts of great info, but they are def nit Lithops. Lithops are living stones.
Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
Me too!! I'm a newbie succulent lover and I watch so many videos. It is very confusing because so many say to do different things. But she is obviously great at caring for them. I will be taking her lessons to heart!
It’s nice to see some interaction here. Thank you so much for the comments, Everyone! Huge apologies for the very late response. Wishing you the greatest of health, the biggest of blessings and the purest of love! ❤️💰
Hi! Thank you so much for this comment. It made all the work that I’ve put in this video so worthwhile. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about two to three months behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much again for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫 Happy Holidays!
I do have a video about potting mixes, but lately I have started using regular garden soil and I have had great success with them. Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
"Energy Flows Where Energy Goes" Thats such an important message. So true! :) I tend to underwater my succulents and a small amount of leaf drop is soooo much better than over watering. When im too on top of my watering my succulents do worse than when I am more relaxed about it. Its always better to wait a day and see then chance and water too soon. :) Great Video. :)
Thank you for supporting my channel, Denise! I really appreciate every little comment. 😃❤️So long comments like your are bonuses. Sending love and luck your way! 💕💕💕😊
I just got into succulents about a year ago. I joined a succulent lovers club and also read and watch videos on caring for them. My club members all seem to follow the same path but I get a lot of conflicting information online. You just answered some of my questions that I haven’t found a straight answer to before. I like that you give thorough advice as you show us what you’re doing. You just answered why you shouldn’t repot new succulents as soon as you get them and either pot dry succulents in wet soil or wet succulents in dry soil and never water them before 8 days to 2 weeks. I’ve asked others before about repotting plants I receive from online sites. I don’t have any local nurseries here. A lot of the ones I receive are blooming and/or have pups. I’ve had answers such as go ahead and repot them or at the other end not to disturb them then. That’s what I thought and you confirmed that. I have a lot of questions but one I really need to know now, because I’m potting some that I got a couple of weeks ago and repotting ones that have seriously outgrown their original small pots. I see that you don’t remove all of the soil on the roots when potting new plants. I’ve mostly been told to remove as much of the soil as possible even to washing the roots. But I’ve seen growers who think that as long as the soil is not too wet or doesn’t look too good, it’s ok to leave some or all of the soil on the roots that they’ve been growing in. I see some that come in soil that looks good and they’ve obviously been thriving in so I feel like I should leave their soil on and pot the plants with their soil into new soil that’s recommended but also resembles what their original soil is. I learned to use a gritty soil mix with my cacti and my succulents that are mostly Crassula, Haworthia, Gasteria and ice plants. I don’t do well with thin leafed succulents like a lot of Echeveria. I’m glad to have you show you’re advice in real time. Thank you!
Hello Laureen, thank you so much for the long messages! I really appreciate them. I love all the details. I do think you’re on the right track with everything. It’s quite true that most of it just takes some common sense and a little digging here and there. That’s referring to info that’s available online. I don’t suggest to strip all the soil off the roots or even wash them all off. I feel like it’s too much unnecessary work. I have always left some soil and my plants have been doing fine. I guess, people would say to remove all the old soil with the idea that those soil have already been stripped of all nutrients which could also be true, but then, as long as there’s more newer, fresher soil around it, I don’t think there would really be a problem. The plant can always grow more roots so that it can access the more fertile soil. So stripping away ALL the old soil is just overkill. I honestly think either way works. It just depends on how much work one is willing to put in. Thank you for the message. My apologies for the late response. I’ve been so busy. 😅 Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Not at all, Molly! It’s such a good thing to hear that you appreciate nature this much. Happiness is learning to appreciate the simple things in life. These things are priceless. Thank you so much for the comment. I greatly appreciate it. More blessings to you! Stay healthy and happy always! 🙏❤️💫
My niece was staying with me last summer. I told her I wanted some car us. She picked out some healthy ones. Those are doing fine. I went to my grocery and they had different succulents that were mistreated. I bought all I could carry. I bought all them home, repotted them and do. I realize I did everythin wrong after watching your video.but I did wAter them because they had been neglected. I realize now They are doing okay. I am happy to have found your video. I hope pI do a lot better now and I can return and watch your video again.
Hi Janice! I hope all of your succulents are healthy! Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries.

