I really appreciate this video. Thank you because I am new in the propagation of cactus and other succulents. This video is starting to boost my confidence in terms of repotting. I am rose from Marikina, Philippines.
Fantastic video, I can only hope that one day my Haworthia will look as good as these. The truncata was stunning and I’ve never seen one as large as that. Thank you for sharing this with us all 👍🏻🌵☀️
I so love this channel. You’re always top notch with everything . I feel as if I’m with a fine jeweler being shown the finest gems in detail. I’ve been waiting to find these amazing specimens for awhile , and just yesterday I was able to buy my first 5 Haworthia and Lithops! So pleased👍
Such a fascinating an educational video, thank you for sharing! I've only just started keeping succulents and already fell in love with Haworthias, so this has been a lot of help and inspiration.
Really informative and helpful to see the root systems! I have an attenuata and a tesselata and I wasn't sure what was going on with them, I thought they had root rot but now I know it's just the old roots dying off!!
Thanks for that, James Lucas has been very open to sharing his knowledge. These videos are long, we know, however they are designed to help those interested. We have a few more lined up and if you have anything you would like covered on any succulents we will try to deliver the goods.....
Thanks to you and your friend for sharing your experience and wisdom. I’m sure this is years worth of knowledge gained through work and trial and error, so I’m appreciative that you’re willing to share with us :) and man yes that is some beautiful soil, has anyone ever told you that?? Haha
@@johnnyAGardening Hey.. Johnny, Good Day! Can you show us of what soil mixture you use for your haworthia because I like your haworthia how it grows very healthy. thank you... also for the tips for taking care of haworthia and for showing us the different types of this plant..
I am in South Africa and have a collection of Haworthia as I was watching your video you have a beautiful collection but I see no Haworthia viscona, semiviva,setata I have it in my collection it beautiful like your vidios
It's look like easy to plants it but in my country it isn't easy same you I think because my country is so hot and high humidity. it's really alway leave the root and sometime leave is gone because of more rain in here. thank you for your trick I will change and adjust to plants it.
Excellent information especially the visuals which are so much better than any books. I learned several things about haworthia and repotting them with akadama top dressing. I'll be watching all your vids. Cheers.
Love the awesome video! I have gotten a good number of Haworthias with different varieties from Succulents Australia within these two years, but I have never seen such a beauty of the H truncata variegata and other variegata varieties as in this video. Hope I can own one of these one day.
I really enjoyed in-depth look at the plants. It’s important for all us beginners to know what a healthy root system looks like as a result of a proper soil mix. I’m going to look for howorthias for my next purchase (:
Even non-variegated pups can carry the genetics to be able to throw out surprises! I wish I could find these heavy duty tall square pots more readily...
You mentioned using a skirt, what is that? You make repotting and keeping the plant at the top so easy. I’ve been struggling with that so maybe I could use anything to help.
Very interesting 🥺how you check out the the roots and your knowledge of each plant.please next time can the names scroll across the screen? I enjoyed your teaching.
johnny A My 15yr old daughter and I have learnt a lot for your clips and appreciate what you have posted!! She has a small collection of Haworthia and it’s growing fast. Thanks again for your clips!!
All my Haworthias are potted similarly to Lithops using mostly grit with very little dirt. My mix is composed of chicken/chick grit(both), pumice, and a small portion of garden soil. An 80/20 ratio of grit to soil.
That sounds ideal, the mix you use would work well. WE are doing a seperate video on potting mixes for succulents soon. The actual mix depends on the succulent, your climate and your watering habits.
Love your videos - super informative and looking at your passion for these succulents is amazing! Can you tell what fertilizer do you use and whats exactly in the soil mix and why? Thanks!
Here is the recipes that James uses Haworthia potting mix * 6 parts succulent soil mix * 2 coir (coarse) * 1 part 3ml washed river sand * 1 part 1-3ml blend washed river sand (no clay or fines) * 1 part perlite * 1 part either 4 - 5 ml Scoria or 3 - 6 ml Pumice.
Many thanks for this very nice and informative video. Your haworthia springbokvlakensis has such clear and plump leaves. Would you mind sharing, how to get such clear and plump leaves? I subscribed to your channel and looking forward to learn more on haworthia from you.
