[@desiertoscacti5388]

What a great update to all your lovely collection Marija! I really enjoyed looking at all of your healthy,well taken cared of plants! Thank you for sharing and sending much love and plant positivity from Athens, Greece. Marina~~~

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Desierto's Cacti thank you Marina!!❤️

[@kdmylove]

I have one prickly pear. On the way home with it from the nursery it pricked me all over. one month later and still i scratch and find needles in odd places. looking at your cactus I started scratching my hands again. They are beautiful though and i see needles on your skin....wow that u are still so calm. One cactus and I'm done.....but hey great plants...good luck

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Christina Lobo 😄 yes I have been pocked many time and carried needles in my skin for weeks. It’s abusive love relationship with cacti 😄

[@ramicabranham6680]

My succulents have been etiolated too. I keep them in the window and they stretch, put them outside and they burn. Trying to find that happy medium. Great collection though. Thanks for sharing.

[@hankscactus3973]

I love your collection. Thanks for sharing... Hope your day is really good!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Hank's Cactus thank you! 😊

[@alcurtis93]

Looking great! Some look like they need more sun but yet they're burning ha. Can't win :) Thanks for sharing Marija

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Alex Curtis you are so right! They need more sun and I was trying to find solutions. Got another little green house so I can move plants on the deck. The new Greenhouse collapsed after two days and my baby lithops fell through the cracks of deck. I was so distressed (I found them!!!) and now looking for other solutions so they can be moved to get more light. Sometimes I think some of us in states like Michigan are not meant to have succulents. 😒

[@Olgasgreenland]

Wow Marija they have grown so much. How happy are you that you see your plants going so well and been happy. I love your Euphorbias lactea. You have a huge collection. Now i understand it. Maybe because you don't show your cactus in the winter so much. Great collection.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Olga's dreamland thank you! I have been little overwhelmed lately with lack of space and right places for plants. I wish I have a green house.

[@Olgasgreenland]

I can totally feel you. I wish you get one very soon.

I am in ABSOLUTE heaven. I love Cactus and Succulents. I live in Florida and actually do get decent light, but not sure if I can sustain those types. Of my 72 plants, I have a Euphorbia and two Agaves.... soon to get more.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Earth Boy Sun And Rain. You definitely can in Florida if I can I Michigan! Your succulents will probably do better than mine 😊. I’ll soon do update on my cacti collection.

thnx a lot.
what fertilizer u use and how often.
perlite and sand its ok but what that black things there ??

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Syed Ali Farhad cactus soil is black mixed with perlite and sand. I have some videos about fertilizers I use. Mostly bought from store but I make my own but putting tea bags for a few days in a water.

[@alingjumaring8346]

Love your cactus

[@pauladupuis2354]

Where do you buy your cactus..? Can survive the cactus in Oregon..? is very cold in winter and a lot of snow..

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Paula DuPuis not outside but if you take inside it will. It’s the same here in Michigan, a lot of snow. Sorry for late reply, I have issue with getting notifications on TH-cam 😞

[@minnied.5946]

You have an amazing collection!

[@patriciaespinozapalacios5563]

Son lindos tus cactus amiga pero son peligrosos en la entrada de tu puerta puede caer alguien será muy doloroso mejor hay que evitar accidentes

[@denisejamour8196]

Just subscribed. I’m interested in cacti. Do you bring them all inside in the winter? Can they take cold weather?

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Welcome! 😊 they can take temperatures as low as 40 fahrenheit or 5 Celsius, and that is if they are dry. If you have a lot of rain and snow even on those temperatures they may get root rot. So to answer your question, they do have to go inside since I live in Michigan with 7 months below freezing temperatures and a lot of precipitation. Cacti basically hardly need any water for 4 months November to end of February even when inside.

[@raydenzidane6]

Beautiful Marija!

Retro Ray's Succulents AKA retroraysrealm thank you Ray!

[@3pumpkins170]

Hi Marija, what happened to the succulents you purchased from Lowe's clearance rack back in January? Did they make it? I just started growing succulents but I'm not sure what type of soil to use. Do you know what the best soil type for jade plants? All cactus mix or 1/2 cactus mix & 1/2 potting mix?

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

3pumpkins yes! Some did some didn’t! This is Update of 50% of my pots so I’ll do update on the rest and then you can see some of the recovered once 😊. I buy cactus soil and mix with sand and perlite or pumice. I would not use regulars pitting soil on jade because they do like good drainage.

[@syedalifarhad6034]

your collection is aweaome.
pls tell me the potting mix and how often u water ur lovely plants.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Syed Ali Farhad cactus soil mixed with perlite and sand, 1/3 of each. I water once a week 😊

[@nyokamullins4000]

Hi Marija, I have a question, since we both live in Michigan, I was just wondering about watering my succulents. My house is dry, not much humidity, so I was watering every 2 week's but they seem to be drying out after a week, so do you think I should water once a week???? tks for your video's, Nicky

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Sorry for the delay, this comment didn’t show up in my notifications. Yes, I think you can do weekly watering. You can check my videos about watering tips too.