"Energy flows where attention goes" Such an informative video! Excellent! Thank you for taking time to share with the internet. Very good information, :)
That is so sweet, John or John’s wife! (Sometimes it’s the wife who is using the account) 😁 You are very welcome, but I think I should be the one who is expressing gratitude. I really appreciate comments like these. 🙏🌈 Thank you so much for leaving this comment. It’s words like these that inspire me so much! ❤️🌈🙏
Great job with keeping your succulents happy and healthy! I’m so happy that you are doing such an awesome work! Thank you for sharing your story! As long as they are happy, you’re all good! 😊 Thank you again! I really appreciate it! ❤️☺️🌈
I’ve been into reptiles a lot and recently bought a bearded dragon! But I’ve been into succulents a lot and I’m planning on buying one soon! Doing as much research as possible
Wow! A bearded dragon! 😁 That’s very interesting! 👍 You are so on the right track with doing research. That’s what I did when I was starting. It helps a lot for zero casualty.😃 It’s a really fun hobby. As they say, “it’s cheaper than therapy”, which is so true. Happy Planting, Diana. I’m excited to hear about your first purchase. 🤩 Thank you so much for leaving a comment. It’s really nice to hear what people have to say. I really appreciate it. 🙏🌈
Split Rocks are super cute. I find it so adorable that their bloom opens and closes every day. Thank you for this comment. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
Very helpful video, thank you. This answered all the questions I had. I'm in South Wales, UK. I repotted all my succulents yesterday in John Innes Number 1 compost. The compost was slightly damp and my instinct was not to water. All the succulents were potted in garden soil before, outdoors and struggling. I have a small conservatory so I've put them in there now. I was careful not to compact the new compost too much. Fingers crossed! Thank you again. Great saying that too
Hi John! UK is one of the best places to grow succulents. You guys out there barely need to water your succulents. They are also not likely to suffer sunburn out there. You were on the right track not to water them after replanting. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries. I can’t believe I’m 1 year behind now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I’ve been buying succulents for years and not doing so well with them. I recently trimmed back my aunt’s long, hanging, overgrown jade plant. I watch nearly every youtube video on propagating, pruning and growing jade plants and everyone said different things. I came across your propagating experiment video, and I loved it!! I shared it with my aunt, who can now better propagate her jade leaves and trimmings. I also shared 2 more of your videos on watering and propagating clippings. GREAT GREAT videos. I have learned more from 4 of your videos than I have from dozens of others on youtube. I can’t wait to propagate and share my jade trimmings and ghost plant!
Wow! Thank you so much! This is such an awesome comment. It’s a real honor and privilege to have received this kind of comment. It is always so nice to hear that my videos are helping so many people. Thank you so much again! I really appreciate it! Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies too for the very late response.
I stumble at your channel , I want to start planting and collecting succulents and you explained alot of things about succulent soo soo informative specially for me who are newbies with planting succulents ,This is the first time i see that stone kind succulent blooms flowers ,,gbu
Hi! Welcome to the world of Succulents. This hobby is so much fun. I’m so glad you decided to get into it. Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it! Blessings to you! Happy Planting! ❤️☺️🌈
Awww...thank you. I love cute tiny things and miniatures, that’s why I totally love little garden tools. I’m glad you liked it! Succulents and tiny tools is such an adorable combination. 😊Thank you so much for leaving this comment. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈
Hi there, Josie! My apologies for responding too late! I'm not sure how I didn't see the notification for this comment. I had to filter through my messages to find it. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it! More blessings to you! ❤🙏🌈
I didnt know I shouldnt water while they're blooming. Thank u for that tip. I have several succulents that are blooming right now even though I really dont have that many in my collections yet. They are really quite inspirational.
If they are planted directly in the ground, they don’t seem to mind. My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this message. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to reply to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful. So instead of trying to do that (‘cause now, I’m a full year behind) I’ll start responding from newest to oldest. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Success in repotting rely on the information that I shared in this video. I hope this helps a lot in preventing deaths in most newly repotted succulents, especially the newly purchased ones. 😀
Hi Sharon, I guess it depends. 😁 Which one caught your fancy? I had to say it depends ‘cause I have so many varieties already.😃 In fact, I had to get rid of some unwanted ones. (Sickly ones that are prone to mealy bugs) I didn’t have any problem with mealy bugs in San Bruno, but here in Brentwood, it was quite a challenge. 😅🤣😆
I love growing all different kinds of succulents, veggies and houseplants. Succulents are my favorite because they require very little care. Thanks for sharing your tips. I'm hoping to help as many people as I can reconnect with nature and to start a little collection of Their Own! Whether it's growing succulents, house plants or your own produce like I am, it's really nice to be one with nature and so satisfying too see your plants grow especially when they are producing food!
So true, Stacey! I like your goals. That’s a really great goal. I’ll check your channel! Thank you for leaving this comment. I’m always happy to help. 😃❤️🙏🌈
Hi Stacey, great information on your videos. I found some opportunities for improvement so that you’ll get more views. You can also make your own research ‘cause simply uploading a video on TH-cam will not ensure views and watch time. Feel free to send me a direct message on instagram if you have questions on how to get more traction. I’m more than happy to help. 😃🙏🌈
@@SucculentFame thank you for the great information!! I will be messaging you on Instagram soon. Lol. I also wanted to thank you for checking out my channel!
You’re welcome, Stacey. I offered to help with your channel ‘cause I think you have good information to share. It just needs some fine tuning. 😃 As I’ve said, you can also make your own research by watching youtube influencers on how to improve your craft and get more views. 😃
Thank you so much!! I love finding channels like yours in the gardening community because my #1 goal is to be able to continue helping as many people as I can come together and become reconnected with nature 😊 Thanks and happy gardening! I do appreciate the kind words!
Very Nice Sheila...I am a Learnee/Beginner on having succulents and cacti . i just started becoming deeply involved with succulents the beginning of these year. Now it's June and i am addicted ha ha ha. Thank you again for your info. God Bless

I wish I would have found this video sooner! I repotted a succulent from a nursery pot into a more secure one and immediately watered it afterward. I think it was pretty thirsty but I hope I didn't hurt the roots anymore than I already had. It was pretty attached to it's nursery pot and I had to cut the pot away even! Anywho, great video! Will tune into more as I love succulents too! ❤
I hope your succulent will pull through. Please push back the next watering schedule. I think it will be fine. Thank you so much for sharing that. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈

First time to see your video. Am your new subscriber. I am starting to propagate my neighbor's discarded succulent. I think she lost interest on her plant when it almost dried out. I will try to see all your videos and hope to be succesful in this. My daughter bought a violets plant and will try to propagate them also. Thanks and God bless you. Be safe.

Thank you, Janie! 😃Yes, it’s a long way to go for me. I think I need about 50 pots more than what is shown on the video. 😁 Best of luck with repotting! It’s fun time for succulents ‘cause summer is almost over, which means succulents are gonna be happier! 😃 i love summer, as a person though hahaha 😃 Thanks again for leaving a comment! 🙏🌈

Hi! There has been white mold on my plants, I cut off the areas that are infected and was wondering if I should repot the soil. I’ve had these plants for about 4 months
Hi Sena, it is okay to leave them in the same soil, but if you feel like the soil has already been depleted of nutrients and if not changing out the soil will keep you worrying about your plant, it is best to use new soil. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries. I can’t believe I’m 9 months behind now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the inquiry. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Yes, that's so true, a little over a year and about 600 bucks worth of cuttings (maybe even more 😅) and a big move to another city that's totally way warmer than the San Francisco area and I have more succulents than I can handle. 😅 hahaha It has been the best journey ever. Learning everything is bitter sweet. And indeed, experience is the best teacher. Thank you so much for dropping by and leaving a comment. 😀😊
Succulent Fame : You’re welcome! And wow 600 bucks! ang laki non a! ... you have a great return on your investments, Happiness and experience, plus hardwork. Thank you for sharing your passion, and great tips.

