Hi Ana, nice video, thanks for sharing! Btw besides overwatering, I find that another common reason for splitting can be that a fertilizer which is unsuitable for cacti was used... as most slow growing cacti do require special cactus fertilizers - these have a much lower concentration of the N (nitrogen) component than e.g. most standard fertilizers for green-leafed flowering plants have. So in my experience, "overfeeding" with a N-rich fertlizer also commonly results in splitting.

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

That is very true! Too much love is also not good for our cacti. 😉

@cactusjoe 2 года назад

@@CactusCaffeine haha, that is sooo true, Ana!! Have a wonderful day, take care and wishing you lot's of cactus blooms & happy growing!

@newmanmansell760 2 года назад

Oh, yes, I get cacti splits after the winter when my cacti are dry and the epidermis is really hard. 😅I haven't ever applied anything to splits, they heal up even in humid weather here. Just make sure to keep them away from any rain. Thanks for the video🙏🌟I enjoyed watching

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing your experience as well!

@desertplantsofavalon 2 года назад

FANTASTIC advice and video Ana, I have had a few cactus that have cracked open due to taking up too must water too fast, some of my Lophs can be prone to this too, its so good that it rarely will harm the cactus and callus's over, I have had to take it slow with watering again with my cacti when I started back up watering again last week after the heatwave to prevent a lot of them splitting open, thanks so much for sharing this wonderful video and tips Ana, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and CACTUS POWER to Las Vegas for a wonderful Wednesday ahead XXXX

@sonoranoasis3012 2 года назад

I fertilized my echinopsis with tomato fertilizer in March, then several days later it sucked up so much water it split. Lesson learned, no tomato fertilizer on that plant.

I had my gymno horstii split and it freaked me out. Turns out it absorbed too much rain after I put it out in my balcony. Thank you so much for this video. I thought my cactus was going to die 😅

@CactusCaffeine Год назад

I’m glad this video was useful to you. Hope your gymno is ok. Keep it dry and protected for now until it heals.

@veralindqvist3944 Год назад

@@CactusCaffeine Thank you for the wonderful tips! I will keep it dry and put some cinnamon powder on the cut. More power to you and your channel! ♥️♥️♥️

@morrisparkintheozarks6831 2 года назад

Very sound advice Ana!! Yes, I've had this happen before also. Lophophora are very prone to this condition. Especially after a long dry winter in my greenhouse. Mine happened in the spring after giving them a bit too much for the first drink. I would rather use cinnamon also !! I know we have to use chemicals for certain things like bugs & fungus, but if I have a choice of a natural cure that works as well as cinnamon does, I will go with it . After learning about this from Lyn and yourself, I've had great results with it!!! It completely cured my Blossfeldia when it started to rot. Just cleaned out the bad tissue and powdered it with cinnamon and the results were fantastic!! Even helped dry and pull it back together!! And it was a huge spot!! Helped cure Debs caudiciform ficus!! One of the major large roots had rotted from poor potting at Walmart, or rather the growers. Ihad to cut it off and dig out the rot. Left a knot hole but I put cinnamon in it and it's doing well!!! Like Aloe for plants!! Thanks Ana!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, out to Las Vegas, have a wonderful evening!!! Peace, Love, Plants!!!✌💖🌵🌺🌴🌻🌹🌳🌷🌲🏵🌿😃👍

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

Oh, I just learned from you and Daz that Lophophora is prone to splitting. I better be careful. Yaye for cinnamon. It’s cheap, it smells good and I can use it in my coffee, too! 😁😉 I remember your Blossfeldia that rotted from the top. Good to hear that it healed well. 👍🏼

@MauComposer 2 года назад

Lovely video as always, Ana. As for me a few months ago I bought an Astrophytum Ornatum on line and it came with a split, not a big deal, roots are ok and it looks great overall. By the way I love Ferocactus Glauscescens (I have 3) and I wonder if you in near future could show us all your ferocactus.

@cactusandfriends_by_vane 2 года назад

Very interesting Ana👌, I've had some spliting last spring due to the big rains we had. But as you show here everything healed and kept growing. I will be more carefull with this in the future. Have a great day!💞

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

Oh. Sorry to hear you had some splits on your cacti. Good to hear that they healed. Thankfully, a split is just cosmetics, nothing serious.

@Cactimania 2 года назад

Another informative video, Ana. I’ve had this happen a few times, especially with Lophs. I’ll need to be careful on my next watering as most plants have gone over two weeks without a drink and we’re still in drought conditions here with no signs of rain anytime soon. Thank you for sharing with us as always, Ana. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌸🌺🌼🏜☕️

@CactusCove 2 года назад

Enjoyed the video Ana 😁 Also some epidermis on certain cactus is more prone to splitting if they are harder skinned, like my Astrophytum onzuka, which has a harder epidermis than other Astrophytum and it needs careful watering otherwise they will abruptly split...apparently 😬😄👍🏻🌵

One of my giant 20 inch golden barrels split. Fatal and I don't expect for it to survive.

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

@Robert_A_Keyboards4948 5 месяцев назад

Wow! It must be nice to live somewhere hot where the cactus can grow outside! Of course I would not like the blazing heat! Is you cactus soil material pon? It looks like it or what is it they are all growing so well! I only have a few as houseplants! Informative information!

@BelgianSpeedcuber 2 года назад

Hi Anna Thanks for all the informative videos! I have a question: how do you keep up which cactus/plant you watered and which ones not? Do you just keep up with how it looks? Or do you have a calendar that you mark?

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

I try to water my plants all at the same time. Sometimes, I would water them by sections in my yard. This is why I try to keep most of them in terracotta pots so they all dry out at the same time and I don’t have to keep track of a schedule for each plant. 😀 I keep a calendar (when I remember) for when I watered the sections during the week. 😉

@annacaucci7644 2 года назад

@carlacarstensen5847 2 года назад

Do you have any indoor cactus? Im sorry if you have discussed this before, I am new to your channel.

@CactusCaffeine 2 года назад

I do not have any cactus that stays indoors permanently. But I do bring some in for the summer (my jungle cacti). During winter when we get freeze, I bring the tender ones inside. But these are all seasonal.