Hello, sir! I love your videos. I watched a video recently--I think maybe you were on another youtuber's channel (?)--and you were talking about a succulent soil mix you make which contains akadama and mostly, if not all, other super gritty ingredients. It might have even been soil free (?). Now I can't find the video. Could you perhaps direct me to it. I would certainly appreciate it. Thank you.
Do you sell Haworthia and your potting mix. I’m in US. I LOVE HAWORTHIA. Thank you for this video. It has helped me a lot. I’m just starting with these plants. I need all the help I can get.
Hopefully we have a video soon on succulent soils, will try to outline materials you can use as well as alternatives.... BIG TOPIC but I think we are up for it.
Great videos actually showing what to look for and how to pot is so much more valuable. Is there a particular fertiliser/ commercial mix you would recommend for the home gardener just starting to build a collection of succulents or is it better to do a diy mix. Also great to see an Aussie vid for us soles in the land down under too many of the videos on TH-cam are international and refer to products we can not always get here.
Thank you for this informative video. I will change my haworthia soil mix to a more airy one as I find that the roots almost' disappeared ' eventually . Will haworthias rot if water is accidentally spilt in the centre during watering ? Hope you reply. Thank you.
You have a nice video and beautiful collection . Very clear words to follow on how to do the propagation and to repot . As what i have seen your soil is more of fumise . I want to ask your mixture of soil you use i hope you don't mind my asking . Thank you ...
Great video! Love the way they look. Mine are grown in a hot Mediterranean climate. I know that watering should be withheld in the peak of summer (July to August in Northern hemisphere), but they are more susceptible to shriveling and drying at that time. Do you have hot summers too? How do you treat them at this time?
We have hot summers as well, a Mediterranean climate but more moderate to hot than hot. In very hot summers and as thy are probably in containers which will dry more than if in the ground, I would think a little water once in a while will not hurt them, just don't overdo it. I will have a talk to James Lucas and get back to you.
I have a few varieties of haworthias (cooperi, truncata, reinwardtii, etc) that ive had for years. I personally like the full/clumped look but I’m starting to worry that leaving them in a tight clump will eventually kill them if i dont separate and repot. Thoughts? Thanks PS i love your videos and your accent is so soothing!
We agree that they can look good in clumps and in nature they grow like this. After a long time in a clump they can start to deteriorate due to over overcrowding, however as to how long, its hard to tell. So eventually you will need to divide them to keep them healthy. We guess you have repotted them as this also keeps them healthy because over time the growing medium deteriorates. In a good growing medium we have seen them go for five years with no real problems. So its up to you as to how long you leave them, but eventually you will need to divide them to keep them looking good
Question: do you think the Haworthia would travel all right. There are some online sales, but I am afraid of the stress of the traveling for them. What do you think. I live in Switzerland.
This man is so knowledgeable and has such a relaxing voice
I could listen to him talk about _truncata_ all day 🤗🥰🌱
I loved your potting technique to add soil and shake it down. I tend to push down but I will try the shaking technique.
All of these Plants are Endemic to South Africa where we have amazing succulent diversity.
Indeed you do, so many amazing succulents from South Africa as well as other plants. Are you a collector?
This was one of the nicest and informative videos on Haworthia that I've seen. Really enjoyed it. Only recently bought a couple and have loved them.
Thanks Marjorie, they are great plants and are excellent indoors as well.
Do you throw the leaves?
Thanks for all the good information you share. Congratulations.
Glad it was helpful!
what a fantastic substrate mix... i rarely see people using such a breathable/aerated mix like that.
The best done video on Haworthia. So much info I’m going to view it again. Thanks
Howarthias remind me of the Czech glass beads I use in my jewelry making! Gorgeous light play!
I really appreciate this video. Thank you because I am new in the propagation of cactus and other succulents. This video is starting to boost my confidence in terms of repotting. I am rose from Marikina, Philippines.
Thanks for that, Good drainage is the big secret.

