    I've watched a bunch of grafting tutorials throughout this year as it was my first year grafting, and this video is one of the best I've seen. Kept everything nice and simple, which was a great refresher just to make sure I'm still doing things right and on track. Thanks for the video guys, and EAS is one of the few nurseries at the top of my bucket list to visit!

    Is there a way to force it out of dormancy? I live in Southeast Asia and it's full on summer here but mine just went dormant a week ago. Outer layer is brown already but not squishy yet. I grow it inside where it's not too hot though.

    Also you say in the video lithops go dormant in summer and shrivel, but spring back to life in winter *as theyre winter growers.* But your description has lithops in the *summer grower* category. So whats going on here?

    • @BOTANY_BASICS
      @BOTANY_BASICS 5 месяцев назад

      That was a typo! Good catch we fixed the description.

  • @risenfromyoutubesashesagai6302
    @risenfromyoutubesashesagai6302 6 месяцев назад

    So according to your list in the description, my wife's jade (crassula) and her zebra plant (haworthia) _are winter growers?!?!?!_ We live where winter would KILL these plants, as they come in during winter, but hit the porch (and warm sun) in the summer.... and that's WRONG?!?! Please, someone with experience answer me with this so we can provide the best life for these little green buddies.

    • @BOTANY_BASICS
      @BOTANY_BASICS 5 месяцев назад

      Your haworthia will definitely appreciate some shade in summer. However the jade plant is an exception to the rule, it is a summer growing crassula. I would still bring these inside if you have freezing temps in winter. Winter growers are able to grow in winter because the habitats they come from never reach freezing temperatures even in the dead of winter. So while summer temps in their habitat are too scorching and dry to foster growth, the winters are mild and moist, perfect for growing.

  • @CampCaudex

    Love seeing how people protect their plants from the cold. Where I live in Fl we rarely get freezes but do usually have a few nights where temps dip down to the mid 30s/40s. I am paranoid and take all my favorites inside. Luckily temps here usually rise at least to the low 50s the next day so most of my euphorbia survive with minimal damage below the recommended 50 min temps as long as the cold doesn't stick around. I also run into issues with O2 sensors shutting off my propane heater and found that leaving 1 window to my greenhouse open with a fan next to it pushing air towards the propane heater resolved the issue. Not the most cost effective solution as I kept the heater on high to compensate for the open window, but beats running out in the cold at 2 am lolol.

    Didnt it already have offsets? I guess I would lose the plant to rot, cutting it in half here in the south of New Zealand even with the sulphur. I guess I would still try haha just for the fun of it. As you said on a cheaper Agave. Victoria reginae are like 20 usd here, even the normal variety.
