      You can use the soil mix recipe I have shared in the video or you can prepare a simple soil by mixing 1 part fine sand & 1 part compost to propagate the cuttings. Also, here is a detailed video on kalanchoe propagation you can check out 👉 th-cam.com/video/NIGHnESAk10/w-d-xo.html

    I think we should skip using cocopeat for succulents and cactus as it retains moisture for very long time which may lead to root rot in our plants.

    • @Plantalogy
      @Plantalogy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Thank you. Appreciate your concerns. 😊💜
      I think the gardens, who always overwater their succulents and cacti, should skip adding cocopeat in their potting mix. 😊💜

    • @user-ze6do7kf4e
      @user-ze6do7kf4e 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      As long as you don’t use too much it’s not going to leave the soil in a soggy wet mess which is what rots cactus and succulents. It’s also with a gritty mix to which will create air pockets so it doesn’t stay too wet for too long.

    • @Plantalogy
      @Plantalogy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Do you mean how often I water my cacti and succulents? I water my cacti when 90% of the soil is dry. And in the case of succulent, water them when the top 2-3 inches of soil dries out. I check my plants individually before watering. 🙂🙂

      Brick chips can be used as an alternative to Akadama soil but still, that is not 100% work similar to the Akadama soil.
