This is a great mix, but I live in Georgia, we get a LOT of summer rain, so I use extra inorganic material. Coco coir with Cork chips (expensive but excellent), as well as horticultural charcoal. I also use perlite, pumice, chicken grit (crushed granite), and a sprinkling of osmocote or other time released fertilizer pellets. High nitrogen is not always the best thing for succulents, it promotes fast growth but if your plants are not receiving tons of sunlight, they can become etiolated (stretched). For space in deep pots, i use Styrofoam packing peanuts, orchid bark chips, and lava rock.

I am writing a comment using Google Translator. I do not know how to use it on a mobile phone, so I use it on a computer. It is a convenient world. Your videos are very helpful to me. I have been growing succulents on the veranda of an apartment in Korea for a little over a year. There are many things I don't know yet. Since the climate is different, the method of growing succulents is different, among them the method of making mixed soil.

Thank goodness you've translated it for me. It takes up so much time translating Korean to English. Thank you. Our weather has changed a lot since last year. We now have really high humidity, too much rain, windy and cold. Last year was dry, hot and low humidity. This is why I have different soil mix for different conditions. Where I plant them also makes a lot of difference.

Depends how you want it to grow or what kind of succulent it is. I always say if in doubt, use the master soil mix and make sure you have some top dressing so there's no contact between the soil and the plant. Got a video coming up on repotting cuttings that might be of use to you.

Hi Liz, since we don’t get rain here like you do, would it be wise to plant my succulents using your intermediate soil mix formula? I’m using terra cotta pots and the majority of time the succulents are in my greenhouse. I figured I will water them deeply once a week. I’m fixing to get them out of the greenhouse come summer when we get temperatures upwards in the 90’s. Thank you for creating your videos. I learn from them.

Using my Master soil mix, the longest time my succulents have experienced with no watering is 5 months. As a rule, I only water when they need it; highly dependent on the size of the pot. To get my succulents used to the summer heat, I prefer to let them out slowly in autumn through spring.

Hi Liz... This is awesome.. I love watching and learning from you and also just dreaming of one day having such lush big succulents. I was in my garden today... after all the rain... Most of my succulents are directly in the ground and I noticed some have rotted.. but my soil is STILL damp.... days after it last rained... Do you think I should add some sand? I looked for Granite but haven't been successful. I also have some bugs that particularly like my biggest succulent.. (i only have 1 big one so far) lol.. Unfortunately I don't remember names like you do. I plan on trying to mimic your Intermediate mix... I like experimenting... it's fun!!

Google pictures is an awesome way to get your plants identified. Just take a picture of the plant and you should see a square box if you look at the picture in your album. That's Google picture search. it may not match up immediately exactly but it will bring you closer and closer to where you will finally be able to identify your plant. Also try downloading a plant identifier app. ☺️

It should be evident with the weather we've been having lately. I only have a couple of rotting leaves. The trick with this soil is to water less in summer or dry season and if they have too much water in the soil, it will boil and kill the plant. Water them when temperature is low and no water when hot.

Hi ADL, Have you watch my "Succulent MASTER SOIL MIX?" I find that this is a safer mix for "most" of my succulents. Haven't had any root rot on this mix yet. Just to avoid confusion....Intermediate soil mix(THIS VIDEO) I mainly use this soil mix for propagating rosette forming succulents such as echeveria, graptoveria, pachyphytum, etc.; or if I want them to grow big and fast in a big pot or even in the garden scenario. I use a different formulation (ADVANCE SOIL MIX) for succulents that I planted in a small pot. Who says succulents are easy to grow....LOL

Yes, you can. Just use half the recommended dosage or a quarter for succulents. They don't need much fertilizer.

How often do you water them when you’re trying to fatten them up on intermediate soil mix ?
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK 4 жыл бұрын
The intermediate soil mix get less watering because I put them in the tall pot that holds a lot of soil. Watering times vary according to the plants that's in the pot as different plants have different watering requirements.

I'm glad you found your way here. Fertilizer I get from Bunnings here in Australia. I only use pumice for indoor plants but will experiment with it on succulents. Link to the MASTER soil mix is on the video on the right hand corner (click the "I") and also below the video in the description box.

I dont understand succulents. People say not to water until soil is completely dry, but my succulents are out in the open getting constant rain during the winter and its doing just fine. People say not to put in full sun but in summer its getting full sun in 90-100+ degree temp all day and its doing fine.

Which people? 😅🤣 There are so many different succulents that one can't generalize. Just like any other plants, trees, shrubs and vegetables....Succulents have varying needs. One has to know the name of the plant to understand how to grow and care them. Some succulents love water, some don't. Some love the sun and others will die if exposed to the sun. Thanks for watching. 🥰

I remove Peat moss from newly purchased succulents that have them and use it for some indoor plants. Coco peat is also another name for coconut coir. It's a natural fibre extracted from the outer husk of coconut. It's entirely up to you which you'd prefer.

I know this should be a no-brainer, but I can only find a 13-13-13 fertilizer. So can I just reduce the amount I'm using to achieve the 10-10-10 ratio? I've been looking this up but can't find the right keyword. Anyways thanks for your videos, I'm about to start my succulent garden🥰
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Жыл бұрын
Succulents don't need much fertilizer. Just know that the more Nitrogen they have, the faster they grow but less colorful. So, any fertilizer will do. I use a 10|4|10 so I have to add more of the 4 to balance it.

These are soil mix I formulated for my succulents. Depending on what look and outcome I want the succulents to grow. The soil mix is the most important factor in growing succulents successfully. Please see link below the video on how to make Master soil mix and this video explains what Intermediate soil mix is and what it can do to succulents.

Pwede as long as after the initial watering, keep it out of the rain (still lots of light and air flow) and only put baby plants so they can grow and adapt to the weather and don't water; if you feel the pot is still heavy even though the top soil is dry. This will encourage the baby plants to grow deep roots and search where the water is. Good luck.
