HELLO LUSHGARDENER 🙋🏻‍♀🙋🏻‍♀🙋🏻‍♀ A THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME A WHILE BACK AGO WITH PERLITE. I PLANTED A SEMPERVIVUM IN ABOUT 50 % PERLITE AND THE REST WAS DIRT AND HUMUS. I LEFT THE POT OUTSIDE, WELL THERE WAS A BIG WIND STORM AND WHEN I WENT TO WATER IT THE NEXT DAY , THE SEMPERVIVUM WAS BLOWN OUT OF THE POT AND WAS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND 😂😂😂

@LushGardener 2 года назад

oh no must be so heartbreaking to see a succulent lost yes at time the wind can actually be crazy I have had my green net fly off to someone else’s property 😂

yes probably you can keep a stem cutting to air root ..but growing only in perlite bad idea 😁🪴

My mix is 40% succulent/cactus soil, 30% perlite, 30% poultry grit. I put in a plastic bin and mix well. Fill pot with soil, top off final layer with succulent soil and then top off with granite....works great.

@LushGardener 2 года назад

oh wow that sounds like the perfect mix for succulents …yes you have used all the required ingredients….wishing you all the best …m sure the succulents are loving it 🙂🌿

@thefireking5729 Год назад

Thank you !I been using a lot perlite lately.. It's like $6 bucks a bag so it's not so expensive but I'm definitely going to save a lot more now

@LushGardener Год назад

yes that will work out really well and you will have a lot of spare perlite :) ....perlite above the root area is not needed we need it beneath

@ellietobe 2 года назад

I wouldn’t recommend using just a soil mixture without some kind of drainage material mixed in even with the perlite beneath the soil because if you do not have the right consistency the surface of the soil could harden. Perlite is good in small amounts throughout the mixture but succulents really need more mineral type amendments added to the organic soil components. Some use clay, lava gravel, zeolite, and other minerals that are available in mixtures that can be used alone or added to your organic materials. Even with bottom watering, if your succulents are outside and being exposed to rain the surface could harden without good drainage material throughout the soil. That can effect your pups that are trying to reach the surface. Anyone who waters from the top could have real issues as well. Roots just do not like to be held captive in hard soil.

@LushGardener 2 года назад

Hahah yes that’s exactly what happened 🤣🤣

@generalawareness101 Год назад

I lost everything this year due to root rot, then a leaf fungus finished off what the rot didn't. I just can't find a potting mix that drains well even if 50/50 potting mix and perlite. What would you suggest, and where to find it?

@jane1385 9 месяцев назад

@@generalawareness101 have you found anything? I have the same problem all of a sudden. Killing plants that we’re 10 & 20 years old. I need a super light soil.

@generalawareness101 9 месяцев назад

Absolutely nothing. I even have some hen and chicks that I made the mix myself (according to you tubers) and they decided to croak. I hope they don't, but this soil issue is a severe one for me.@@jane1385

Can I grow rose as well with soil mix with some perlite??

@LushGardener Год назад

if the soil for rose plant is getting compact yes you can use 5-10 percent.. also remember rose plant is a heavy feeder so ensure your give organic rich soil for rose plant with good morning direct sun 5-6 hours ..do check this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EFh1gVC2-aw.html

Is cocopeat not essential for scculent soil.

@LushGardener Год назад

it’s depends..but I don’t use as it retains a lot of moisture …especially for tropical locations not ideal … m from tropical place so it’s rains alot and using cocopeat can be fatal for succulents. where are u from ?

@betsybarnicle8016 Год назад

I use cocopeat for vegetable seed starter. It keeps the fungus gnats at bay.

@sherri54 6 месяцев назад

i use perlite to propogate

@LushGardener 6 месяцев назад

yes that works well too

@newportnelson Год назад

Why not put perlite at the bottom instead, to provide better drainage/when the plant starts rootballing, it provides the most oxygen at the point where the most roots will be It's also better because you can then use this method to autowater from the bottom; the perlite will passively wick from the bottom towards the top of the plant preventing perlite from ever moving from the overly-vigorous top-watering

@LushGardener Год назад

yes that can be done ..but there are chances not always the perlite can break down further and clog the drain but this ca be done with pumice ..Pumice has a low rate of breaking down..oh yes bottom watering will work fantastic

@macsan1234 Год назад

Can it be added to premade potting mix?

@LushGardener Год назад

yes :)... perlite or pumice can always be added ...but if you have an option to chose or if you're about to purchase go for pumice thats is much better

@@LushGardener another question if i may. I have started growing flowering vines in pots in NCR. Most of the vines are coming from pune in red sand . Some of the vines i ordered are mandavilla, thunbergia white, mexican coral vine, sandpaper vine and others. Some orders reach after 6 days in transit and some in 2-3 days. My ques is 1) do i immediately repot the ones spending more time in transit to avoid shock twice ? 2) how much of the red sand rootball can i or should i remove? 3) when repotting to a bigger pot and adding potting mix in a 12 inch top and 9 inch high pot how much perlite do i add. Do i add below the roots? Pls advise as this red sand is a pain

@LushGardener Год назад

ok I think you are talking about the read clay soil ….you can repot the next day or immediately I have felt repotting the next day is better … m not sure how big the plant is so use the pots accordingly….not to large add perlite to the mid level or near the root area …ideally regular plants have more thicker and stronger roots compared to succulents so it’s ok … regarding cleaning of the root ball complete cleaning is not needed.. you can just loosen the root ball slightly … yes red soil is very alkaline….most flowering plants need slightly acidic soil so adding of organic matter will help ….but don’t add fertiliser immediately wait atleast for couple of weeks let the plant Settle… shock will happen there not much we can do most plants can handle shock they just drop few leaves depends on the plant how healthy it is .. as you are from Delhi avoid purchasing flowering plants online especially when the summer are already here …it’s makes plants difficult to adjust local purchase is best in summer …wishing you all the best for foliage and flowering plants you can check my foliage channel ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1wB-dooYPdU.html

@@LushGardener hi . Thk u for ur prompt reply. i get plants online as they are not available in local nurseries. Most of these plants have basic stems and are around 5-6 inches tall. I did not get the part about perlite. 1)Do we use it with a premade potting mix during repotting and If yes how much? 2) some online plants take almost 6days to reach so isnt it advisable to repot immediately to avoid double stress? 3) if we can use perlite in fresh plants when repotting do we do it at the top or below a layer of soil below the roots? Thanks
