Smart lady presenting good information and her presentation feels like very useful common sense way. She should be rightfully proud of her succulent collection, just outta this world. Thank you for the information
Hope it was useful Donna! Thanks for watching.
Hi Liz, I just reported trap drip spam bott that just slammed your comments.
I loved every minute of this video, you have a healthy happy beautiful garden. Succulents are such a spunky plant, keep up the great work. I've used a similar master soil in commercial nurseries, they love it. All your tips are spot on, the big barky stuff that you sieved is far better than rocks or broken up pots as a filler or drainage in the bottom of pots, it's not encouraging root rot. And I'm a cheapie so love the tray sieve idea too. Thank you for sharing your loves with us, they're wonderful. 🧡💚💜
Thanks sweetie. That weirdo is really annoying. Such a waste of time.
Thanks again for watching and glad to know I'm on the right track with my soil. Cheers, Liz
To get to the soil recipe without watching the video or seeing the beautiful succulents, please go to 2:50 of the video. Cheers, Liz
You’re garden is as beautiful as you speak on your video 😊

Thank you for all the tips
I’m so glad I found you on TH-cam
This is exactly what I was looking for(: And I’m proud of myself for coming to the same conclusion after loosing to many succulents and trying my own soil combinations for better success . I haven’t used the granite, but I’ll buy some for the future. I’ve been using Espoma organic Plant Tone, and so far they seem to love it. I love your organized soil system ( I’m going to look for that flexible orange container you used) , and I have to get that puffer! That’s very effective . Thank for all the tips; I just subscribed (:
I'm glad the video is useful. The red flexible bucket is a 42L Oblong Flexi Tub I bought from Bunnings warehouse here in Australia. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Liz
Beautiful plants and nice information, stay connected friend

@@LizKreate Yes, of course; I thought I had a lot of those beautiful babies, til I saw your collection, amazingly inspirational! TY for sharing your knowledge!
Liz you should buy a concrete mixer. To mix your soil. I worked for a cactus succulent lady who made her own soil mix everything in a concrete tumbler .
I used to have a concrete mixer that I used for mixing my soil and cleaning my rocks. Someone gave it away on me...LOL Thanks again for watching and commenting Erinn. Cheers, Liz
You are very good teacher for all your beautiful plants,my dream cm true,I'm so happy cause you share your idea with all your perfect garden,thanks a lot,nd God bless you and your hands for everything you done nd share,🌵
Can't just stop your videos and learn new things every time. Can i use perlite instead of Granite decompose?
Oh my gosh! I use the big stuff as filler too! Funny how a lot of things I see you do, I naturally tend to do since learning about succulents 😊
Only, the big “stone I use as top dressing.
Hey Liz, I am a beginner and I love succulents. I am really disappointed on myself for killing my healthy and beautiful succulents inspite of doing the best for potting mixes. I am trying to save the rest in Indian summers. I loved your video and it's the best one I feel. I subscribed too. Please continue sharing more care tips, soil mixes, temperature requirements, etc. I totally loved this one and will redo my potting soil.
Any tip on maintaining them in summer would great. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for watching and subscribing Umang. Growing succulents I find that they are sensitive to moisture level in the air or areas where there's high humidity, so a very dry soil mix would be better. If you're using the recipe for my Master Succulent Soil Mix, I would advice to add 50% more granite to this mix and only water once you see the bottom leaves start to dry up or become soft to the touch. Hope this helps. Cheers, Liz
Thank u ! I never knew this ! I got some nice succulent and I really want them to last

My Dear, FANTASTIC! I know it may seems almost silly for one not to know how to use soil 🥴. However?!
For me, being somewhat new to my succulents 🌱. Even though I’ve been planting for decades. Succulents are different. I am now and since I have most of the items. Getting the brick and granite. Thank you for sharing your soil mix. So happy now.
🤗🌱🤗
Wow verry beautiful succulent plants thanks for sharing 👌👌👌👌I am your new friend stay connected please
I’m just curious what would be bad about using a hose to remove the old soil? Also why do you leave it for a few days after wetting soil? Is that so it dries out? If so then do you water it in after repotting since it’s now dry? I have so many questions lol you’re literally the succulent whisperer 🥰
Hose pressure might be too much and soil gets dispersed everywhere. Leaving a few days to dry up helps prevent root rot.
Love this!!! ❤️ Please make the next videos for Advanced and Propagation soil mixes! 💚
On it! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Liz

This is a useful way of mixing soil.thank you. great video
The best video on the subject, thank you.
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching.
Liz - a great filler that's CHEAP & ENVIRO-FRIENDLY is PACKING PEANUTS!! They take up lots of soil space, they don't break down under the soil, and it's great to recycle them instead of trashing them!! 😉
Thanks for the tips!
Gee you've got that down to a fine art Very Clever Hints 😊

