Love this video. Do you have a video on how to make a matching drainage tray?
@SucculentSocial
8 ай бұрын
Thank you and we are glad you enjoyed the video. I do not have video for drainage tray as we do not use them. Our succulents are mostly outside so water just flows freely to the ground. I make some concrete trays but mostly for my candles as trinkets. Haha. But if you have the moulds for the tray, it should work exactly the same, just remember to really shake well so there will be less air bubbles. Thanks

I have a question, when my molds are all done, the top or rather, bottom of the vase is very irregular even if I put a decent ammount of concrete. it is also a 3 day drying concrete. how do you avoid it getting so rough? I'm thinking mine just drink up a lot of the water and it gives it that irregular finish...? any help?

oh, I make sure to wiggle it when it's wet so there are no air bubbles

Hello! :) we usually tap the mould multiple times to achieve a level surface, which also allow the air bubbles to go up and released.. if your mix doesn’t have a lot of water, you just have to tap it longer to achieve a flatter surface.. also suggest to pour in the mix by parts (for smaller moulds, 1/3 parts works for us, or 1/4 parts for bigger moulds) then tap it before the next part to allow the mix to settle in properly. :)

Hi! How do you make some of your cement pots white?

Hi. So sorry I missed your comment. We use white cement, the usual cement. You can usually fin them next to each other in a trade shop.
What type of cement do you use? Portland?

I bought a cement pot...no drail hole.. So which succulents would be ok without drainage?? Or should i just use it as a cover pot??

Hi Michelle, you can plant any succulent in pots with no holes but you will really need to ensure not to overwater. Alternatively, you can also add in some holes. ;)

I made these pots but after 2 to 3 days they start to crack..any solution for this?
@SucculentSocial
2 жыл бұрын
Hi @Ritisah Peerthy, we found from experience that concrete mix with high ratio of cement tends to crack easily. you may wish to try different ratio of cement and aggregate (eg. sand) and find the best mix (as this depends on the quality/type of cement as well). all the best! 😊
