Thank you - so glad i could help 💚 Yeah, i never cared much for the super gritty mix- it stresses the plants too much, though, i can see a use for it in particularly wet climates. Good to hear your succulents are growing well now 🙂

Aww, thank you so much 💚💚💚

Thank you- so glad it was useful ☺💚

Thank you 🙂💚

You’re most welcome 🙂🌵💚

Yes, that is correct. The large ones are specific cultivars. Some succulents have a maximum size of about 6cm (2inch) while others can grow into a literal tree. I have a couple of videos that may help. They are older videos, so pls excuse the poor quality 🙈 I will be making an updated version of these in about a month or so. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9yRktmJsNC5nIU.htmlsi=sZUc2wc7rOPGKSNw kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e9OdgZBzlsnGpKM.htmlsi=Z3J_-LbkBUq9kkrU Here's a another few vids i made on species and cultivars that grow large: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fch2i6eVlrPDaYk.htmlsi=f-f-WSqvciIO3lHW kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mM1nlLeYq7beZ58.htmlsi=u-gaznydcDHdKC7L kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7WTZspmyb3ej4U.htmlsi=l2fU0Vgr1DoMV0IW I guess you're right with ordering online. It is the best way of getting unusual succulents. You can also try and see if there is a nursery nearby you that specialises in succulents :)

Newly repotted succulent plants should not be watered and plants need semi shade for a few days, then gradually increase the light/sun.

I use a slow release for succulents with NPK ratio 5-5-7. But you’ll be fine with something like 10-10-10 which is a good all round fertilizer and readily available. Succulents will handle a few different ratios but a fairly low Nitrogen is preferable. They come in a few colours- the colour doesn’t matter. Hope this helps ☺️

It's called Echeveria Katella though there are a few other cultivars that look like cabbages :) Some propagate from leaf but the best way is to propagate the pups once they are big enough. Hope this helps :)

Great tip- thanks! 🙂 I used to use it in the garden but not in potted succulents. I think i'll do a video experiment to demonstrate how much it promotes growth vs just ordinary potting mix 😁🌵

In my experience- no. Deeper pots=bigger plant overall. I mean, it is true that in bigger, deeper pots succulents (and any other plant) will produce more roots BUT, as a result of the plant having the ability to grow more roots, it will also grow more leaves that will be bigger. In shallow pots the plant will grow slower and the leaves will be smaller. Bonsai are a great example- they can live in shallow pots (with a lots & lots of TLC) but they are super slow to grow and produce very few new leaves. I'll make a video on this :)

Just thought of a video (link below) i made recently that has the perfect example of plants that are the same age but one was kept in a small/shallow pot while other got repotted into bigger, deeper pot. The difference in growth is pretty staggering kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y5aEi5N7ptTFioU.html

Ahhh, yes you’re right- not sure what i was thinking there 😅
