Nicely repotted, Ana. Look great at the end in their new home 😊 Wow 40c there! That’s too hot for me, I’d melt 😂 Thank you for sharing with us always, have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜☕️
@@CactusCaffeine You called it. One of them will get into flower today , two gave me pups and few seed pods . SO thank You so much for introducing me to him.
Great video today😁🌄🥤🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟I also repotted some huge echinopsis. I draped a double layer of shadecloth over them in this hot season, And I won't water for at least 3 weeks until the root damage has healed and new roots grow😉💖I use cinnamon on my cacti when they get repotted to stop fungi on their roots🙏Thanks for the episode and have a great day my friend😌🤲🌄
For untangling the roots on a potbound plant, you may want to try a bonsai root rake. You can get one on Amazon or make your own from a three prong table fork. Just clamp the last inch of the tines in a vise and bend at a right angle. While you are there, a handy thing for repotting is a bonsai soil scoop. These are very handy in place of a trowel for slowly adding fresh soil to the pot. I found a package of ten for about $14.00 on Amazon. Mine are plastic, but more expensive ones are made of metal. I suspect they were made originally by cutting a section of Bamboo at a long angle. I use a piece of polyester felt on the bottom of my pots instead of screen, water flows right through it, but only the finest of clay particles pass through, and I do not use clay in my soil mix. If a plant is being stubborn when I am unpotting it, I push gently on the felt or screen through the drainage holes with my chopstick. this usually makes the soil ball slide out pretty easily
FANTASTIC repotting video Ana :-D I LOVE Trichocereus Cacti so much, thats a brilliant idea with the Tongs, it makes it so much easier for handling these spiny fellas, and you have potted them up so wonderful, I don't like to use Peat moss either, its acts like cardboard when it dries on the roots and its so hard to re wet again, and WOW at 106F at 7pm, we think we are having a heatwave now in Ireland and UK at just 75F LOL! :-D thanks so much for sharing this FANTASTIC repotting video Ana, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER to Las Vegas for a FANTASTIC Monday today XXXX
I like the soil, wish we could get that here!! The reason I don't like peat based soils is some cactus don't do well in acidic soil. Plants that come from the "Big bend" region of Texas and Mexico like Ariocarpus, Astrophytum, lophophora and others from this region like a limestone soil. I lost a lot of ariocarpus before I learned about the peat. When young , the plants do ok. But when they become old, the acidity burned off the roots!! Had this happen on my very old lophos also. Once I changed up on my soil the plants rebounded!!! So yeah I won't use peat except on Epiphyllum of other epiphytic cactus. Great repot!!! They look so much better!!! We are not too hot here right now as we have been getting a down pour of rain since last night!!! From Morris park in the Ozarks, out to Las Vegas have a great day!!! Peace,Love,Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌺🍀🌷🌿💐🌳🍁🌻😃👍
@@CactusCaffeine yes, Astrophytum asterias grows on limestone soil in the same region as Ariocarpus fissuratus & lophophora williamsii. This whole region is basically made of limestone. If you look for in habitat photos, you can see how they grow in nature. I have looked them up on the internet and it looks like limestone gravel they are growing in. I use crushed dolomite limestone (sand) and limestone gravel for my "big bend cactus" it's heavy weight wise, but well drained and mirrors the soil they are from. From Morris park in the Ozarks, out to Las Vegas, have a great night!!!! Peace,Love,Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌺🍀🌷🌿💐🌳🍁🌻😃👍
I went to help my neighbour yesterday with their computer. They are going to move sadly. But as i wanted to go home, the knew about my cacti adiction they said, here Carine you can have those two cacti. hooowww my gosshhh they are beautifull. as i am seeing this video, i think they are exactly the same. I am so glad because they are not tiny. Not Major, but tiny either. Me very happy. And now i know how to repot them if/when needed 😜.. Great video as always. I am juggling between your video's and Lyn's from desert plants of Avalon. She is also really nice and also so helpfull. Thanks for the tip. Have a great evening. Love from cold and rainy Belgium 😍🤩
Oh, your kindness was rewarded! I hope they show their flowers soon. That way you can properly ID them. I’m glad you find my videos useful. Happy gardening! 😃🌵
Oh Ana I wish you could come to my house here in AZ. No reprieve from the heat, sorry. But you could walk through my cacti and I carry a package of labels and name all my cactus. Lol. I love that big pot. So pretty 🤩
Great job, Ana. I see that you found some gloves that you are comfortable with. Have you tried folding a newspaper long ways to rap around cactus? You can better control the clamping pressure on the plant by holding the ends together instead of wrapping cloth.
