Treating Spider Mites On Our Cactus
Welcome back everyone! In this video we show you how we treat our plants when we have an outbreak of spider mites. Spider mites are small mite like insects and come in a variety of different species. While many will do no harm to your plants, a few species can cause serious damage to your plants. We highlighted some photos in the video to hopefully help you identify them yourselves. We do not own the pictures and full credit for them go to their respective owners (links to the photos can be found below). Always be careful when dealing with pesticides as they can be harmful to humans if not handled correctly. Keep out of reach of small children and pets and always wear PPE (personal protec...

How to spot and treat root Mealybug on cactus
Thank you so much for your video! I have been searching and searching and so many keep their cactus seedlings in the baggie. I felt this was not the best information as so many of mine got mold fungus and died. I thought i did something wrong, but now i am having success with giving them air after germination! Thanks again, I am so very grateful for your information!!
I hate mites had them all last year and finally got rid of them this year. I tried spinosad at first and that helped but didn’t eliminate them, what I found that worked was wet-able sulfur fungicide spray.
I live in Japan and i'm growing Agave lechuguilla, Peyote, Echinocereus rigidissimus, and Hechtia texensis. When I transfer them from pots to a desert terrarium, I will put some limestones into there too like the awesome landscape in this video.
Really awesome stuff, i love how clean your seedling pots look, mine are all covered in algae :p Best regards!
Very enjoyable video. 😀👍 Have you tried exposing those pencil-like Mammillaria albiflora to more sunlight? Turbinicarpus lophophoroides like richer clay soils, perhaps your substrate is too lean for them. T. alonsoi like some humus in soil, and they prefer shaded position, especialy when young. Later on (when they reach approx. 1 cm in diameter) they can be gradually exposed to more sun. Best regards, Nino
Most root rot can be prevented if you use plastic pots and drill more drain holes all around the bottom of the pot instead of one little teeny drain hole at the bottom soil aeration is the most important part of preventing root rot also filling the pot with soil all the way to the top is incorrect there should be at least an inch or inch and a half of finish grade in the pot
❤❤
Beautiful plants! Thanks!
is it legal to harvest them ? ✌️💚 from the middle of W.V.
No, it is not. It's not good to take plants from their natural habitat as it can lead population decline. However there are lots of Pediocactus in cultivation that are available for purchase if you are interested!
Thanks Dude! What an amazing show; all these specimens are incredible. Many of the Ario & Copia are so perfect they look like . . . unreal. Haven't finished watching yet; we can see why this is a favorite cacti show. PEACE
Yes they have some amazing plants at this show!
Awesome plants - thanks for sharing!The quality of staging is just on another level compared to BCSS shows here in the UK.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes this is one of our favorite shows here in Southern California
I was thinking the same thing. De grafts?
I don't understand how do they fit Ariocarpi (and other species with taproots) into that shallow dishes. 🤔
Just loved your clay pot a lot
Awesome 👍 informative ❤
I live at 9500' in Teller County, and we have these all over my property. They're so cool. I've tried (unsuccessfully) to propagate them. Hummingbirds LOVE their flowers in June.
That's awesome!
When I grow up I want to be a potato farmer. Out of context comment. SF/
What is, sifted organic. People keep saying add mineral. What is it actually called so I can buy some?
to add mineral, azomite is a good option. As for sifted organic, that is something you would have to do yourself. For a lot of our plants we use very little organic
Amazing video, thanks a lot for sharing! Really nice to see some high quality video with the habitat of this species.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really cool to see these in the wild! Not enough people are interested in them and some of the other funky little cold hardy cacti so it's nice to see a video dedicated to it. I live in Albuquerque and have one outside in the ground but I should plant more! Started a bunch of P. despainii this year too woowoo
The Pediocactus have pretty pink and yellow flower blooms in the spring too.
Oh hey, i just ordered from that seller last night!
Hope you enjoy what you bought!
@cactusduty5241 i hope so too! I got myself a boobie cactus, bunch of Lithops, and a Dinteranthus
Cool music
Lithops are cool
Wow! Such videos are so educational. Love them! Fascinating how these marvelous plants have adapted themselves to tough elements of nature. Your channel is so underrated - it will suddenly boom someday!!
Thank you for the kind words and we're glad you enjoy the videos!
Awesome!
Nice.. what do you recommend for haworthia? 1/3 organic 2/3 mineral or less of organic and more mineral? What's your recommendation?
@@getsetgarden 1/3 organic and 2/3 mineral is perfect for Haworthia
@@cactusduty5241 Thank you so much! Appreciate your reply 🙏🏼
True Grit!
