Hi ma'am watching from philippines may i ask if what kind of soil mix good or fit in the climate here .. Thank you so much in advance For you answer❤

[@daphnenemesis1627]

Hello I looks potasyum permanganant, but it doesn't exist red colour. İt is black. Is that ok?

[@daphnenemesis1627]

Thanks for all. Loves from Turkey...

[@Unreload0]

I'm trying to find potassium permanganate but I find it black or white. I don't see your red color. Is there any difference? Also, I can't find your NPK 14-14-14. Most have a lower level of P like 8 or less. I found one with 15-15-15, is that one good for them?

Thank you for this clip: 1- With subs: I can clearly understand what u're saying. Very clearly. 2- Soil mix ratio n me being lazy or having fun😅😅😁😁 watering my babies 3- How to check on the drainage of the soil. 4- How to remove/ clean my soil b4 potting I do have a question for you: Do succulents and cacti have different soil requirements?? When I re-use my soil, what about the nutrients? Thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@ClementineFrances-pm3kf]

4- you can check drainage by putting the soil in a pot, pouring water in the soil and see how much comes out of the bottom. And, yes, cacti and succulents can be potted in the same soil. They live in nearby the exact same climates.

I live in a country where the weather is very hot and there are many hours of sunlight so I do not worry that much about the soil. I use perlite and pumice and that´is all. If I water today in two days the soil will be completely dry again. Thank you very much for your advices. Your plants are gorgeous.

[@joygarden.succulent]

Glad my video useful for you 🧡 The most of thing I worry about the soil is they have to drain as soon as possible. Enjoy our video. Thank you so much 🧡

This video is incredibly insightful and will save the audience months, if not years, of experiments to acquire the knowledge to successfully keep succulents. Please do yourself a favor and watch it with SUBTITLES (turn captions on). One thing I could add: if the grower live in a humid area, instead of clay or glazed pots, you could try grow succulents in steel baskets lined with coco coir sheets. This would allow even more air flow to the root area and complete drainage after heavy showers (using the suggested soil mix in the video, lower the percentage of organic soil materials the higher the humidity).

[@joygarden.succulent]

Oh wow, you really a professional ❤❤❤ We keep looking for this kind of comment, that we can learn more. We try with the coco coir sheets before, but it a bit difficult when we repot them, the roots was pierce through and cover the bottom haha Thank a lot, we will discuss to do somethings new ❤❤❤

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

@@joygarden.succulent When I replaced the coco coir sheet, I just cut whichever roots stuck to the old sheet. The good thing about the succulents are they regrow their roots super fast in this kind of setup.

[@bicyclethief1802]

Hi! Loving your content. I didn't quite understand the moisture retention soil composition at 5:06. Is it just the peatmoss? or some other type of soil together? Because at 6:35 there is the brownest soil, and the blackest soil that has the peatmoss information. If you can clarify, thanks!

[@joygarden.succulent]

Sometimes we use different type of soil, but almost is peatmoss. We also use coir mix with soil, but just for plant at the temperate zone. So happy with your question. Thanks a lot for watching ❤️❤️❤️

[@luzconcepcion4507]

Love all your videos! Very inspiring! I love to plant succulents and these videos will definitely help me familiarize more on how to take care of them. May I also know what type of stone do you use on top layer of your plant? Before, I use decomposed granite but then it's too expensive here in our country if you will use it in every succulents you'll plant. So, I decided to use pumice stones to succulents and red lava rocks on all of my cactus. Thank you! :)

[@joygarden.succulent]

Really nice to hear that from you, so lovely ❤ We using lava rock to put on the surface, for both succulent and cactus. Cannot use pumice stone because they are so light, can be washed away when watered haha ❤

[@swatigokhale9495]

Again a very useful video. I am from India and we have rainy season for 4 mths. Summers are also intense. So protecting them from weather is also is a big part. Thank you so much for showing the steaming method. Its costly to make soil everytime and i will try the steaming method. I love the setup you have with all glass and its so neatly arranged and beautiful. Please can u make a vdo on sempervivum and potting them? I have somehow difficulty keeping them alive so am dng something wrong. Thank you and u have very good information given very comprehensively.

