@rabindraagarwal2284 sometimes they just don't take. Some plants can also be sterile.

Thank you! 😊

It takes years for the plant to mature enough to produce seed pods.

(I’m also curious about when you can peel the glue off)

Thank you so much! About the glue, I realized gorilla glue is way harder to get off than regular super glue. Id rather use a thin later of regular next time. Just be careful bc its more runny. I usually leave the glue, doesn't bother me. And then a year later I'll see it flaking and pick at it.

Agreed!!!! This was perfect! Thank you!

Whenever your warm season starts up, late spring or early summer is best. Just make sure it seems to be actively growing and making leaves.

Thank you!

I dont like to bury a caudex that has already been exposed to light. But you can definitely avoid lifting the caudex as it grows for as long as possible. You can fatten a caudex up pretty easily by just keeping it in very well draining soil and watering often in summer. They love water in hot weather. Well draining soil is key.

I've been growing these for many years and have never had an issue. Just make sure and wash hands well if you are cutting it or a leaf breaks off etc. It only can hurt you if you eat it or rub sap in an open wound of yours. Many people have accidently had sap on fingers, fingers in mouth, and it tasted bitter but no issues after. Just avoid doing that. Some tribes in Africa cook this sap to a concentrate to make poison arrows.

I tried something new this year with Aquaphor and a few with Vaseline. It worked well so far! The gorilla glue was annoying to get off later. Regular super glue would flake off better than Gorilla.

I tried a waterproof wood glue one year and that was permanent! It's still on one of my plants after a few years lol! I haven't tried Elmer. Im sure Elmer's is much easier to remove

Aquaphor!!! 😲 Whatever gave you that idea? You're fearless, I'll give you that!

@@barryauguste9734 our vet had us use it on our dog's surgical wound. It kept a really nice barrier on the wound and allowed it to not crust over. So I did some googling and saw a few people had used Vaseline before. So experiment time! My plants didn't shrink back so seems to be good!

Ok, Thank you so much!

Yes, those can be rooted. They won't have the same caudex as a plant from seed would, but they can eventually grow very large roots to give a nice look.

Fall Weather change, cold fronts

Yes, I apply ground cinnamon with a fine brush after pruning my Adenium...

Thanks! ❤

Thank you!

We will have to fight over this one lol!

@@candicescaudiciformcollection thinking about what you said regarding the extended growing season due to your location: do you think I could reproduce those conditions by leaving my growlites on longer, continuing watering, and keeping the stonks warm? I generally reduce the light to 9 1/2 hours during winter and let things go dormant....your thoughts?

@@barryauguste9734 yeah I think you could reproduce good conditions for more growth for sure.

This is my first and only one and haven't pruned before but I know you can prune to control height. It probably won't get thicker. Maybe more branchy

Yes, I grew them from seeds

Thanks so much

Thank you!

Thank you!

Mine grow slower because I have one covered condo patio with very minimal light and barely any space so I under pot them.

@@candicescaudiciformcollection you are Adenium lover and i hope so in the future you move to new house with yard that you take care of your amazing collection under direct sunlight do you try to grow them with grow light yet in this condition? by artificial sun light tech

@@avalancheadenium Thank you. No grow lights. They get enough light to bloom and do ok. I just need more space really. One day

Look for sellers on Facebook Adenium sales groups. Many sellers are in Thailand.

Thanks a bunch ❤

Thank you!

Thanks. Yep they get very little sun where I live, sadly. VERY little. Almost all diffused shaded light. Some branches get a bit of direct here and there. I just have one NE facing covered patio. I will be much happier when I get a house with a yard. This market is ridiculous right now though.

@@candicescaudiciformcollection the housing market is off the scale - it surely can't continue. I read everyone is flocking to Vermont and places like that. With climate change, its probably not a bad idea.... Amazing that you get such blooms with little direct sunlight - I had assumed that they'd need more to flourish. I have mine under 15- hours of inside growlites (no patio....), reducing to 9 in the winter. Hoping for the best.... 😃😃😃

@@barryauguste9734 Yes I hope market gets better soon. It is definitely getting too hot in Texas. Oh yeah, the bloom thing is an issue for me with all my seedlings. I need them to bloom so I can boot their butts off to college lol. I have over 100 babies only because I wanted to collect a few rare colors for myself and sell the rest. I only want a few but gotta have tons to get good gambling odds. So with my new bench I built, I have them all elevated into the small area of direct sun. Once I get them all blooming and out, I can start moving my favorites into the prime light real estate. In this video, the top level one's branches reach the bit of sun, so they get to bloom. The others will have to be less happy until I sell off the young ones. I realized my huge new bench also causes alot more shadows. I can move it later on though.

Thank you! :)

I just rooted some with some general mix of soil, perlite, and vermiculite. I tried something new by putting a bit of neosporin on cuts day of cut (fun experiment), let dry 24 hours, then dipped in root hormone and put in large ziplock for a month. Remove all but 1-3 leaves first. Its been 3 weeks and I'm seeing growth so I think it is good. I dont personally like cinnamon. I dont think it works well. I used to use it and really don't see a difference in using it and leaving bare.

I'm not an expert at rooting adenium cuttings btw. Don't try neosporin yet. Im playing around so not sure of good idea yet. I like to experiment.

@@candicescaudiciformcollection ok....what do you think is in the neosporin that will aid them?

@@barryauguste9734 Maybe to kill bacteria. Another plant person mentioned it and it I thought it would be fun to try.

@@candicescaudiciformcollection Sorry to be a nuisance.....just one more question - now I've cut Stonkey using the super-glue method, will that superglue ever dissipate? Will the ever be new branching from where the supeglue is?. Just a thought.

I got dha seeds from a few sellers on a Facebook Adenium page (All About Adenium), a few mini seeds from Ko (look up Ko Adenium in thailand). King Adenium sells White Pearl, Pretty much all Thailand or Taiwan sellers.

Thank you
