Thanks for that and good luck with your collection.

I’ve seen videos where they suggest 100% pumice. However, Judging by the your lithops, I went by your soil mix suggestions. Thank you. I look forward to your new videos.

Thanks Jerry, you can use 100% pumice OR 100% Akadama, however watering becomes an entirely different thing and in our experience, more difficult.

Hell from America. Thank you for a great video! Can you share where your new potting system is sold? Nice upgrade from the standard 1020 trays that don’t last very long.

Thanks for talking about uncommon plants. It’s difficult to find good info on mesembs. I would love future vids on Conophytum if you are able! Thanks for the good content.

Excellent video! Thank you for the information. Does the potting mix part contain any Loam? A Lithops Seller I bought from recommended mixing in some loam-based compost into grit, pumice, vermiculite, or granite. Do you think this is good information? So far, my Lithops have survived 6 months (splitting and making a new set of leaves) in a Lithops mix I purchased online containing pumice, Lava rock, sharp sand, cocopeat, organic compost. I personally think its worth going out of your way to obtain Pumice rather than replacing it. It is interesting what you have said about not using a very deep pot for better drainage. I bought a book on Lithops that recommends a pot at least 8-10cm high because the tap root can grow long. I had previously planted mine in 8cm high pots with 6.5cm diameter.

Maşşallah bi dolu suculent!,,

Good video, but 1. How much sun? Direct or filtered? 2. I love in Los Angeles. When should I water?

Great video! What is the name of that really cool looking plant at the end of the video that looked like stacked triangles? Is that baby's necklace?

How many days before the soil of lithops has to be prepared?

Hi Johnny. Thanks for the video. I use the grit that feel heavy in small pot. Is that too heavy for the roots? I have a few died, with the top look fine but then eventually the top just separated from roots. Not sure if that’s the issues. Thanks in advance

It sounds like the soil/potting mix is not draining quickly, so the mix may be holding too much moisture. Use a lighter mix with more drainage material.

Hi, i'm from one of the coolest part of the Philippines. Will your soil mix work for me? And what does "mil" mean? Thank you! I love lithops 😊

Yes it should, and mil should be millimetre.

Hi I live in the States, and I am having a hard time finding Washed River Sand. Is there something I can use as a substitute?

@johnnyAGardening

Home Depot sell a washed coarse sand. Maybe look for coarse horticultural sand, pumice or maybe perlite. Maybe fine crushed rock. It needs to be coarse, not fine.

Can I just go down to the river and get some sand and wash it and disinfect to use for succulents? Do I have to buy horticultural sand?

Washed River sand will work. Look for the coarse type.

I understand you seldom need to water them, but something changed to the watering when they go in bloom. Is that when you water them more often? Mine are just now blooming. 🐀🐾🍀🌿🌾🌵🌴

A LITTLE water only when flowering, once the flowers begin to shrivel stop watering. AND do not water them when they are splitting.

I'm sorry what kind of 3 mm sand? Washed groover sand? What is that? Maybe in America, it may have different name.