Thanka for the video! I just bought a split rock that had already bloomed and has the stalk left. Should i cut that or just leave it to wither? I watered it the second day i got it. I was a little worried but i know they just sit there in the stores unattended and needy. Im just impatiently counting the days till i can repot it! I figure I'll give it a couple weeks to recover from moving, blooming, watering.
Hello! Congratulations on having flowers on your split rock. Just let the stalk wither. I normally just leave mine until it’s very withered. Withered and dried stalks are easier to pluck. There shouldn’t be any resistance at all. Thank you for the comment. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫

Hi Trevor, thank you so much as always! 😀 One silly question...are you Trevor or Trevor's wife? I have been refraining from addressing you by your first name, 'cause some wives would use their husband's account. 😀 Just making sure that I'm addressing you properly. You have been supporting my channel with your comments. The very least that I can do is address you properly. Thanks so much again! 😊
@@SucculentFame hi Sheila, you are so polite with what you asked me! I'm Trevor, it's me who is watching your videos; I love them 'cause you're always so bright and happy! Thanks 😃 🌵
Thank you so much again for all the support, Trevor! I really hope the happiness, positivity and enthusiasm rubs off on people all the time when they watch my videos. Have a wonderful weekend! 😁
Great tips! Thank you so much for sharing. I think I kind of been doing this because when ever I get a new succulent I'm too lazy to repot them, so I end up leaving them in their nursery containers for a while and just water them in their original home. I do keep them in the area that they will be living and eventually I end up repotting them. So I guess I'll continue to do this, haha ;)
lisett_WonderWoman hahaha That worked great then. 😃😆 This is especially true for Lithops and mesembs. Especially because most cactus soil mix are always damp. 😅 Thank you so much for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it. 😃💕🌈

Hi! You certainly could. Just be careful not to water them right after repotting. Let them settle in first before watering. You could also postpone repotting until their properly acclimated to their new space. My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this, too. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to respond to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful.

Hi Mickie, yes, it is. It makes regular soil more fast draining. Thank you so much for asking your question. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
I recently got into succulents and I repotted some over the weekend and watered them straight after. Tomorrow (its nighttime right now in Australia) I’ll repot all and some new ones into dry cactus mix I bought tonight. Is this the right thing to do? Thank you, I loved your video 😊
Hi! Are they in a thirsty state before you transplanted them? If they are not, I think it is risky to water them immediately after repottjng. They are quite different from regular plants. Succulent Cuttings can be placed in water within the same day, but for some reason, they are more likely to die when introduced to wet soil, unless they are in a thirsty state prior to repotting. My apologies that you might have to do it all over again, especially if it’s not too warm out there. It’s summer here in the US, going into fall. I think it’s the exact opposite out there. Thank you for asking your question. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies, too for the very late response.
"Energy flows where attention goes" is a great one but it's almost impossible to not pay attention to the bad things since they are showing themselves in front. Obstacles are not transparent.
Unfavorable situations will always be there. Like people, situations can never be perfect. 😃 We just need to divert our attentions to the things that we are still supposed to be thankful for. 🙏 ...little things like how lucky we are that we are still alive. When we start to focus on the small things that make us still feel a little fortunate, it multiplies...meaning we will receive more things that we can be grateful for. 😃 No matter how dire a situation is, you can still find something positive in it. I see unfavorable situations as an opportunity to show how what we got inside...like how tough we can be when the going gets rough. 🙏🌈
Thanks for sharing this. Always heard to repot just before the summer. Sounds like you have covered all basis for this to be done year round! Going to follow your detailed timelines
You’re welcome! It’s always best done before summer, but it can still work, as long as they are placed in a cool area. Thank you for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it. So true, Thomas! I’m so glad you have found a way to make sense of how frequent watering doesn’t always equate to loving them.

I absolutely LOVE your channel! So much so that I subscribed and confidently started my own little succulent garden. VERRRRY little. Where did you find all of your white little planters!? I love how sleek and minimalist it all looks.
Hi! Thank you so much for subscribing! I bought them from Amazon. I probably have a link in the description. Are you in the US? I’m getting rid of some of my white planters, ‘cause I’m transferring my succulents and using them in a bigger project, so I no longer need most of my white pots. I can sell them to you at more than half the price. How’s does that sound? Please send me a direct message on Instagram if you’re interested. I go by the same name. Thank you so much for asking. I really appreciate it. More blessings your way! ❤️🙏🌈

Most growers would suggest cactus soil mix for most succulents. If you are planting them in the ground, any soil is good enough. I have been planting in regular soil in the ground and they are thriving. Proper watering interval is more important. I highly suggest cactus soil mix for Lithops. Thank you so much for the question. I really appreciate it! Wishing you more blessings! ❤🙏🌠

Hi 👋🏼 Sheila! I absolutely had so much fun and learned so much from how you explained everything! Especially when you repot, think happy thoughts 💭 as they will be happy as well. 🤗😊. I love my babies! Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge!! I am a big fan now!

