Really amazed when a guy has passion for plants like cacti.I am really a cacti lover and collector as well💗

Thank you for your video!! I love that you also place crystal's in your pots!!

Thank you iam a cacti and succulents enthusiast and I love love your collection. Astrophytums and gymnocalyciums are my favorite ❤

You have some awesome cactus, and we are happy to look at your mug ☺️😉

Very informative! And I just love looking at your collection and how they are all neatly lined up.

Best info on watering ever. Thank you very much. Always look forward to your videos

Great info as always. As you say, it’s about getting to know your plants individually and learning their needs just by how they look and taking your climate, the potting medium etc, into consideration also. Awesome video and probably the best I’ve seen on cacti watering 👍 Your collection is stunning also 👌

Love your voice, near cried when you said cute as a button! My cacti are gonna be so happy

Learned a lot. Thanks. I used to water every Friday.

Allways nice to see your collection! I also water when i have the feeling the plants need it. Its hard to put in words but as a collector you just get to know when to water by experience, just like you say some take more some less.

Super cute!! The cactus are cute too.

Very well done! Huge help for sure!

Hermoso cada uno de ellos 😍😍 Saludos desde El SALVADOR BENDICIONES 🤗

Great collection. Thanks for info. 😊

Very good information thanks... I usually water my cacti in clay pots once every week or 2 weeks depending on how dry my house is

This was so incredibly helpful

I see you have a great cacti growing medium and you know your soil😆👌💖I have had rot issues. Our summer monsoon season a few years ago rotted my Astrophytums. They don't do well here. In Japan we have very dry and sunny winters with a great difference between day and night temperatures. The summer is wet, humid and extremely hot. From August we get a drier hot summer and winters are very dry with temperatures below -5℃ at night and day temperatures about 10/12℃.

I come from Japan and summers have high humidity and many rainy days. I water with a 'spritz' every 3 weeks or so because the air has a lot of moisture in the air. In Autumn through winter the days are sunny, the nights freezing and low humidity. I water every 2nd to 3rd week. For those in dry, low humidity summer areas then water well when dry, even ever week is fine, And if winters are wet and rainy then only 'spritz water' on days that are sunny and the humidity is lower than 40%. Never let a cacti get that dry that the roots desiccate. That can happen in low humidity and dry cold or hot conditions. A cacti will have a battle coming back from that and if it does grow new roots, it will take a year of recovery. To water a cacti with desiccated roots can make fungi and rot from the decomposition of the dead roots.

Plants look great!

Impressive cacti collections. Thank you for this video. Been captivated by the sheer beauty of cacti, especially the rounded shapes, since I was very young. But only recently I just begun collecting. 👍👍💐🤗🥰

Great information!!! Thanks

Love em😉

Great collection, love all your Gymno’s and Astro’s quite impressive. Nice informative video on watering by looks and not just watering for watering. Just awaiting my watering season here in AZ a couple weeks or so out before their 1st drinks after winter. Would love to see something on seedling waterings after out of the bag as well if your ever looking for content 😉

Very informative,like your video

super cute . I wish i can get this babies from you garden...

Great tutorial. I'm always worried if i should leave or water my Astrophytums. After watching this i wont worry too much about weekly watering from now on i'll happily go two weeks. Also i've recently bought two Gymnocalyciums, species unknown sadly but at least now i know there not rot prone as most websites would have you believe, i'll start a weekly routine of watering them depending on weather obviously.

Great collection congratulations. My favorites are the Chilean cactaceas

I’m super glad + Walker is making videos again🤩 Is the pumice just top dressing?

tumps up Bro.

This was very informative. I have a few astrophytum that have "pancaked" (flattened out). I live in the U.S. and we are about to enter spring. I feel like I need to water them but am afraid of the rotting issue. A few have shrunk at the base. Is this a sign of underwatering or overwatering? I would like to avoid pulling them out to check the roots if possible. They still firm though. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.

I now have nearly 100 cactus and succulents now I am going into my first winter I have bubble wrap my hot house and are going to set up a heater on frosty night just to keep the temperature up too around 5 degrees so I hope that will be sufficient.

Nice...

super❤️❤️❤️🌵🌵🌵

So glad I found your video! I just got my very first cactus, a Gymnocalycium Stenopleurum (I found that out only by quite a bit of research). Met him at the garden center thanks to his glorious little pink flower! As a complete newbie this video was the most helpful I've found out of the tons I've watched lately!! Could I ask you some quick questions?! How much sunlight (direct or indirect) do Gymnocalycium's really love? Right now I've got him by a Southwest facing window that gets nice direct morning sun and then indirect afternoon light, and I like to open the window often. Will he be happy in these conditions? And how often can I expect him to flower with the proper care? His flower died off not long after I had him home and I was afraid it was my fault, but I didn't know how long it would have lasted anyway. Do the flowers typically only last a few days in full bloom? Will I have to wait until next season or is there a chance he may yet sprout another this summer?

