I recently retired and got bored one day, so I ordered 30 various succulent cuttings.. while I waited for their arrival I took a KZread crash course On what makes succulents and cactus happy.. The first thing I learned was if you can't grow succulents or cacti, then you need to buy silk and plastic plants.. lol. I've grown many types of plants both indoors and out.. Just nothing ever this easy.. I could lay it on a rock and it would grow which is a perfect plant for us older folks.. My plans are to grow for gifting to family and friends, churches, hospitals, schools, construction workers, or basically to anyone with a good heart that gets up each day to contribute in making this great country run.. Thanks for the video. Very informative. As Schwarzenegger said.. I'll be back..lol

Chicken grit is the same as decomposed granite and you can get it really easily at any ranch/garden store...and it doesn't absorb moisture like cat litter...just a thought.

@GrowingSucculentswithLizK

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the info Brea. I've been told by a few people that in USA and some parts of Europe, Chicken Grit is made up of decomposed granite. Unfortunately, I don't have any way of confirming this because here in Australia, the Chicken Grit that's being sold for calcium deficiency in chickens are made up of calcite and limestone. It can also be really expensive for around $25 for a 5 kilo bag. Best buying the Maifan Stone (Chinese decomposed granite) for $35 for a 10 kilo bag. Decomposed granite if available is $75 per cubic meter.

@robinchubak7747

Жыл бұрын

@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Yes, chicken grit is granite but it's certainly not decomposed. It's tiny stones. It provides no nutrition to fowl, it helps them digest real nutrients that are in chicken feed. For use in potting mixtures it holds no moisture, only provides space for air and roots. There are many types of chicken feed that are probably confused with grit but anyone in a farm store will set you straight. Today I purchased 50 pounds for about $30.00 and it will last me a long, long time. I'm in Virginia, in USA.

@GrowingSucculentswithLizK

Жыл бұрын

After being dry for a while, the plants are dehydrated and soft. If planted straight into soil, it will take them a long time to recover and have a higher chance of dying. Soaking them hydrates them more so that when they're planted in the soil, they can continue to grow. Soaking time depends on how soft or dehydrated the plant is. Most of the time, overnight soaking is fine.

Very beautiful and nice ❤😊

There are so many types of succulents and have varying needs but a lot of them prefers to be grown outdoors; or if grown indoors, have to be taken out every couple of weeks to soak up some light. Otherwise, providing a grow light will help.

Depends on how dehydrated the plant/succulent is. Since there are many different genera of succulent, it pays to know the specific plant and condition of the plant to exactly know how many hours/days it will take to rehydrate it. This video features mostly Echeveria. Some Echeveria can be soak for weeks and some can't.