This is the gloves that was sent to me by a sponsor that I featured in one of my videos. I really like it as it has long sleeves that protect my arms. It also works for short spines cacti. But not for thick big thorns. 😉 I also use newspapers, inverted pots, plastic.. actually, I just grab whatever is convenient and close to me when repotting. Lol! As long as I don’t use my bare hands. 😄
Thank you so much for this video. I inherited the care of a bunch of cactus and am binge watching your videos to learn as much as possible. I’ve got some repotting to do and I’m a bit nervous. I’d also like to move two larger cacti-a big barrel cactus and a 6+ foot one. Not sure I’ll be able to move the tall one. 😕
Wow! You are going to be busy! That 6+ foot cactus, oh good luck! I hope you have someone to help you. Thank you for watching my videos and I hope they help. 🙂
Woo hoo it's monsoon time in the desert, we can complain about the humidity instead of just the unbearable heat! Thank you for walking us through the repotting. It's so interesting to see the different ways people do it. Question for you: the top dressing looks lovely but do you use a moisture meter to tell when the cacti need water, and if so, how do you deal with the top dressing? I have pebbles covering the soil on all of my cacti but I have to brush them aside EVERY time I want to use the meter, very annoying with 50+ pots. When I repot next time I think I will leave off the top dressing. Thanks! 🌵💚
Because I have most of my cactus in terra cotta pots, I can feel through the pot if the soil is dry. That is one advantage of having terracotta pots. I don’t use a moisture meter except maybe for 2 very large deep pots that I have. For the few plastic or glazed ceramic pots that I have, I use lava rocks as top dressing. They let more air pass through so the soil does not stay wet long. When in doubt, I let the plant itself tell me if it needs water or not, if it is shriveled or plump. ☺️
Loved the repotting session, I loved the end where you showed them in the pots all finished, I thought the Hustler one looks fantastic in that pot and the stones really look great, look forward to see how they both progress! 👍😁 ☕🌵☀️🏜🌞🏜☀️🌵☕
106 at 7pm!! Ouch🥵,that's a whole lot of no thank you. Always enjoy seeing how other people repot because you might find a better or easier way to do it,thank you🙂.
Hi! I'm also in Vegas and so glad I found your channel. Thank you for all the wonderful videos and help. Have you tried using the Star Nursery Dr. Q's Cactus and succulent mix?
Hi neighbor! 😉 Yes, I used to not like Dr. Q because it had too much bark but they changed their blend recently and now it is better. If I’m at Star Nursery, I get Dr. Q. But I like Kellogg (from Home Depot) better because it has pumice and poultry manure.
Hi, I just bought a bag of Kellogg’s from Home Depot and I was disappointed. It was no near the first bag I bought. This time it had so many big barks and I can’t get it wet when it dried out. I’m working on a new video about soil mixes and I think I’m going back to Dr. Q. FYI.😉
@@CactusCaffeine oh man that's a shame. The bags I've bought of Dr Qs do have quite a bit of bark but I mix it with Bonsai Jack gritty mix. It seems to rehydrate well, but its also been so humid lately with these thunder storms. Can't wait for your next video. 😊
Holy cow these things are popular. Trichocerids are sold out on every site I shop, but I'm now on the waiting list. I only trust Planet Desert, Mountain Crest and Leaf and Clay. Never, Ebay or Amazon.
Peat moss is slightly acidic but its production is destroying valuable and rare peat bog environments. It is better to use an alternative and reduce the impact on these habitats.
Ana, Do your hands ever get stuck by cactus? I have inadvertently brushed against mine and the pain lasts seemingly forever. They are too fine to remove. I have googled trying to find a remedy, but nothing works. They are too small! When I know I need to touch them I double glove and use paper. But like I said, this was just working near them and I would brush against them. I feel very stupid.
The glue trick shared here is brilliant. Of course I got my share of spines getting on me. The worst are the hooked ones. Can’t tell where the hook angle is inside your skin. That’s why I always wear gloves. They are not full proof but they still help from clumsiness. Lol! 😄 I use duct tape for glochids. The real strong sticky ones. But never touch glochids with gloves. I threw away my gloves that had glochids stuck on them. 😬
Ana, do you by chance own any Haageocereus cacti? I bought one from Lowes over the summer with cinnamon colored spines at the top, and whitish/translucent spines all around the sides that kind of wrap around. I was trying to find out care tips for it. And recommendations where I may find out some information on it? Thank you for any help you may be able to send my way! I live in central Indiana. I just found out that Indiana is in the top ten most humid states of the U.S, with an average annual humidity of 73%. So, I really have to be careful with cacti care.