I have questions about spineless golden barrel. It's been removed from a mother plant. I have put rooting powder but not growing roots. It's been more than 2 weeks.

Thankyou just learnt a lot..

didnt know about being plump,and not,very useful info.

Profi :)

Wow!Your cactus collections is amazing! May I ask where you buy pumice in Victoria?I can only find scoria.Thanks a lot!

Hi 87 walker; really enjoy your informative videos. Also the collection containing some of my favs. A question: how do you treat cacti with a split? I have several Trichos with that issue. Also, being a musician i cannot "squeeze" my plants to test for water due to thorns. I use a meter but you suggest visual exam as well. I`ll give that a try. I have 117 music vids on You Tube, the most recent being "Bob Dylan & Joe Seddon-Hurricane Carter." Next comes some cactus videos. Australia is fantastic, the wildlife awesome. I`ve bred Womas and Jungle pythons which are quite rare here in the United States. I`ll check back for your advice on splitting. Best to you mate, Joe Seddon

ฉันอยากเห็นCactusที่แปลกของคุณ อยากเห็นแบบที่ประเทศไทยไม่มี I love Cactus 💕💕

Good info, I don’t have a lot of Cacti and I’m always worried about how much water.

Hi I notice you have crystals with some of the cactus. Do you have a reason, why some have them and some don’t? Or are you just spreading them all over randomly . Thank you

whoa, your collection is immense! And thanks for sharing the valuable info :) how many years it took to accumulate your plants?

Its January... I bought a notocactus with flower buds ( 4days ago at a local store)... so my question is when do I repot it, after it blooms? And should I water it... its very dry.

Great videos! I subbed with notifications! One thing I noticed though is you said bi-weekly is twice per week for you. Some people may be confused as generally bi-weekly means every other week, once per 2 weeks. So your bi-weekly watering would be 4 times in a 2 week period, where as someone watching would normally take bi-weekly as meaning once per two weeks. That could be a significant difference in watering frequency. Awesome collection by the way! I'm up to about 30 different varieties in my collection currently.

Hey beautiful collection! Thanks for the tips. I'm also an aspiring cacti collector in Aus. Would you sell any lophophora seedlings/cuttings at all. Ive found it hard to find. Was going to try to graft a few. Cheers!

Hey Walker! Great video! Since it’s winter time now in Australia, could you tell me what you do with the winter period? I have a astrophytum asterias and it’s looking a bit sad right now. Should I water him or is that usually how astrophytum asterias are during winter? Where they shrink a bit. I also have 2 gymnocalycium and I’ve been told to strictly not water them at all during the entire winter! Could you please tell me if that’s safe to do so? Cheers

Great video, what potting mix do you use for lophopora?

Hello I have a hedgehog I bought. Mamalaria. I bought I from a private person. My question is can they be plump on the bottom and when growing have a cone shaped top til it matures? Thank you

OOOOOYE

Can you use all purpose soil for cacti ? I purchased a big purple bag from B&Q and it was near the Cacti plants so I’m guessing that it’s ok? But I watered my cacti plants about 5days ago and the soil is slightly damp is this a worry for root rotting or will it be ok ?

How do you get rid of mealy bug

Hi, this is my first time watching your video. Loving your collection! I only have the one cactus and I'm trying to understand it. I haven't yet been able to figure out what kind it is. Could you please tell me the species/variety of your Parodia (with red thorns) at the back? It seems to look very similar to mine. I have googled different species of Parodia but none looked as close to mine in appearance as the one in this video. Thanks!

For someone who doesn't have your experience, would you say once a month watering would be ok without damaging them in the winter?

Can you give me complete list of cacti identification?

Can cactus grow well in greenhouses in summer ?or it must be put outside ?would the humidity in the greenhouse harm them ?thank you so much

Your earlier watering regime helped most of my plants make it through the winter without dying. Thank you very much. I still lost a 3 parodias though. They all shriveled and died.... and this affects parodias for the most part..Can you help me with this issue? Has this happened to any of your plants?

So, when they're squishy means they need more water?

do cacti grow faster the more often you water them, like say watering once a month vs only watering 3 times a year

some of my cacti, still look full of water and they had no water since mid September and we just getting to the watering time of the year in a few weeks

Audi RV stained glass Monday night q&a

is there a difference that you’ve noticed when growing cactus near crystals

maybe you should make a video when you watering them all