Thank you for the video. I currently have 6 pots of aloe vera that I split from 2 plants. Mind you I gave away 4 pots. I wish I had seen this video then, because I've never had so many succulents. Lol.
Hi Candice! That is such a nice selfless act to give away 4 pots when you had six. 😃 That is so sweet of you. I’m so sure you received more blessings when you gave those away. 🙏 Thank you for sharing this comment with us. I’m also working on giving away some succulents and stuff to people because of my 10,000 subs. It is always nice to give back. I really appreciate your comment. Thanks again. ❤️☺️🌈
I recently got some succulents and I’ve been watching videos to learn how to take care of them. I noticed in your video you were loosening up the roots before putting them in the pot. I didn’t do that when I transferred my succulents from the nursery pot into the pot they are in now, will they be okay or do I need to take them out and loosen the ball of dirt/roots and put them back in?
Hi Sierra, it’s okay. You didn’t have to. I was actually just removing some of the older soil. It is not a requirement. I just try to remove as much of the old soil as I could ‘cause the little guy probably has already used up most of the nutrient in it, ‘cause they’ve been in there for quite a bit. Thank you for asking this question. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Your information helps me a lot. One mistake I did was after repot I immediately watered them. But currently Malaysia have crazy heat Wave that the pot drys out by 3rd day. I put them at shade area never direct sun. Everyday checking the plant water status 😂 Can I know what plant was at 12.08 ? Thank you 🙏
Hi Melissa, it’s the Pleiospilos nelii “Split Rock”. Were you asking for the name of the plant at the very last part of the video? My apologies. I might be getting confused. The video is 12:08 minutes long. Were you asking for the plant at 12:08? Thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Hi Lucio! I have a video about different soil varieties. Here’s the link. th-cam.com/video/08AK2t929T8/w-d-xo.html Lately, I have also been planting them in the ground and they have grown so much nicer and easier to take care of, ‘cause I have a watering system, so I dont have to spend so much time watering them manually. Thank you so much for the question. I really appreciate it! My apologies for the very late response. 😅 Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Thanks for the very informative video! I just bought my first bear paw plant 10days ago and it has 5 big leaves with 2 tiny ones still growing but i want to change it into a nicer pot. Is it a good time to repot now? Or should it wait for it to grow more?
It never hurts to wait until they’re bigger. 😊 I love bear paws. Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
You’re welcome, mate! 😊 Again, huge apologies for the very late response. Thank you so much for the comments and for watching my videos. I really appreciate it. I responded to your other comment, too! Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
What size pot are using to repot the succulents in? I think they are the white ones at the 5:13 mark. Is there a size that's appropriate to use when repotting? Thanks for the video!
Hi there, Maggie! My apologies for the late response. I think those are the 2.5 inch pots. I have a link to those pots in the description. Sizes of pots is more of a personal preference, but do consider that if you want them to grow faster and bigger, choose pots that would be big enough for when they’re double their size. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for asking your question. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
You’re welcome, Tian! So true, Thomas! I’m so glad you have found a way to make sense of how frequent watering doesn’t always equate to loving them. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about two to three months behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much again for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫

Hello Jasmine, I placed a wire mesh so the soil wont fall through the base of the pot. It doesn’t keep all of the soil from falling through, but it does help. I just buy a piece of screen (the ones used on windows) and cut them in small pieces. Thank you for the question! My apologies for the late reply. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I'm just starting to grow a couple of succulents and your advice and tips are timely...i love the wisdom that goes with it too. I'm an avid fan now!!!
Hi! Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I’m looking to buy a new laptop ‘cause I’m not able to use my current one for editing. 😅 I’m also sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about a month behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the kind comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I need your help. I've got some succulent plants that a neighbor had left on her porch when she moved and they're dying and I've got no clue as to help them
Hi! I hope they’re still alive. Space out watering intervals and when it’s time to water, please give them a good soaking. This is the key. They need to experience a good dry spell, but when it’s time for them to drink, their leaves need to plump up. Thank you so much for the message. I really appreciate. More blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies for the very late response. 😅
Do not overwater them. Go to the hardware store garden section and buy some fertilizer that says for cacti or succulents. I use Schultz’s Instant Cactus Plus liquid plant food. Add a droplet to one quart of water. Other brands are “Cactus Juice” or “Algoflash for cactus”.
that split rock made me smile,.. i have one that is starting to split, i didn't know that it will flower, now i have my eye on my split rock. thank you !
I’m so excited for you! It will be such an awesome experience. It’s exciting to know that the color of the flower could be yellow or another color like orange. It is such a gift to see them flower. Thank you so much for sharing your story with everyone. I really appreciate it! My apologies for the very late response. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Split rocks are not Lithops so they don’t split the same way. They can split any time. You also water like normal succulents, when dry. There’s a good FB group with all sorts of great info, but they are def nit Lithops. Lithops are living stones.
Those saucer plants look awesome.
Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
Wellll...shoot....
Why do I always watch videos about something *after* I've done it??
Trial and error? Lol.
I was just saying the same lol hope they don’t die I’d be so sad 😞
Me too!! I'm a newbie succulent lover and I watch so many videos. It is very confusing because so many say to do different things. But she is obviously great at caring for them. I will be taking her lessons to heart!
Hehehe I was thinking the same ❤🌬🌌🙀 live and learn
It’s nice to see some interaction here. Thank you so much for the comments, Everyone! Huge apologies for the very late response. Wishing you the greatest of health, the biggest of blessings and the purest of love! ❤️💰
i've spent 5 years growing succulents and your video taught me everything i missed. Thank you
Hi! Thank you so much for this comment. It made all the work that I’ve put in this video so worthwhile. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about two to three months behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much again for the comment.

Thanks for sharing.. kindly tell us about the potting mix.. thanks
I do have a video about potting mixes, but lately I have started using regular garden soil and I have had great success with them. Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
"Energy Flows Where Energy Goes" Thats such an important message. So true! :) I tend to underwater my succulents and a small amount of leaf drop is soooo much better than over watering. When im too on top of my watering my succulents do worse than when I am more relaxed about it. Its always better to wait a day and see then chance and water too soon. :) Great Video. :)
Thank you for supporting my channel, Denise! I really appreciate every little comment. 😃❤️So long comments like your are bonuses. Sending love and luck your way! 💕💕💕😊
Try using a spray bottle when soil looks/feels dry for indoor succulents. That method works well for my north/east windows.
Love all tour vr