Trichosereus ...Soo that's the name of my cactus!!! Thank you Ana....my neighbor has been selling them...the cactus was in pretty bad shape so I bought her so I can revive her!... Can I ask a question though?? The middle part has a sleight bulge....what does this mean Ana?? Anywho thanks so much for the video.....I feel we're all cactus friends here!!! Though to be honest i am not a caffeine fan🤭....but I am a cactus fan🌵🌵🌵🥳
@@CactusCaffeine can I ask you something.....I know this is going to sound old fashioned....but what is DM mean?? I'm kinda old fashioned....silly I don't know but still
@@CactusCaffeine also.... I hope I'm not bothering you with these questions....not guilt trip you...you don't have to answer Ana...but I like going to you because I like your realistic, down home approach to cacti....you speak and explain things in a way that doesn't make me feel stupid....
No worries. Happy to help a fellow hobbyist. 🙂 You can direct message or send me a message in Instagram or Facebook. In there you should be able to attach pictures.
Hi a recently bought a Domino cactus still can't know if my cactus like sun or not, I notice when exposed to sun it turn yellow you think cactus thirsty or to much sun, any help please..😁😁

@@CactusCaffeine 🤣 I wish it was 🤣
Good morning 😃
Hi Ana👍great video.👋
106 degrees Ana! Wow. I hope you are standing in a bucket of water to keep cool. lol.
Lol! That is actually a good idea. I had a cooling towel wrapped around my neck
Wow I will never complain about how hot is it here in Florida. Thank you for sharing very informative.
Your high humidity makes your feel temperature hotter. Good thing we have low humidity or I will be steaming. 🤣
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing cactus plans have a blessed day my friend
I have been searching all over for a good repotting video lol I was watching your other repotting video over and over
Awww… ☺️ Thank you. I hope they are helping you.
@@CactusCaffeine very much it did keep up the great videos big fan
Nicely repotted, Ana. Look great at the end in their new home 😊 Wow 40c there! That’s too hot for me, I’d melt 😂 Thank you for sharing with us always, have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜☕️
Trichocereus is one of the columnar cacti i like. I prefer the globular forms but the Trichocereus blooms are just amazing! 💚🌺🌼🌸🌵❤️
Fortunately, having low humidity makes it a little comfortable because we don’t sweat here. If we had humidity at this heat, we will be steaming! Lol!
Good evening ana
Hi there! 😉

Hi! I'm also in Vegas and so glad I found your channel. Thank you for all the wonderful videos and help.
Have you tried using the Star Nursery Dr. Q's Cactus and succulent mix?
Hi neighbor! 😉 Yes, I used to not like Dr. Q because it had too much bark but they changed their blend recently and now it is better. If I’m at Star Nursery, I get Dr. Q. But I like Kellogg (from Home Depot) better because it has pumice and poultry manure.
@@CactusCaffeine Thanks so much for your reply. Of course I just repotted all of mine in the Dr. Q's but I will try the Kellogg next!

Peat moss is slightly acidic but its production is destroying valuable and rare peat bog environments. It is better to use an alternative and reduce the impact on these habitats.
That is correct. Harvesting peat bogs is bad for the environment. I failed to mention that so thank you for the reminder. 🙂👍🏼
@@CactusCaffeine I wasn’t sure if it was such a big issue in the States as it is here. 😃
The issue is starting to pick up but 80% of the bagged soil that I see in the market still has peat moss in them. So sad.

So, how many years can the taller cactus stay in the new pot ?? 3-4 years??
I’m hoping yes. Haha. I don’t know how fast this one grows as it is new.
So..do the blue torch cactus Ike to be more dry? I moved mine back indoors because we're getting too much rain...its July in Michigan!!!🤔🤔🤔
Hi a recently bought a Domino cactus still can't know if my cactus like sun or not, I notice when exposed to sun it turn yellow you think cactus thirsty or to much sun, any help please..😁😁
If it is turning yellow, that could mean too much sun. Try moving it to a shadier position or only where it gets morning sun.