[@giventogrow8533]

Has you cylindropuntia ever done the crazy weird thing mine is doing? Im still at a loss as to what the heck its doing lol! Anyways wow Marija its so lovely to see our plants outside arranged so nicely. You have a weonderful collection *family* of Cacti! You must be so happy to see those plants everyday! Youre Tradescantia Zebrina is doing amazing! They just love the bright light!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Succulent Living by Marija actually I repot the cactus in the video I’m uploading right now. It’s a super long video but even if you can skip to the cactus part and check it out. I don’t know wtf it’s doing lol

[@JamesEndo1]

Nice porch collection. Looks so healthy! What side of the home is it? I'm amazed that cactus aren't full sun and can get burned. We've had hot 100 degree dry weather recently and see some burn. Happy growing!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

James Endo it’s facing south... and yes they can burn when they initially go outside easier than later because they have t adjusted. Usually for my plants burning happens in May or June but not so much later

[@JikMikDailyLife]

Nice madam
👍👌👌

[@margaretsims4344]

Fantastic collection

[@debjanibhowmick5870]

Did u take all the plants to the new house? There r a lot of plants.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

I did! I have 300 different succulents according to my husband who recently counted my pots 😄. Though since 2018 when I made this video I have sold a lot of them, bought some new ones etc.

[@fishcars8078]

They look extremely healthy. Many of them are great sizes. Much bigger than most of mine. When you have them outside spring through fall how often do you water? I know it will vary by location and weather conditions but just on average? I like to try to get an idea on what most others do. Most of my collection is in terra cota pots and are in 6" or smaller. My Euphorbia enopla is about 3 years old and is nowhere near the size of yours. I always enjoy your videos. Loved seeing each one on the porch up close.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Fish&Cars thank you Wade! 😊 it’s south facing porch that appears to get the most sun most of the day, so I water once a week. If it’s really humid and raining for days I wait day or two more than a week, but if we have dry days for weeks I water every 5 days because small pots especially become very dry. Euphorbias appear to like more water than cactuses.

[@fishcars8078]

As always, thank you so very much! I tend to agree on most of the Euphorbias. The few cacti I have (except schlumbergia) I water pretty sparingly but the Euphorbias seem to do better with a little more. Honestly the Asclepiads seem to as well. I've been watering about twice a week recently due to the high heat (88-96°) But I try to stick to a once a week schedule for convenience and ease of remembering which was watered and when. Doesn't always work... But most of my Asclepiads now have flower buds so hopefully it's working! My Euphorbias are hit and miss. Some looking great and some looking rather indifferent. Not a lot of growth. I recently got a Pachypodia saundersii as a gift though it has dropped most of it's leaves after potting. Thank you again for all of your advice and terrific videos!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Fish&Cars when there is a lot of plants it’s really hard to keep track which one was watered and which not when it’s not once a week 😄. Like you, i find once a week the easiest. It would be fun to see your collection. Maybe you make video sometimes. 😊

[@debjanibhowmick5870]

If u ever decide to sell, let me know. Thanks

[@nikomollov4950]

[@swayyy2734]

Hi,this is the first time I've watched your videos,I was wondering what kind of insecticide you use for your cactus?
I'am beginner and I would appreciate your tips, also I want to congratulate you for your beautiful collection of cactus and
succulents.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

12 345 most of the time I use 70% alcohol that you can find in pharmacy and grocery store and I pour it in the spray bottle and spray succulents that have mealy bugs or scale. Sometimes I use neem oil or insect/soap spray for succulents that’s only 4dollars and can be found in Lowe’s and Home Depot. Just make sure when you spray to remove succulents from sunlight until next day. I have some videos about it.

[@swayyy2734]

Anyone know the name of the cactus after the haworthia?

[@johnmlodik2880]

😂what is name of cactus plant that they look like small cigars or something

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Mamilaria elongata

[@normatrewhella9003]

When you bring your plants in for the winter do you change the soil in case there are bugs?

[@normatrewhella9003]

Well, silly question. You have too many to change the soil.

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

@@normatrewhella9003 yeah, that would be too much but it is not necessary. The only time I change soil is root mealy bugs. I am planning though to treat plants with alcohol or neem oil as well as clean from dust prior to going inside.

[@terryklemesrud758]

Hi! I am a new subscriber and I am amazed at your collection!!! Do you let them get rained on? Thanks for the beautiful tour!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Terry Klemesrud thank you! ❤️ no, I don’t let them get rain except occasionally and very controlled. Our rains are heavy and can last for many days without break. They would get rot because they would not dry.

[@terryklemesrud758]

Okay, that's what I needed to know. I only have one so far and I take it inside when it's going to rain. I have finally watered it after a month. Oh yes, it also got 1 flower!!! But now that's gone. Thanks!!!

[@succulentlivingbymarija8872]

Terry Klemesrud I hope you get some more so your plant is not lonely 😊. You can water it more often than once a month. I water once a week.
