Another two Lophophora Cacti beautifully repotted! You make it seem very easy to repot Lyn! I used to think that you have to change the old soil when repotting! Thanks for sharing! Sending you Lyn and Hans lots of love and wish you a wonderful evening!

Beautiful lophophoras. usually i'm a Gymnocalycium type. i love your video. this is different from what i normally do. when i'm re pot my cactus. i would break those dry soil out. trim a bit of that root. let it callus then pot up. it can't be such a pain when have re pot more than 10 plant. i found is better is good for a new plant that had been new purchase to prevent from the disease and insect. i think i will try your way with my some of plant and see it might save me time. thank you for you video. is very helpful. sorry for my grammar. i lived in Thailand. now my collection is start to expand out of the Gymnocalycium after i watched your video. :)

I have 5 peyotes grown from seed since Apr. 21 ( in a herringjar) originally it was 10 seeds had 7 sprouts but the year before last magpies had a go at them and hacked to death a couple. The rest seem to survive well, but I think they could do w/ a repotting and new soil. They have been watered very sparsely in long dark winters in the north and are only about 1 cm diameter...maybe 1.5 for the bigger ones. Would it be wise to give them very deep pot I wonder...I guess I could still keep them together if the pot is wide enough. They still have space between each other.

@desertplantsofavalon 2 ай бұрын

Thats wonderful you have 5 seedlings of these amazing Cacti, its best to avoid planting them into a deep pot as they can be rot prone when planted in pots that are too deep, I would keep them in the same pot for longer until they reach around 2 cms diameter and then pot them into a wider but shallow bowl pot, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Tuesday XXXX

I had a huge L. caeospitosa a few years back, but it got a fugus while I was on holiday and was all mushy slime when I got home heartbreaking none the less to lose a nearly 40 year old specimen.

Cool vid ! They look amazing! I always wonder how spider mites can live on plants that contain these alkaloids . Last year i had those spider-buggers on my Brugmansia and they contain scopolamine and atropine and are quite toxic, how is it that those spider mites stil are able to see straight and walk across the plant, they should be tripping their balls off! Lol! Best of luck with the house-hunt guys!

@Phyto. 2 жыл бұрын

These pests typically have biochemical pathways in the gut to enzymatically digest the toxins. Some can even incorporate the toxins into their own bodies, making them unappealing or possibly even deadly to predators.

believe it or not the sandy soil where I live is ideal, I use pretty much straight sand with no organic matter. keep my cactus out side under a tree, other cactus go out in the full sun. They also like a good dry out. our climate is dry so things are different here.

Looking back at this vid, how do you deal with spider mites? For me thiacloprid was most definitely /not/ the solution! Isopropanol with essential oils was better. Greetings to you from Germany!

Spider mites are such a pain, I used neem oil and dabbed the alcohol on them using a soft brush and also sprayed them with rainwater every day and it seemed to do the trick but spider mites can be a real pain to get rid of, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you an abundance of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from right across the Emerald Isle to Germany for a fantastic Tuesday XXXX

Thanks for reminding me, regular water misting really helped get rid of them. I added the IPA with essential oils at about 5% to the misting water to make a milky suspension. This was on Trichocereus, which of course LOVE regular misting!

I still find low doses of peroxide to be beneficial.... although it kills most micro nutrients, I find the added oxygen during watering to far surpass any reason to add set micro nutrients! I feed my buttons every fall....other than that, each watering is nothing more than a oxygen boost

Hey Lyn, do you know where someone in the States might be able to find a cutting of peyote without getting into trouble with the police? I'd love to try growing one but I think they're illegal because people use them for their mescaline. :(

@desertplantsofavalon 7 жыл бұрын

Hi Levy :-) I think that most if not all of the states have banned the growing of Lophophora now which is sad as they are such a wonderful plant to grow, I would think it would be illegal to own one in the states :-( so sorry I can't be of much help, thanks so much for watching and have a fantastic day XXXX

No, L. diffusa is a different species. The caespitosa is just a variety of L. williamsii, i.e. Lophophora williamsii var. caespitosa. "caespitose" is a botanical term meaning "growing in clumps/tufts".
