    Thank you so so much for your precious advice....Haworthia cooperi is one of my many favorite succulent and i almost lost one because of underwater. The leaves turn brown and deflated. Thank God after a thoroughly soaking, it revives. I just wish my Haworthia Cooperi are propagating fast with puppies because i guess growing them by leaf will take years !!!

    thank you for the growing media tips. those pots are beautiful. but what about low light houseplants? I am new here so will dig deeper into your posts. i live in the us on the minnesota wisconsin border of saint croix river. i have a jade plant since 1990 that has been pretty beaten over the years including to much rain that killed the main stem that was 4 inch across but there are many old branches and many babies.

    Could you please advise. I keep my haworthias in Lechusa Pon, which is basically a mix of perlite, zeolite, pumice. And they seem to dry out very fast. The pot is dry within 3 days, I water them every 3 to 7 days even now in winter, but those leave don’t seem to be able to get enough water and remain very weak and shriveled. Could you please advise what am I doing wrong? Thank yoy

    Raku is quite interesting - normally you use the kiln to fire the glaze onto your ceramic, then it slowly cools down and you remove it. With raku, you take the ceramic out while it's still glowing hot. Old school style is to let it cool in the open air, western style is to basically stick it in a bin of flammable stuff like newspaper. That creates the fantastic cracks and metallic colors you get in raku. Some really neat chemistry, actually.

    Hello😊 ty for all the useful information. Since i do not have the akadama type material to cover the top of the pots, is it ok to use pumice instead?
    And, how about using dolomite partickles (2-3 mm.s) in the potting soil mix instead of using as it as a fertilizer?
    Thank you again 🌼 for the enjoyable videos.

    • @johnnyAGardening

  • @olivia-zh6ou
    @olivia-zh6ou 2 года назад

    I need help with mine, I bought it as a pup and it hasn’t been very long but I noticed soon after I purchased it, that the plant was reaching and leaning to one side of the pot. It’s got a few smaller older leaves around its base, and the rest of the leaves are longer and sort of stand in the direction that the plant is leaning. I was thinking of reporting it and standing it up right, but I wasn’t sure if it would hurt the plant. I don’t know if this plant typically frowns like that or if it just wasn’t getting enough light(even though it’s a very low light plant). Any advice would be appreciated ☺️

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  2 года назад +1

      Most likely it is leaning towards the light, and/or not getting enough light.
      We suggest giving it a little more light and rotating the pot 45 degrees every day or two. Also make sure you are not overwatering. You could repot, however you would still need to correct the light problem.

    Hello from southeastern US! I love your channel! I have had Haworthia limifolia for years. Grows and multiplies like a champ. Only recently have I acquired a cooperi. I love the way the evening sun shines thru the windows! I have mine growing in pure akadama and a terra cotta pot. It seems to dry out really fast and the windows get dull and slightly wrinkled. In pure akadama, would you water more frequently? Mine is only a 2" pot and I water about every five days.

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  4 года назад +1

      We are just trialling growing these in pure Akadama so no definitive answer yet. The drying rate, and therefore watering also depends on the size of the Akadama. You may need more frequent watering if it is large sized. I would guess that this would be the reason it would dry out very quickly.

    • @laurachapin204
      @laurachapin204 4 года назад

      Mine is quite small sized. I water when the terra cotta feels warm and dry and the pot is lighter than when freshly watered. Fingers crossed.

      Leggy usually means not enough light. Brown can mean overwatering OR too much direct sun. SO as you are growing indoors we guess not enough light and too much water. Does this sound right ? Is the soil moist ? Let us know and we will see if we can come up with a solution.

      This could be a number of things. However it depends what you mean by wounds, are they soft and open ?

      Maybe a lack of water.
      They could be splitting.
      It could be rot, however unlikely as you have not watered them.

I know it is hard to tell without seeing a picture, but I think the issue might be sunburn, because they started with white hard scars at the top and some have soft green wounds at the bottom.

Except from one that I think had too much sunburn for his young age and is slowly rotting.