Where do you get your 2" green tall pots? Enjoyed this vid. Replanted some small lithops onto sandy soil and taller pots I had. Also like the Ario video too. Keep it up. 😎🌵
Ll pots Mostly bought on ebay
Small
Thank You 🙏🏽
We’re did you buy your airocarpus from if you don’t mind me asking I live in South Carolina and can not find them here great video
Long ago I bought them from different AZ cactus nurseries like mikes2go
@@kes1171 yes he is a great guy I have bought 6 from him in the last two months and some other cactus as well have a great day
Nice video thanks! But how in the world were those cacti shipped (as shown) without scattering gravel and soil all over?
Delivered in a car not by mail
@@kes1171 OK now I get it. Thanks!
In my oppinion Why they’re rot is caused by the water are so alkaline, naturally cacti like acid water. U need to test ur water pH if its more than 7.5 and use for watering offcoursly they will die slowly
Beautiful collection! What’s your soil recipe? Looks very inorganic.
Yes very inorganic mostly sandy soil and pumice
Hi there😌🙌Amazing collection🙏💞
I really like the top dressing you use around your plants. What type of rock is it?
It's crushed fill rock we bought from Home Depot. They probably have a few different varieties to pick from from any of the big hardware chain stores.
Thanks for this program, I always enjoy your videos. 👍 May I ask do you condition your water in any way before watering (do yo acidify it), or do you use rainwater?
We use rainwater when we can get it but it often comes at the wrong time of year for us. We do acidify our water using vinegar.
I'm new to growing cacti and this is a great and informative channel. Many thanks.
Glad you enjoy our content, and welcome to an amazing hobby!
I guess one doesn,t feel so bad when burying old cig butts in pot plants {joking but may not be to some degree}
Nice video. Thank you for sharing.
I am looking for one that all I know is called Fire Wheel. Grows in bunch upwards but not very tall.
Interesting comments re the soil. Thanks
S means South side
Very enjoyable and informative video. Buying new plants is always a pleasure. 👍
Beautiful plants, maybe a video on sowing those seeds in the future?
Cool collection.❤them all!!
Excellent video, as usual.😀👍 Cactus on 9:06 really caught my eye (behind the Stenocactus (multicostatus?), diagonally from M. herrerae). Is this form of Turbinicarpus schmiedickeanus ssp. klinkerianus? Variability of this (sub)species never ceases to amaze me. Best regards, Nino P.S. Nice and healthy Pogona vitticeps.I used to keep and breed them some 20-25 years ago.
Turbinicarpus schmiedickeanus schwazii I think same as the others with white flowers
First
Hi!!!! I just bought some Lenta seeds from y'all & I am Sooooo happy & can't wait to receive them! Am I allowed to say that??? Anyways, I was going to try y'all's method this time! I have a question pls,,, you said u use JUST pumice & sand for ur mix?? That looked like very fine sand. Won't it just fall through the pumice to the bottom??? Also, did I hear right, did u say you just were using Beach sand??? All I can really find is All-purpose sand or course silica sand??!! But I Also found a small grained akadama! I wonder how that would work?? Isn't that how the folks on the other side of the world use?? These are my questions!!! I would sooooo appreciate if u would get back to me, hopefully soon so I can do this with the Lentas!!! I sure do love y'all's videos!!! I especially love the Father-Son team!! Y'all make a great team!!! Thank you so much. Sincerely, Anita 🌵
Hello, we would be happy to help. We use sandy soil primarily from the Mojave desert and pumice. We do not use beach sand and primarily use sandy soil. This sandy soil has a mix of sand soil and might have some clay. Both all purpose sand and silica sand will work but I would guess silica sand would work better. Akadama is useful but expensive so we don’t use it. Turface is a good alternative and is cheaper and so is floordri, so long as it’s high fire diatomaceous earth. You can find floordri in auto parts stores because it is used to suck up oil but works well with plants. Just make sure your soil doesn’t grow mold! Best of luck and hope you enjoy the lentas!
Remember Final Fantasy 8, and the main weakness against the GF boss, Cactuar, was water based attacks? I didnt understand at the time, but as i got into cacti collecting, ive learned FULL WELL the dangers of water to drout resistant plants. Luckily we're still in the very early weeks of May, and the last time i watered my cacti was 2½ weeks ago... but they got caught in a bit of a downpour yesterday. My phone lied to me and said no rain until 8pm, so i worked until 7pm, but then my wife told me it was raining pretty good at the house around 5pm. So unfortunately they all got a bit wet, but on the plus side theyre all awake from their dormancy and growing, so they should be fine, _especially if i get some hot and sunny days soon._ Today is sunny and warm, but my phone still has rain until Sunday. Hopefully its wrong and i get more sunny days. Im gonna be getting a small greenhouse soon, and i cant wait!!! Happy growing, and keep 'em dry until youre ready!!!
Never played FF8 but yes water can be a serious danger to cactus! Best of luck in your growing !
