Hope everyone is having a good weekend, me and my boyfrie...
Hope everyone is having a good weekend, me and my boyfriend spent most of the day doing chores & running errands. We had to get a new tire after having a flat, go grocery shopping, & power washed the side walk and front porch. 😅 I did lots of plant chores; drilled a hole in my new pot, did some propagation trays, bottled my rain water for the plants, & took some pictures for Greg! Now to relax & make my daily post lol.
Here’s some photos from today 🌱

2. Graptoveria ‘Opalina’
3. Five Stamen Graptopetalum
4. Sedeveria ‘Dark Elf’
5. Echeveria ‘Green Pearl’

10” pot with drainage
Last watered 1 month ago

@MariansOasis thank you! Yes very busy indeed, & thank you, used to have a hummingbird one but I lost it. Sorry I didn’t spell check beforehand lol.
@HappyPlantMama I use miracle grow succulent soil, with added perlite for drainage/grit. I use dynamite granular slow release fertilizer from Home Depot mixed in
@GrandeeRamshorn right 🤩 she’s a big gal ! My secret is lots of light, rain water, and slow release fertilizer mixed in with a well draining soil!
@DailyDose_OfLee well draining soil, and lots of light depending on the succulent… also your pot ALWAYS should have drainage and if you can put it in a teracotta/pourous pot it will thrive better then if not. Also a good rule of thumb is to underwater rather than to overwater, you can save it from a lack of water rather than overwatering.
@DailyDose_OfLee you can remove from your pot whenever you are ready, but just make sure you have the things you need to give it a good chance to thrive after repotting, also don’t water it as soon as you repot it, give it about a day or three to adapt to its new home.
Example: well draining dirt, teracotta/pourous pot W/ drainage, and a good light source. South facing window would be could or if you have a shaded porch where it can get part sun part shade. Do you have a picture of your succulent? I might be able to help you better if I know what type it is. 🤗

@DailyDose_OfLee that’s okay, just don’t water it anymore until it is fully dry/ two weeks is a good rule of thumb/ or when the leaves are slightly wrinkly or less firm. Also that’s a good pot for it, I have the same pot in small/medium & large and I love them! So cute
@TidyTigerpear wonderful! I will be sure not to water until dry. I found them at Walmart for $1.50 and literally said, who know I may need them one day. 💪🏾💪🏾
@DailyDose_OfLee @TidyTigerpear advice is great.
For the soil, I would recommend adding perlite to your succulent or cactus soil. The mix is 1 part soil, 2 parts perlite…wear a dust mask 😷whenever working with Perlite, your lungs 🫁 will thank you ❤️