"Energy flows, where attention goes"
Thank You For Sharing Your Video Tutorial On Succlents,
I just got into succulents about a year ago. I joined a succulent lovers club and also read and watch videos on caring for them. My club members all seem to follow the same path but I get a lot of conflicting information online. You just answered some of my questions that I haven’t found a straight answer to before. I like that you give thorough advice as you show us what you’re doing. You just answered why you shouldn’t repot new succulents as soon as you get them and either pot dry succulents in wet soil or wet succulents in dry soil and never water them before 8 days to 2 weeks. I’ve asked others before about repotting plants I receive from online sites. I don’t have any local nurseries here. A lot of the ones I receive are blooming and/or have pups. I’ve had answers such as go ahead and repot them or at the other end not to disturb them then. That’s what I thought and you confirmed that. I have a lot of questions but one I really need to know now, because I’m potting some that I got a couple of weeks ago and repotting ones that have seriously outgrown their original small pots. I see that you don’t remove all of the soil on the roots when potting new plants. I’ve mostly been told to remove as much of the soil as possible even to washing the roots. But I’ve seen growers who think that as long as the soil is not too wet or doesn’t look too good, it’s ok to leave some or all of the soil on the roots that they’ve been growing in. I see some that come in soil that looks good and they’ve obviously been thriving in so I feel like I should leave their soil on and pot the plants with their soil into new soil that’s recommended but also resembles what their original soil is. I learned to use a gritty soil mix with my cacti and my succulents that are mostly Crassula, Haworthia, Gasteria and ice plants. I don’t do well with thin leafed succulents like a lot of Echeveria. I’m glad to have you show you’re advice in real time. Thank you!
Hello Laureen, thank you so much for the long messages! I really appreciate them. I love all the details. I do think you’re on the right track with everything. It’s quite true that most of it just takes some common sense and a little digging here and there. That’s referring to info that’s available online.
I don’t suggest to strip all the soil off the roots or even wash them all off. I feel like it’s too much unnecessary work. I have always left some soil and my plants have been doing fine. I guess, people would say to remove all the old soil with the idea that those soil have already been stripped of all nutrients which could also be true, but then, as long as there’s more newer, fresher soil around it, I don’t think there would really be a problem. The plant can always grow more roots so that it can access the more fertile soil. So stripping away ALL the old soil is just overkill. I honestly think either way works. It just depends on how much work one is willing to put in.
Thank you for the message. My apologies for the late response. I’ve been so busy. 😅 Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Is it cheesy that I got teary eyed watching the time lapse? Nature is so beautiful. 💕
Not at all, Molly! It’s such a good thing to hear that you appreciate nature this much. Happiness is learning to appreciate the simple things in life. These things are priceless. Thank you so much for the comment. I greatly appreciate it. More blessings to you! Stay healthy and happy always! 🙏❤️💫
My niece was staying with me last summer. I told her I wanted some car us. She picked out some healthy ones. Those are doing fine. I went to my grocery and they had different succulents that were mistreated. I bought all I could carry. I bought all them home, repotted them and do. I realize I did everythin wrong after watching your video.but I did wAter them because they had been neglected. I realize now
They are doing okay. I am happy to have found your video. I hope pI do a lot better now and I can return and watch your video again.
Hi Janice! I hope all of your succulents are healthy! Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries.

"Energy flows where attention goes" Such an informative video! Excellent! Thank you for taking time to share with the internet. Very good information, :)
That is so sweet, John or John’s wife! (Sometimes it’s the wife who is using the account) 😁 You are very welcome, but I think I should be the one who is expressing gratitude. I really appreciate comments like these. 🙏🌈 Thank you so much for leaving this comment. It’s words like these that inspire me so much! ❤️🌈🙏
This is SO helpful, thank you! I have 6 succulents which I've kept happy for a year, I dont want to upset them by reporting wrongly!
Great job with keeping your succulents happy and healthy! I’m so happy that you are doing such an awesome work! Thank you for sharing your story! As long as they are happy, you’re all good! 😊 Thank you again! I really appreciate it! ❤️☺️🌈
I’ve been into reptiles a lot and recently bought a bearded dragon! But I’ve been into succulents a lot and I’m planning on buying one soon! Doing as much research as possible
Wow! A bearded dragon! 😁 That’s very interesting! 👍 You are so on the right track with doing research. That’s what I did when I was starting. It helps a lot for zero casualty.😃 It’s a really fun hobby. As they say, “it’s cheaper than therapy”, which is so true. Happy Planting, Diana. I’m excited to hear about your first purchase. 🤩 Thank you so much for leaving a comment. It’s really nice to hear what people have to say. I really appreciate it. 🙏🌈
I love the Split Rock Succulent...i will be adding them to my garden. Thank you
Split Rocks are super cute. I find it so adorable that their bloom opens and closes every day. Thank you for this comment. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
Very helpful video, thank you. This answered all the questions I had. I'm in South Wales, UK. I repotted all my succulents yesterday in John Innes Number 1 compost. The compost was slightly damp and my instinct was not to water. All the succulents were potted in garden soil before, outdoors and struggling. I have a small conservatory so I've put them in there now. I was careful not to compact the new compost too much. Fingers crossed! Thank you again. Great saying that too
Hi John! UK is one of the best places to grow succulents. You guys out there barely need to water your succulents. They are also not likely to suffer sunburn out there. You were on the right track not to water them after replanting. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries. I can’t believe I’m 1 year behind now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I’ve been buying succulents for years and not doing so well with them. I recently trimmed back my aunt’s long, hanging, overgrown jade plant. I watch nearly every youtube video on propagating, pruning and growing jade plants and everyone said different things. I came across your propagating experiment video, and I loved it!! I shared it with my aunt, who can now better propagate her jade leaves and trimmings. I also shared 2 more of your videos on watering and propagating clippings. GREAT GREAT videos. I have learned more from 4 of your videos than I have from dozens of others on youtube. I can’t wait to propagate and share my jade trimmings and ghost plant!
Wow! Thank you so much! This is such an awesome comment. It’s a real honor and privilege to have received this kind of comment. It is always so nice to hear that my videos are helping so many people. Thank you so much again! I really appreciate it! Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies too for the very late response.

Awww...thank you. I love cute tiny things and miniatures, that’s why I totally love little garden tools. I’m glad you liked it! Succulents and tiny tools is such an adorable combination. 😊Thank you so much for leaving this comment. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈

You are just so adorable! I was just so kindly gifted a succulent and I want to take good care of it. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos!
Hi there, Josie! My apologies for responding too late! I'm not sure how I didn't see the notification for this comment. I had to filter through my messages to find it. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it! More blessings to you! ❤🙏🌈
I didnt know I shouldnt water while they're blooming. Thank u for that tip. I have several succulents that are blooming right now even though I really dont have that many in my collections yet. They are really quite inspirational.
If they are planted directly in the ground, they don’t seem to mind. My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this message. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to reply to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful. So instead of trying to do that (‘cause now, I’m a full year behind) I’ll start responding from newest to oldest. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Success in repotting rely on the information that I shared in this video. I hope this helps a lot in preventing deaths in most newly repotted succulents, especially the newly purchased ones. 😀
Hi ma would u wanna trade any
Hi Sharon, I guess it depends. 😁 Which one caught your fancy? I had to say it depends ‘cause I have so many varieties already.😃 In fact, I had to get rid of some unwanted ones. (Sickly ones that are prone to mealy bugs) I didn’t have any problem with mealy bugs in San Bruno, but here in Brentwood, it was quite a challenge. 😅🤣😆
I love growing all different kinds of succulents, veggies and houseplants. Succulents are my favorite because they require very little care. Thanks for sharing your tips. I'm hoping to help as many people as I can reconnect with nature and to start a little collection of Their Own! Whether it's growing succulents, house plants or your own produce like I am, it's really nice to be one with nature and so satisfying too see your plants grow especially when they are producing food!
So true, Stacey! I like your goals. That’s a really great goal. I’ll check your channel! Thank you for leaving this comment. I’m always happy to help. 😃❤️🙏🌈
Hi Stacey, great information on your videos. I found some opportunities for improvement so that you’ll get more views. You can also make your own research ‘cause simply uploading a video on TH-cam will not ensure views and watch time. Feel free to send me a direct message on instagram if you have questions on how to get more traction. I’m more than happy to help. 😃🙏🌈
@@SucculentFame thank you for the great information!! I will be messaging you on Instagram soon. Lol. I also wanted to thank you for checking out my channel!
You’re welcome, Stacey. I offered to help with your channel ‘cause I think you have good information to share. It just needs some fine tuning. 😃 As I’ve said, you can also make your own research by watching youtube influencers on how to improve your craft and get more views. 😃
Thank you so much!! I love finding channels like yours in the gardening community because my #1 goal is to be able to continue helping as many people as I can come together and become reconnected with nature 😊 Thanks and happy gardening! I do appreciate the kind words!
Wonderful video. You are a great teacher.
Thank you so much, Patricia! I really appreciate your comment. Wishing you love, health and blessings always! ❤️🙏💫

I wish I would have found this video sooner! I repotted a succulent from a nursery pot into a more secure one and immediately watered it afterward. I think it was pretty thirsty but I hope I didn't hurt the roots anymore than I already had. It was pretty attached to it's nursery pot and I had to cut the pot away even! Anywho, great video! Will tune into more as I love succulents too! ❤
I hope your succulent will pull through. Please push back the next watering schedule. I think it will be fine. Thank you so much for sharing that. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
I really recommend you. Watching here in Cebu, Philippines.

First time to see your video. Am your new subscriber. I am starting to propagate my neighbor's
discarded succulent. I think she lost interest on her plant when it almost dried out. I will try to see all your videos and hope to be succesful in this. My daughter bought a violets plant and will try to propagate them also. Thanks and God bless you. Be safe.

Thank you, Janie! 😃Yes, it’s a long way to go for me. I think I need about 50 pots more than what is shown on the video. 😁 Best of luck with repotting!

@@SucculentFame you too madam...& i hope i can start collecting cactus & succulents soon' you're one of my best inspiration : )
Hi! There has been white mold on my plants, I cut off the areas that are infected and was wondering if I should repot the soil. I’ve had these plants for about 4 months
Hi Sena, it is okay to leave them in the same soil, but if you feel like the soil has already been depleted of nutrients and if not changing out the soil will keep you worrying about your plant, it is best to use new soil. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries. I can’t believe I’m 9 months behind now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the inquiry. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Very nice, Sheila! I can’t believe how much your succulents had grown, and multiplied since you started your channel. 👍😊
Yes, that's so true, a little over a year and about 600 bucks worth of cuttings (maybe even more 😅) and a big move to another city that's totally way warmer than the San Francisco area and I have more succulents than I can handle. 😅 hahaha It has been the best journey ever. Learning everything is bitter sweet. And indeed, experience is the best teacher. Thank you so much for dropping by and leaving a comment. 😀😊
Succulent Fame : You’re welcome! And wow 600 bucks! ang laki non a! ... you have a great return on your investments, Happiness and experience, plus hardwork. Thank you for sharing your passion, and great tips.
Yeah...sumobra ang addiction...😅😆 it’s really so much fun kasi. 😊🤩❤️ Thanks sa support ha. Every comment helps talaga. I really appreciate it. What’s your first name? I saw someone sell soap on TH-cam. Ang lakas na ng order nya. Instagram is a great platform for taking orders. She makes the soap on youtube and takes orders through instagram. Are you here in the US or in Pnas? 😃
Thanks. Your information was very good and I learned some new things that will help me with the many succulents I have. Sent

Thanka for the video! I just bought a split rock that had already bloomed and has the stalk left. Should i cut that or just leave it to wither? I watered it the second day i got it. I was a little worried but i know they just sit there in the stores unattended and needy. Im just impatiently counting the days till i can repot it! I figure I'll give it a couple weeks to recover from moving, blooming, watering.
Hello! Congratulations on having flowers on your split rock. Just let the stalk wither. I normally just leave mine until it’s very withered. Withered and dried stalks are easier to pluck. There shouldn’t be any resistance at all. Thank you for the comment. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Thank you! Your video was very helpful.