Most welcome and thanks for watching. 😊
Thank you so much for the lesson! I’ll begin right away... ✌🏼
Great tutorial! I was looking for a soil mix for my string of hearts.
I had to rewatch this video this morning because I've been making my own decomposed granite LOL I told you I have a lot of granite around my house so I've been doing a lot of "mining" lately and smashing a lot of rocks so when I get bigger pieces of the granite I just wrap them up in a towel and smash them with a hammer . I really just wanted to see the size of the granite you put inside of the soil mixture. I've also been using a strainer to strain out the fine particles because even though it's a bigger grain of sand than beach sand it's still too fine. I made the mistake when I first started of using playground sand or sandbox sand in my soil and it basically just turned to cement and suffocated a lot of my plants. I also have my own compost we have an old horse manure pile that's well over 10 years old so the bottom of the pile has been worked through by worms and it is pure black gold!! after running boiling water through it and letting it dry up I've even put it up a few small small plants with just that compost and they are thriving. but keep in mind it's not just straight compost it's been there for so long that I can use it on its own. ❤️❤️❤️
You been a busy girl. I used to put some dried cow manure straight onto my soil mix. Only problem was the weeds/grass kept popping up but my succulents loved it.
Very amazing soil have a blessed day
Really your succulent plants are amazing. 👏👏

Extremely helpful video, but I personally find this mix too heavy for Northern or Central Europe countries. It would just hold too much water and dry forever:(.
But I agree that may be super awesome mix for hot climate outdoors. ❤

I wish I can go to your place I love succulents and I want to have as many as what you have too. Thank you so much succulents are so sensitive i wish i can take care of them too well i havent started yet but I will
Thanks for watching Beverly. I find that in growing succulents, one has to "Be mean to keep them keen." It means to not fuss over the succulent too much. The major factor in killing succulents is over-watering. The plant will tell you when it needs a drink. Wishing you all the very best in your new venture. Cheers, Liz
Hello Liz! Congratulations for your channel. Could you share with us your propagation soil mix?
I've tried a few propagation mix and the one I find works best for me is straight coconut peat or coco coir/peat. Hope this helps. Cheers, Liz
@@LizKreate thank you so much for your reply!! I will try it!
@@LizKreate i have watched your todays video for granite and you said you are using the fine granite in your propagation mix. So is not just coco peat? Since i cannot find granite can i use lava powder. It contains minerals as well. If yes what is the composition? When yoy have the time I would love to see a video on your propagation method.
Thank you very much for sharing all your insight and experience! I'm hoping you might have time to answer one question. I've been unable to find pellet or granular Humic Acid that dissolves in the soil in a short time. The choices I have are granular Humic Acid that's for long-term soil treatment/activation or Liquid Humic Acid that acts very quickly. Which would you recommend?
Long term is better since most succulents only need a little fertilizer unless you want to grow them green and big fast.

Love love love your videos. I have learned a lot as a newbie. I really enjoy it. Just a quick question, after I potted my succulents into the master soil mix, some of them got root rotted. Is that because my soil is too wet?
Could be a number of things. Depends whether it's cuttings or rooted plants. Hope this videos will help. This is from my other succulents channel. Cheers

I really like this video. It very helpful guide for a beginner like me. I do hope u can setup an online website that sell Master Soil Mix for Succulents. Free shipping to US will be awesome. 😉
Its interesting to see such a water retentive and non-dense mix. Conventional wisdom would be to maximise drainage and minimise moisture. Then again, most people kill their succulents, conventional wisdom sucks. But this is actually pretty similar to mixes I see for small tropical plants like peperomia prostrata or ficus pumila, which is surprising. Main difference is using granite instead of pumice.
I find that pumice is a good substitute for decomposed granite for drainage and air circulation. In conjunction with a porous planter, it's an ideal environment for growing succulents. Thanks for watching. 🥰
Wow amazing. Thank you.

Wonderful video... I am a novice and have collected in the past couple of months abt 50 succulents. I am afraid to use soil other than succulent mix with perlite. Not as confident as you.🌵
Maybe try with the cheap one's and see how they grow. Good luck and happy experimenting. Cheers,Liz
Very interesting video, Can this mix work for cactus also? Enjoyed the video greatly, great job!
Yes, absolutely but I add 50 percent more decomposed granite to the mix. Cheers, Liz
Thanks 4ds video well done..🎆
Thanks to you. Glad you like it. Take care. Cheers, Liz

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge... I had been growing succulent for 1 and a half years but my succulent are not very healthy inspite of trying every self experimented soil mix.I had failed in growing crasulla baby necklace lots of time. Can you help me with the care and tips?
nice story
thanks!
For a Hen and Chicks succulent what would be the proper mix for it? Doing so well, but time to move it to a real pot (though that will be hard to do with the decorative pot it came in for Day of the Dead).
Any premium potting mix that's fast draining is ideal for this plant. Autumn through spring is their growing season and also perfect time for repotting.
@@LizKreate Thank you.