[@Unreload0]

@@joygarden.succulent thank you for the answer. Also, the potassium permanganate, as said in the product bag, has to be dissolved in water, but you apply it directly in the mix. I guess there's no problem too. Forgot to ask that too 😅. Also, do you sell your plants to Spain? It's a long trip and I don't know if they would survive the journey. Thanks a lot. Your plants are simply BEAUTIFUL.

Is it okay to use cocopeat instead of peatmoss?

[@joygarden.succulent]

Yeah, its okay. But peatmoss always better. Cocopeat needs time to decay

[@kencals]

@@joygarden.succulent Thank you for the answer

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

Coco peat is inert in nutrition but has as good water retention as peat moss and more sustainable and eco-friendly. If you decide to grow with coco peat, mix with vermi compost (worm casting) or organic compost.

[@ayansohail6777]

What is the name of stones you add in soil

[@willyougamewithme5391]

How frequent do you water? I just gotten into succulents a few months ago. The leaves keep dropping. Mixed answers from KZbin either overwatered or underwatered.

Thank you 😍 We made a video about water succulent, hope that you can get some advise here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaSvm5KFmrGfaKc

@@joygarden.succulent Thanks! I bought similar soil composition you listed. The percentages are based on volume? The 5% others is the NPK 15? Seems to be a lot or is there other things that make up the 5% others? Another question is if I can replace Peat Moss with dried sphagnum moss?

[@MrT0mer]

Dear Joy Garden, what is the 5% OTHER in the recipe? And is that the nutrition part of the soil

Yes, depend on the environment and the season, you can adjust the percentage of ingredient 👍

[@RuthlessWraye]

Im enjoying all your videos! Can we reuse soils that were previously infested by mealybugs or ants?

Can you please tell us where we can get the fertilizers you used online in the United States.. I’m not sure where you are? Thanks so much

[@joygarden.succulent]

Hello, im from Vietnam. I don't know where to buy in US. Sorry :(

[@AnnetasticStuff]

Could you show the package? I’ve figured out where to buy things with a Google lens. 🙏🏻

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

I recommend Schultz. It's a liquid fertilizer, fairly potent. You need to add it to your watering every week or every 2 weeks. For slow release fertilizer pellets, Micracle-Gro is also decent if you tend to water your succulents more often (2+ a week).

[@AnnetasticStuff]

I found what looks like the same product online in the concentrated form…

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

@@AnnetasticStuff you mean in slow release solid form? I'd be careful with high NPK concentration (the ones used for veggies and crops) as they could cause root burns on a smaller succulent.

Discovered your Channel today. Interesting and informative. Subscribed at 4.27K. ATB Also, using potassium permanganate is new to me. May I ask its specific function and if I could use it for other plants too? Thank You. 🇲🇾

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

Potassium permaganate is a household antiseptic compound. You can replace it with horticultural activated charcoal (solid form) or a regular flush with diluted hydrogen peroxide. These are prevention measure against fungal and bacterial infections if your succulents are subjected to frequent watering, or rain.

[@bigbotno1]

7:56 Reusing soil mix is expensive (15 min. steaming) and riskfull especially when a plant died.

[@joygarden.succulent]

Is that useful? 🥰

[@ThaoNguyen-hl6mb]

It really depends on what the plants die to. If it's root rot, fungal diseases, pests (thrips, etc), then I agree that the soil should be discarded or add to the compost pile to "cook" it. If the plant is perfectly fine and you just need to transplant it to a bigger pot, reuse the oil soil mix will help reduce the transplant shock. Luckily, succulents are very resilient, but if you care for multiple different species, this is a good tip. The second point would be succulent soil mix, which has a very high percentage of inorganic amendments (perlite, pumice, vermiculite, fertilizer, sand, etc), is a poor host for pathogens, and very expensive to replace. You can wash the dirt off them and use steam, bake, or sun bake method to sterilize.