Thanks for the tips," positivity grows where good energy flows." I love a good motivational quote. If you don't mind I'm going to quote you on that. Beautiful plants can't wait to try your tips with my collection.
Not at all! 😊 These quotes are free for all to share. I would love for more people and lives to be touched by these quotes. I’m so glad to hear that. Thank you for the nice comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings in 2020! ❤️🙏💫
Thanks for all of the great information. That Stone bloom is magnificent. I might need to add some of those to my inventory. 👍👍👍
By the way you have some of the best potting tools. I love that lil shovel with pointed tip you were using.
Yes, they are super handy. I love these tools a lot. Makes gardening and repotting so much easier. Thanks again, Ruthie! 😀
Thank you for so much information. Your split rock is
very pretty; it knows how much you love it!
Hi Trevor, thank you so much as always! 😀 One silly question...are you Trevor or Trevor's wife? I have been refraining from addressing you by your first name, 'cause some wives would use their husband's account. 😀 Just making sure that I'm addressing you properly. You have been supporting my channel with your comments. The very least that I can do is address you properly. Thanks so much again! 😊
@@SucculentFame hi Sheila, you are so polite with what you asked me! I'm Trevor, it's me who is watching your videos; I love them 'cause you're always so bright and happy! Thanks 😃 🌵
Thank you so much again for all the support, Trevor! I really hope the happiness, positivity and enthusiasm rubs off on people all the time when they watch my videos. Have a wonderful weekend! 😁
Great tips! Thank you so much for sharing. I think I kind of been doing this because when ever I get a new succulent I'm too lazy to repot them, so I end up leaving them in their nursery containers for a while and just water them in their original home. I do keep them in the area that they will be living and eventually I end up repotting them. So I guess I'll continue to do this, haha ;)
lisett_WonderWoman hahaha That worked great then. 😃😆 This is especially true for Lithops and mesembs. Especially because most cactus soil mix are always damp. 😅 Thank you so much for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it. 😃💕🌈
This is the best video I've seen so far for a beginner. Thank you!
Hi, Sara! My huge, huge apologies that it took some time for me to respond. 😅 I was on vacation. 😊 Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate it. More blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈
It was a pleasure watching your video!! I not only learned a lot but was also inspired! Nice job!
Thank you so much, Giselle! I’m so happy to hear that! Thanks again! I really appreciate your comment! ❤️☺️🌈
Lovely video Sheela. Great information on succulents
Thank you, Asha! I’m so glad you liked it. I really appreciate your comment. More blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈
Succulent Fame Thank you😍😊

Thank you, Catherine! I really appreciate your kind words. ❤️☺️🌈
Succulent FameHi Sheila. I have just subscribed. You inspire us not only with your skills in everything succulents but also inspire us with your inspiring words. God bless. 😍🌵🌷💐🌹

I want a split rock, I’ll have to be on the lookout it has a beautiful flower. That’s my next plant 👍
One of my favorites! 😊 Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Amazing! I bought a bunch of cute succulents and one of them has the root coming out by a good 4 cm and I was wondering if I should repot right away?
Hi! You certainly could. Just be careful not to water them right after repotting. Let them settle in first before watering. You could also postpone repotting until their properly acclimated to their new space. My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this, too. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to respond to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful. So instead of trying to do that (‘cause now, I’m a full year behind) I’ll start responding from newest to oldest. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I love watching and listening to you. Thank you for your wisdom. 😀💐
You’re welcome, Catherine! Thank you so much for the kind words, too! I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
i got my gollum jade around a week or more ago. i put it in a bigger pot earlier today. im hoping it does good in there because it has been doing really good lately
Thank you for the comment. I hope they’re doing great. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Is it ok to use some sand in regular potting soil
Hi Mickie, yes, it is. It makes regular soil more fast draining. Thank you so much for asking your question. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
Excellent, specific info!
Thank you so much for the kind comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I recently got into succulents and I
repotted some over the weekend and watered them straight after.
Tomorrow (its nighttime right now in Australia) I’ll repot all and some new ones into dry cactus mix I bought tonight.
Is this the right thing to do?
Thank you, I loved your video 😊
Hi! Are they in a thirsty state before you transplanted them? If they are not, I think it is risky to water them immediately after repottjng. They are quite different from regular plants. Succulent Cuttings can be placed in water within the same day, but for some reason, they are more likely to die when introduced to wet soil, unless they are in a thirsty state prior to repotting. My apologies that you might have to do it all over again, especially if it’s not too warm out there. It’s summer here in the US, going into fall. I think it’s the exact opposite out there. Thank you for asking your question. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies, too for the very late response.
This video was so helpful! And I loved the inspirational message too. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
Hi there! Thank you so much for this comment! I really appreciate it! I’m so glad you liked the inspirational message. ❤️☺️🌈
"Energy flows where attention goes" is a great one but it's almost impossible to not pay attention to the bad things since they are showing themselves in front. Obstacles are not transparent.
Unfavorable situations will always be there. Like people, situations can never be perfect. 😃 We just need to divert our attentions to the things that we are still supposed to be thankful for. 🙏 ...little things like how lucky we are that we are still alive. When we start to focus on the small things that make us still feel a little fortunate, it multiplies...meaning we will receive more things that we can be grateful for. 😃 No matter how dire a situation is, you can still find something positive in it. I see unfavorable situations as an opportunity to show how what we got inside...like how tough we can be when the going gets rough. 🙏🌈
Thanks for sharing this. Always heard to repot just before the summer. Sounds like you have covered all basis for this to be done year round! Going to follow your detailed timelines
You’re welcome! It’s always best done before summer, but it can still work, as long as they are placed in a cool area. Thank you for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
You are very good. So informative without being boring like some other videos made by others. Thank you
Hi, Batool! That’s nice to hear! Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
What a beautiful video -- especially the time lapse at the end and the thought for the day!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it. So true, Thomas! I’m so glad you have found a way to make sense of how frequent watering doesn’t always equate to loving them. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about two to three months behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much again for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I find your videos very informative especially for beginners like me. Thank you!!!!
I Love your words of wisdom as well...Keep it up!
Hi Cecille, thank you so much! I’m glad you find my videos informative. I’m also thankful that you love the positive words that I add in my videos. I really appreciate your comment. ❤️☺️🌈 Thanks again! ❤️
I just got my first succulent today the one that looks like an amazing flower I'm going to get split rock succulent next.
Wonderful, Muhammad! Huge apologies for the late reply. Thank you for the comment. Wishing you the greatest of health, the biggest of blessings and the purest of love! ❤️💰🏆
This is amazing. Thank you for your videos and hard work!
Thank you for the comment, Blake. My apologies for the late response. I’ve been so busy. 😅 Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I absolutely LOVE your channel! So much so that I subscribed and confidently started my own little succulent garden. VERRRRY little.
Where did you find all of your white little planters!? I love how sleek and minimalist it all looks.
Hi! Thank you so much for subscribing! I bought them from Amazon. I probably have a link in the description. Are you in the US? I’m getting rid of some of my white planters, ‘cause I’m transferring my succulents and using them in a bigger project, so I no longer need most of my white pots. I can sell them to you at more than half the price. How’s does that sound? Please send me a direct message on Instagram if you’re interested. I go by the same name. Thank you so much for asking. I really appreciate it. More blessings your way! ❤️🙏🌈
Where'd you get your soil scoop/hole maker? At 5:43
Hello! I got it from Amazon. Here’s the link if you need it. amzn.to/2RPoA7g Thank you for the question. My apologies for the late response. I’ve been so busy. 😅 Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Thank you for sharing your knowledge about repotting.Where do you buy those small square pots?
Hello! I buy them from Amazon. Here’s the link: amzn.to/2OiGwJY Huge apologies for the late response. I have been so busy. It’s unimaginable. 😅 Thank you so much for the comment! Wishing you the greatest of health, the biggest of blessings and the purest of love! ❤️💰🏆
Awww i love your inspirational tidbits! Subscribed!
I’m so glad you liked it, Sarah! Thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
It’s very informative. Please tell me what is best soil mix for Succulents and what is for Lithops
Most growers would suggest cactus soil mix for most succulents. If you are planting them in the ground, any soil is good enough. I have been planting in regular soil in the ground and they are thriving. Proper watering interval is more important. I highly suggest cactus soil mix for Lithops. Thank you so much for the question. I really appreciate it! Wishing you more blessings! ❤🙏🌠
Thank you,very good video🤗👍

