CactusClique Join the Community #Monstera #NewGrowth #FicusGang #HappyPlants #Pothos #GrowLights New Popular @DreamMachine · 6h Good morning Wednesday #TheWateringHole 🫶🌿🌤️ How is everyone doing in their neck of the woods? I, like quite a number of #greggers , have some pests in my indoor collection. Broad mites. (Booo hiss!!) They are minuscule, to a lot of people they are microscopic, 1/4 of a millimeter 🤏 small , but I can see them. They look like little dust specks moving around without magnification. They are notoriously hard to contain because of their size. Not only can they come in on a plant, they are so small they can float on a breeze through a window screen. 🦋🐝 How did I find them? I had a few very strange new leaves on two hoyas. They curled in on themselves, lost their shiny luster, appeared grey, and fell off (with my tweezer into a baggie) at a mere touch. I shall post those leaves. You can treat with neem, although it is a lot of labor involved, so this time and with the knowledgeable advice of @MusicalRedmint Susann, I am going PREDATORY MITES. This website DMV Beneficials is amazing. https:// They are a US-based service that offers free consultations to figure out what you’re dealing with and what would be the best predatory bug to help. If you have a pest situation and are feeling a little overwhelmed, reach out to them, they help people all over the states get connected with suppliers of good bugs. They also keep your budget in mind. And it seems like prices are not as bad as they used to be! I may be able to contain my pest issue for less than $50 😮💨😮💨. And if you are in another country, I highly encourage you to look around for beneficial suppliers near you 🦋🐞 And if you’re in Oregon or Washington, here is the supplier I will most likely be going with. You can check out their prices, only about $1 per sachet! https:// The mites I’m selecting are also microscopic, so you don’t have to see them in your house if that freaks you out. (I shall be bringing out my microscope though, and watching with interest on the sidelines because I am a grade A Weirdo. ) 🚩🍿🥳📣🙌👏 Well, how’s everyone else doing today? 😜😂 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Very easy cactus to take care of. I got this from my neighbor. The original plant that this was propagated off of has been in his family since he was a child. My neighbor is well into his late 70s. He had this plant 2 years before he gave it to me. I water her every 2 weeks and boy has she grown in these last two months since I put her outside. #cactusclique #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #newgrowth #cactus #succulent #succulentsquad #succulentlove #succulents 5 4 Comments @HummingbirdMint · 5d #SandDollarCactus my sand dollar cactus is blooming for the first time!

Have any planty plans for today? I hope it includes NOT putting perlite in a 415° oven 🥴 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

We are on #pedunclewatch !!! 😱🥳🤩 Since I got into hoyas last summer, I’ve only had the start and subsequent blasting of a couple peduncles on one hoya, my crassipetiolata, but it was just the beginning of winter, and he got too cold and gave up on them. 🥶😔 Who’s the contender this time? My sweet Hoya ‘Bella,’ whom I got only last month, as a cutting in perlite, from my hoya lady on FB marketplace!! Bella is STILL in that cup of perlite, I didn’t get a chance to pot her up yet, and she has 3, count em’ THREE pedunkadunks starting 😱😮💨🤯🤩 As my photos will be peduncles, I’ll add my bountiful morning’s strawberry 🍓 harvest photo in the comments, along with my Mother’s Day snapdragon bloom, and my dahlias (not in bloom yet). How’s everyone’s Monday? Any blooms or new growth that you’re excited about? Any struggling? This is my Saturday, but if it’s your actual Monday, I wish you a very good and planty week 😘🌿✨ ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

We all know in Walmart they sell moon cactus grafts. A graft is when they put a plant into another plant. So they put a variegated moon cactus and hylocereus or dragon fruit tree stems. Gymnocalycium is my favorite cactus because of the flowers, but I never knew it was called moon cactus. Look I got the mom grafted cactus!! Also look how much I got! #HappyPlants #CactusClique #cactusaddiction @Cactus_Jasmine @CutePolypremum @DaringColtsfoot @HoyaMamma85 @MariansOasis @princesspitstop @HoyaUniqua 5 3 Comments @AwesomePlants · 2w If you are an #Ariocarpus fan, you don't want to miss my #CactusClique and #SucculentSquad dealer's live tonight!!

Got this medusa's head cactus as a rescue just over a year ago. She came with a mealy bug 🤢 the exact same colour as her downy stalks so I didn't see it at first and she lost two stalks before I removed it. The mealy bug was so gross! (I fed it to one of my carnivorous plants 😁) I'm so very thrilled to see she's making a comeback and just had to share. #newgrowth #newgrowthday #cactus #cactusclique #weirdplants #astrophytumcaputmedusae #medusasheadcactus #greggang #plantfriendsarethebestfriends #ballondusoleil 6 1 Comments @planthoe40 · 3w My new plant 🪴 shelves i got from Amazon for $13. No hardware came with them, but i have a ton of drywall screws laying around. A couple other new plants and one of my hoyas trying to bloom. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #cactusclique #hoyahangout 4 4 Comments @stephonicle · 3w Just found out there's a succulent expo coming to town next month! Eeek! 😱 If anyone else in the Bay Area is interested in attending, let me know! It's at the county fair building here in San Francisco and runs Friday June 19th through Sunday June 21st. Admission is free, and they also have various volunteer slots available (I signed up to volunteer in the "Plant Hotel" for a few hours on Sunday 🤓). They'll have 40+ vendors, many of whom are selling rare or unusual succulents & cacti you can't find in stores. There's also live demonstrations, expert advice, and more. #SucculentSquad #CactusClique #SucculentLove #SucculentExpo2026 #SanFrancisco 9 1 Comments @DreamMachine · 4w Hello my loves 🫶🌿 Happy Tuesday #TheWateringHole , or should I say, happy #untidytuesday 😏 (It’s ALWAYS #untidytuesday at my house, ha ha ha! 😂😄…🥺😭😭 ) It’s been hot here, the last few days (80° F 🥵) and we are all looking forward to rain 🌧️ ☔️ tomorrow and in the 60°’s again, ahhh 🧘♀️. Plus that means I might not have to water anything outside 🤞🤞 I’ve been putzing around, doing planty chores, and checking on all my props from @IdPlantThat 🥰 Practically EVERYONE has been doing great 🙌 My new favorite method of propagating!: Perlite + a ziplock bag + my own hot air 🌬️ I live in a cool, wet climate, as most of you know already, and I had horrible luck with sphag. It always molds 🦠 instantly, or at least, within 12 hours 😵💫 I love this perlite + bag method because it is not inducive to mold growth, roots grown in perlite are more like soil roots already, and each bag is its own humidity box AND quarantine station! How are you all doing today? What’s your favorite prop method? 🥰🥱🫶 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?
