Well done Daz!!! While you were pollinating with the brush, I was thinking ... on those little guys with no spines, you could... ok, your doing it!! Direct contact of the flowers!!! Great also on taking off the covers on the pots when they germinate. I've tried both ways, and it seems the seedlings of Euphorbias don't like the excess moisture like cactus do. I just keep em watered and they do great!!! Best of luck with them!!! I think most of your seed is good! Maybe the one symetrica will be good!!! Can't wait to see!!! Thanks for sharing Daz!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, to the UK and Singapore, have a wonderful day, Peace, Love, Plants!!!✌💖🌵🏵🌺🌿🌲🌻🌳🌹🌴🌷🪴😃👍
Thank you so much, Clyde 😊 Yeah but when I tried that pollination method all the top dressing fell out the pot! 😂 Really hope that one dark symmetrica seed germinates, but if I can get 50% germination on the obesa I’ll be happy. I think I need to track down a male symmetrica now! Thank you for watching and commenting as always my friend. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself to you and Deb 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
@@Cactimania Yeah, the one thing about Euphorbia seed, it can be kinda finicky. I've had where it looked like they were all good & only have a couple come up. On the other hand, I've had where they all come up good. I know they don't store very well. Not like cactus seeds where you can plant a bunch and get a bunch, most of the time anyway.
Am I the only one who suddenly thought of Mendelssohn’s wedding march when you used those veils…I mean the nets over the Euphorbias?😆 That tiny male E. obesa was definitely potent! Lucky dude! Kidding aside, another great video, Sweetheart! The close up shots were astounding. Thank you for your hard work and patience. This video took long to do. Hopefully the seeds germinate so that all those efforts would not go wasted. Always proud of your work, Sweetheart! ❤️🤗😘💚
Haha nope, I was thinking the same when I was putting them on the plants 😂 Very potent male lol. I doubt any of the pale symmetrica seeds will germinate, maybe a 50/50 chance with the darker seed. The obesa should be good, though. Even if I just get 50% germinate I’ll be happy 😊 Enjoyed watching with you as always babe. Thank you for all your love, support and encouragement ❤️🤗😘🌵❤️
Thank you so much, Claire 😊 Some have already germinated 😁 Thank you for watching and commenting, have a wonderful day and week from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌼🌸🏜
Wow! Incredible video, Daz! The close-up shots are unbelievable. That's so awesome that you take us from flower all the way to growing the seeds themselves.
Thank you so much, Jenny 😊 These are all in flower again so I’ll be able to pollinate once again and hopefully get more seeds. Some have already germinated but not as many as I’d like lol. Thank you for watching and commenting, have a wonderful day from Edith & myself and happy growing 🌵☀️🌺🌼🏜
So amazing Daz. Everything’s perfect on this video, your shots, explanation, demonstration, very well done. Complete video from pollination, harvesting to sowing, we are now looking forward for the result. The best as always. Thanks for sharing and hope you’re enjoying the sun. 🌵💚
Thank you so much, Kath 😊 Hopefully the obesa seeds germinate, don’t think any of the symmetrica seeds will, but you never know. Thank you for watching and commenting as always, Kath. Have a wonderful day and upcoming weekend from Edith & myself to you and Phil 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜
WOW Daz :-D this video is absolutely AWESOME and really incredible and detailed instructional video on How to pollinate Euphorbia Obesa and Symmetrica and really amazing close up in sharp macro filming, and the seed pods are fantastic, and such a fab idea with using the net to catch the seed explosion, its a shame with the Symmetrica seeds but fantastic news with the Obesa seeds, and we have learnt SO MUCH from watching this video and so looking forward to the update on the seed sowing, thanks so much Daz for sharing such an INCREDIBLE video, and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Edith tons of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to England and Singapore for a brilliant Thursday today XXXX
Thank you so much, Lyn 😊 Yeah bit of a shame with the symmetrica seeds, I think I need to try and find and male symmetrica lol. Hopefully the majority of the obesa seeds germinate, I’ll be happy if 50% come up. So happy you both enjoyed the video, thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself to you and Hans ❤️🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
My first time to watch a video from your channel. Really good and well-made. Plus I like how you incorporate Filipino words. Looking forward to the outcome of this germination.😊
Another fantastic video, Daz!!! 👏 Very informative and great step-by step explaining, thanks for sharing. Also, your macro photography as always is truly spectacular, really love it!!! Keeping my fingers crossed now for plenty of new and healthy plants on the way there, please keep us posted! 👍 Wishing you and Edith a great day, take care and happy growing! 🌵🌵🏵🌺🌻
Thank you so much, Joe 😊 Keeping my fingers crossed for the obesa seeds, but not expecting the symmetrica seeds to germinate. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting, have a wonderful day and weekend from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
Wonderful video...love the pollination process! It was all clearly seen as they were well shown closeup! These Euphorias are really beautiful, spineless cacti! Hope they all will germinate for you! Good luck! Thanks for sharing! Good evening to you Daz and Edith!
Thank you so much, Sylvia 😊 I doubt any of the symmetrica will germinate, possibly the one darker one, but we should be good with the obesa seeds. Thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful evening from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
Great video Daz, love how you show everything you did step by step. It's extremely helpful for a beginner! Close up videography was awesome as always. Hope the seeds germinate for you, I'm sure they will! Cheers
Thank you, much appreciated 😊 Don’t think the symmetrica seeds will germinate. There was some more pods on it today that fell off, same tan colour seeds inside. I broke some of them open and they were completely hollow inside. Hopefully the obesa seeds are good, though. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
Fabulous video Daz! I think it’s one of my favorite you’ve made. Sorry about the symmetrica seeds! I hope the one at least makes it. Excited about your obesa seeds. Thanks for this video. I believe my obesa is a male. I need to buy some more obesa in hopes I get a female. I hope you and Edith are having a great week🌵😂🌺🌷🌻💐🌸🍀
Thank you so much, Forsythia 😊 Yeah bit of a shame about the symmetrica seeds. I’ll probably have to track down a male symmetrica for pollinating, be a good experiment to do to see if they then set viable seeds. You shouldn’t have difficulty getting hold of a female obesa, obesa are more widely available now than they used to be. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and commenting, have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
Great and amazing video as always.Thanks for sharing tips and info in pollination.I only have one obesa and i think it is a female.I need to look a good male then hahahah
Thank you so much, Rhea ☺Haha yes you will have to find a partner for your obesa. Thank you for watching and commenting. Have a wonderful evening from Edith & myself 🌵☀🌼🌸🌺🏜
They look so pretty those euphorbias-the only type I've got hahahaha i think my obesa is a male. Thanks for explaining as I wasn't sure how to distinguish. As alwyas- interesting video, thanks for sharing your knowledge:)
Thank you so much, Magda 😊 Glad you were able to find out yours is possibly a male, now you need to find him a girlfriend 😂 Thank you for watching and commenting as always. Have a wonderful evening from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
How long do you keep the lid on for? And do you water the seeds once a week or just water once at the beginning and leave the lid closed until they germinate? Thanks 🙂
Leave the lid on until they germinate. After that the soil should be kept moist at all times. Taking the lid off just eliminates that constant 100% humidity environment which can rot them out. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌺🏜
Sure. You can send pictures of them to my social media or email. Links to those can be found in the video description. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌺🌼🏜
