50-60% relative humidity is quite high. For cactus aim for 40% and below. For true desert cacti, 20% would be ideal. Consider adding a small fan. It helps limit the impact of high humidity. Air circulation also plays an important role in nutrient uptake, especially calcium.

@melanieg.9092 2 месяца назад

Oh, interesting bit about the calcium uptake!

I read that root mealies tend to travel up to the stems n up. I did hydrogen peroxide on mine and they did come back/multiplied so fast that I was unable to get rid of them fully. Absolutely terrified of root mealies now😵‍💫 Loving how your cacti cabinet is looking now😍

@heatherstephens9295 2 месяца назад

Diatomaceous earth around the roots is a saviour. I also sprinkle it on top of all my pots outside & indoor plants especially Hoya. By doing this I have had no pest problems this season (I live in New Zealand) last year was heartbreaking with mealys & spider mites. Give it a try - nothing to loose 👍

Wow so cool this video came out today, in my sons homeschool lessons he’s to take care of a cactus since we’ve got done learning about the desert biome 👍

18:05 you can also use the extra zeolite, vermiculite and perlite to stretch your pon if you need to get rid of it! ❤ 32:12 it turned out amazing! The supplies are more hidden and the trays are necessary, imo, since the pots are so small. I do the same thing with mine because I’d be knocking them all over. lol

Hi Emma! Thank you for the video and for your hyrogenperoxide explanation! I wasn't quite sure how to use it beside the treatment of root rot

@ThePattiable 2 месяца назад

The cabinet updare turned out AMAZING! I absolutely love how it looks!

@GoodGrowing 2 месяца назад

thanks! me too! I think having the variegation in heights & sizes really helps the vibe!

@kathylovejoy2569 2 месяца назад

Love seeing more on the cactus. Your Cabinet turned out lovely. That shelf sure made a difference. Hope you got those Mealy bugs. They are awful to try and get rid of. Good Luck.

@GoodGrowing Месяц назад

naw thanks! yeah I'm super happy with the addition of the shelf!

The cabinet update is great 👍 Beautiful shelf 😀🇨🇦

It's fun to see someone else with their cacti in a cabinet! Used an akerbar for mine over the winter (Safe from pets) and am hoping to upsize come next winter. Outside for the summer prickly friends!

@heatherstephens9295 2 месяца назад

Diatomaceous earth around the roots or sprinkle on top of the potting mix 👍

@GoodGrowing Месяц назад

ooh good thought! thanks

Your cabinet looks SO GOOD! And alas! I will not be on the call this Sunday (I will be traveling home from the Twin Cities).

@hithere2468 2 месяца назад

Maybe I missed this on the last video, but did you try putting a root mealie in hydrogen peroxide to see what happens? I wouldn't think it would do much beyond cleaning the bugs (same as with fungus gnat larvae.) I wouldn't expect it to kill anything beyond fungus. I know we saw some floating bugs there at the end, but I'm wondering if that was due to the hydrogen peroxide specifically or whether it's them drowning in any liquid. I think an alcohol solution would kill them outright (all life stages.)

lol I was doing the same thing this morning and got a whole hand full of mini thorns 🤣😭

@marcelagarnica7076 2 месяца назад

Love the cactus content lately! 🎉 what grow light do you use for your cacti?

@latanyamckenzie277 2 месяца назад

It looks reall n8ce.

@thkimana 2 месяца назад

Do you also keep a water reservoir in your cacti semihydro or just watering them once a month?

@The.third_eye 2 месяца назад

Hello 🍀

@jessicapetrin1655 2 месяца назад

Don’t know if you have Pure Crop One or if it’s even available in the EU. But, if it is, you should give it a try. It’s been a game changer for many with root mealies and also good for other pests, bacteria etc.

@margimorris7360 2 месяца назад

Hi Jessica. I have looked at this product. I also grow in semi Hydro and was wondering how you use it. Do you add it to your fertiliser?

@jessicapetrin1655 2 месяца назад

It is added to your water. You can either water it in or do a soak :)

Is your semi hydro from soil ninja?

@GoodGrowing 2 месяца назад

It is!

@solarwinds- Месяц назад

I'm confused. Did you say you wouldn't normally hydrogen peroxide if they were not in soil? Am I missing something? They look like they are all in soil.

@GoodGrowing Месяц назад

They’re all in semi hydro substrate which is non-organic so won’t have any microbiome within it

@Honeybadger456 2 месяца назад

What shops do you recommend getting cacti and succulents from? Love your collection!

@jinyan3297 2 месяца назад

Why cactus need a cabinet? High humidity?

@beeng77 2 месяца назад

The light that Emma has in that cabinet is very strong which did not work well with her aroids & hoyas but the cacti succulent seems to love it. Plus I dont think her cabinet is weatherproofed as her house is already quite humid. I have the same light too and the aroids have to be quite far away for it to not burn the foliage