Hi 👋🏼 Sheila! I absolutely had so much fun and learned so much from how you explained everything! Especially when you repot, think happy thoughts 💭 as they will be happy as well. 🤗😊. I love my babies! Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge!! I am a big fan now!
Hi, Rhonda! That’s nice to hear! Thank you so much again for all the nice comments. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness again and again! ❤️🙏💫
Wow what beautiful succulents. You do such a wonderful job, and the new growth on the split ones were so cute. Thx for the video.
Hi! I’m so glad you like it. Thank you so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Thank you for the video. I currently have 6 pots of aloe vera that I split from 2 plants. Mind you I gave away 4 pots. I wish I had seen this video then, because I've never had so many succulents. Lol.
Hi Candice! That is such a nice selfless act to give away 4 pots when you had six. 😃 That is so sweet of you. I’m so sure you received more blessings when you gave those away. 🙏 Thank you for sharing this comment with us. I’m also working on giving away some succulents and stuff to people because of my 10,000 subs. It is always nice to give back. I really appreciate your comment. Thanks again. ❤️☺️🌈
Love ❤️ your channel!! You’re so knowledgeable about succulents. Thank you very much for healing us how to keep them healthy and happy.🌵🤗
Hi again, Esperanza! Thank you so much for the comments. 😊❤️
I recently got some succulents and I’ve been watching videos to learn how to take care of them. I noticed in your video you were loosening up the roots before putting them in the pot. I didn’t do that when I transferred my succulents from the nursery pot into the pot they are in now, will they be okay or do I need to take them out and loosen the ball of dirt/roots and put them back in?
Hi Sierra, it’s okay. You didn’t have to. I was actually just removing some of the older soil. It is not a requirement. I just try to remove as much of the old soil as I could ‘cause the little guy probably has already used up most of the nutrient in it, ‘cause they’ve been in there for quite a bit. Thank you for asking this question. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Your information helps me a lot. One mistake I did was after repot I immediately watered them. But currently Malaysia have crazy heat Wave that the pot drys out by 3rd day. I put them at shade area never direct sun. Everyday checking the plant water status 😂 Can I know what plant was at 12.08 ? Thank you 🙏
Hi Melissa, it’s the Pleiospilos nelii “Split Rock”. Were you asking for the name of the plant at the very last part of the video? My apologies. I might be getting confused. The video is 12:08 minutes long. Were you asking for the plant at 12:08? Thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Good video. Enjoyed it
What is the potting mix for cactii
Hi Lucio! I have a video about different soil varieties. Here’s the link. th-cam.com/video/08AK2t929T8/w-d-xo.html Lately, I have also been planting them in the ground and they have grown so much nicer and easier to take care of, ‘cause I have a watering system, so I dont have to spend so much time watering them manually. Thank you so much for the question. I really appreciate it! My apologies for the very late response. 😅 Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Thanks for the very informative video!
I just bought my first bear paw plant 10days ago and it has 5 big leaves with 2 tiny ones still growing but i want to change it into a nicer pot. Is it a good time to repot now? Or should it wait for it to grow more?
It never hurts to wait until they’re bigger. 😊 I love bear paws. Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to all of comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Some nice tips i have got from this video. Thanks mate ;) after a long break
You’re welcome, mate! 😊 Again, huge apologies for the very late response. Thank you so much for the comments and for watching my videos. I really appreciate it. I responded to your other comment, too! Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
What size pot are using to repot the succulents in? I think they are the white ones at the 5:13 mark. Is there a size that's appropriate to use when repotting? Thanks for the video!
Hi there, Maggie! My apologies for the late response. I think those are the 2.5 inch pots. I have a link to those pots in the description. Sizes of pots is more of a personal preference, but do consider that if you want them to grow faster and bigger, choose pots that would be big enough for when they’re double their size. I hope this helps. Thank you so much for asking your question. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
beautiful! thank you!

Thank you for advice
Thank you again! 😊
Hi, what do you use at the base of your pot at 5:23?
Hello Jasmine, I placed a wire mesh so the soil wont fall through the base of the pot. It doesn’t keep all of the soil from falling through, but it does help. I just buy a piece of screen (the ones used on windows) and cut them in small pieces. Thank you for the question! My apologies for the late reply. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫

Hi! Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

this is awesome! thanks for making/sharing.
You’re welcome, Katie! Thank you so much for the comment! I really appreciate it! Wishing you tons of blessings in the coming year! ❤️🙏💫
I need your help. I've got some succulent plants that a neighbor had left on her porch when she moved and they're dying and I've got no clue as to help them
Hi! I hope they’re still alive. Space out watering intervals and when it’s time to water, please give them a good soaking. This is the key. They need to experience a good dry spell, but when it’s time for them to drink, their leaves need to plump up. Thank you so much for the message. I really appreciate. More blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈 My apologies for the very late response. 😅
I wish I could see a picture for you.
Do not overwater them. Go to the hardware store garden section and buy some fertilizer that says for cacti or succulents. I use Schultz’s Instant Cactus Plus liquid plant food. Add a droplet to one quart of water. Other brands are “Cactus Juice” or “Algoflash for cactus”.