Will look into doing that, however it interferes with subtitles or those who use the. We will find a way...
Very interesting video. I would love to know the proportion of your potting mix for the Haworthia. Thanks for sharing 👍🏿
It is in the notes below the video at th-cam.com/video/uBAcV2t-D_k/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for an excelente video!
Glad you liked it, we have another coming specifically on Haworthia truncata and hopefully one on Haworthia maughanii
Fantastic clip! Learnt heaps
Thanks RJ a few more on Haworthia coming soon, H.truncata and H.maughanay

Hello sir, could I get the formula for the substrate you use in repotting the Haworthias? Thank you.
Love Haworthia 💓
Thanks Vernon, and for us they are one of 'THE BEST' indoor plants. More coming on Haworthia soon
Excelent..

Can you tell what fertilizer do you use and whats exactly in the soil mix and why?
Thanks!
Thanks for the video, I see you use fertilizer. Could you share the brand? Do you use the same fertilizer for all the succulent varieties?
Yes, fairly much the same, always just a pinch, never over fertilise.
Love to watch your video! Very details and helpful instruction ❤
May you share a tip of components to make that good soil?
Thank you
Here is the recipes that James uses
Haworthia potting mix
* 6 parts succulent soil mix
* 2 coir (coarse)
* 1 part 3ml washed river sand
* 1 part 1-3ml blend washed river sand (no clay or
fines)
* 1 part perlite
* 1 part either 4 - 5 ml Scoria or 3 - 6 ml Pumice.
@@johnnyAGardening thank you for your's sharing, I'll try new soil recipe with my haworthia
Can you please know me soul mixture you used for this type of plant, thank you sir.
Many thanks for this very nice and informative video. Your haworthia springbokvlakensis has such clear and plump leaves. Would you mind sharing, how to get such clear and plump leaves? I subscribed to your channel and looking forward to learn more on haworthia from you.
Hi Johnny. What kind of fertilizer do you sprinkle into the soil for haworthia, lithops, and other mesembs? Thanks for another great video
Very helpful! Thank you:)
You're welcome!
So this needs a deeper pot? I have one in a 3in pot... I think it's time to repot!!!
I’d also like to know which fertilizer you’re using please? Thanks
I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you so much . Can you send plants to the US. I live in Texas. Again thank you.
Hello Marion, sorry we can't send to Texas at present as quarantine makes if difficult. Working on getting a supplier in the US.
Your succulents are amazing 🤩
Just wondering where do you leave?
These are filmed at Succulents Australia
I see
Thanks Johnny!!!
Thanks so much for very informative vidoe please share soilmedia

Buenas!! Que sustrato usa usted, que porcentajes?? ... Empecé mi colección de haworthias!
Love it so many babies..what kind of fertilizer was it on the bucket?
Do you sell Haworthia and your potting mix. I’m in US. I LOVE HAWORTHIA. Thank you for this video. It has helped me a lot. I’m just starting with these plants. I need all the help I can get.
I wish soil bags had a see through bit so you can take a look at the soil 😓 so hard to find soil like this without going online all the time 😭
Hopefully we have a video soon on succulent soils, will try to outline materials you can use as well as alternatives.... BIG TOPIC but I think we are up for it.
@@johnnyAGardening I would definitely enjoy it! I know other's would as well!
Love the video and this great plant! Can you tell us what type of fertilizer you are using? Thanks
It is Osmocote Plus with some lime and a little pure nitrogen fertiliser. ONLY a small pinch, once a year, never over fertilise
Thanks so much!
Great videos actually showing what to look for and how to pot is so much more valuable. Is there a particular fertiliser/ commercial mix you would recommend for the home gardener just starting to build a collection of succulents or is it better to do a diy mix. Also great to see an Aussie vid for us soles in the land down under too many of the videos on TH-cam are international and refer to products we can not always get here.
James uses a pinch of 9 month osmocote and a pinch of lime.
Hi John! What kind of fertilizer are you using?
Hi Good Day, may I ask how many months will it take to readily pluck the baby haworthia away from his mother. Thanks Keep Safe and Godbless😊
It is really a matter of size, once you feel it may have developed its own roots its ready. Will try to demonstrate that in the next Haworthia video.
Thank you for this informative video. I will change my haworthia soil mix to a more airy one as I find that the roots almost' disappeared ' eventually . Will haworthias rot if water is accidentally spilt in the centre during watering ? Hope you reply. Thank you.
They should not rot with a little water, however try to avoid watering the foliage on the plants to be on the safe side.
You have a nice video and beautiful collection . Very clear words to follow on how to do the propagation and to repot . As what i have seen your soil is more of fumise . I want to ask your mixture of soil you use i hope you don't mind my asking . Thank you ...
Soil mix is now in the description below the video.

When do they go dormant? Should I wait to repot in springtime? Its winter 2022...🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Wait until spring.
Plz say about the potting mix.Plz say those ingredients which you use in this potting mix
Its in the notes below the video.
Question: do you think the Haworthia would travel all right. There are some online sales, but I am afraid of the stress of the traveling for them. What do you think. I live in Switzerland.
