Thank for the awesome part 1 collection tour Joe! I absolutely love your cactus and succulent raised bed! You have a beautiful collection!
Thanks a million, Tori, really appreciated and really happy that you enjoyed the tour and plant collection! Also super happy that you enjoyed the raised bed with cacti and other succulents. As I am a big fan of staging beautiful plants...and I also had loads of rocks, minerals and fossils that I did not want to hide away in cupboards and cabinets... I decided to go big and a step beyond staging in pots or trays, so the idea of the raised bed came up, haha! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! I always also enjoy watching your fantastic videos and wonderful channel!! Happy growing!

Nice tour Joe😌👍🌵💖I love how you meticulously keep your cacti in order of species😌🙏That makes watering day much easier, and also they are in appropriate light levels too👏Excellent Job🌟I must do a video soon on cacti that enjoy tropical hot summers in Japan Joe😊🙏They include: Echinopsis, Notocactus and Parodias. I enjoyed watching😎🌵
Thanks so much Newman, for your wonderful feedback and comments, much appreciated and very happy that you enjoyed watching the video! Thanks, yes indeed I do try to keep them organised in a way that helps me best provide water, nutrients, substrate and lighting as required by each group. I would love to see a video from you on the cacti that you grow that enjoy the tropical hot summers in Japan most! Hope you are having a fantastic Friday, enjoy your evening and also the weekend ahead, best wishes and happy growing of course!
@@cactusjoe I have a video I put out last week if you want to watch Joe
@@newmanmansell760 thanks Newman, I will check it out this evening!
Awesome part 1 collection tour, Joe. Absolutely love how your cactus bed looks. All your plants are looking fantastic. Looking forward to seeing part 2. Oh and I love your tshirt as well haha. Thank you for sharing with us my friend. Have a wonderful evening and happy growing as always from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌺🌸🌼🏜
Thanks so much, Daz, really happy that you enjoyed the video and also especially liked the plants and cactus bed! It has been a dream of mine, long-time-coming, to put something like that together - after so many years on the road and always moving around with parts of my current collection... Rocks and plants simply rock, haha!! Wishing you a relaxing evening and sending you and Edith very best cactus greetings for a terrific Tuesday and rest of the week ahead!! Happy growing my friends!!
Thank you Joe for this wonderful tour in your greenhouse. I absolutely love your cacti rock bed ! It’s so beautiful ! I wonder if one day you would mak a special video about it to explain how you built it. Is there different section for the soil ? I mean, if you want to change the soil how do you make it ? That would be interesting in a futur video. Ferocactus glancesens and the nudum version are my favorite ferocacti. I adore them ! And what kind of echinocereus was that? The super beautiful one with a lot of buds. Can’t wait for the part 2 !! 🌵🌵🌵💚💚💚
Many thanks indeed, Anna, fantastic to read your awesome comments and feedback!! I'm very happy to read also that you really liked the cactus rock bed! That has been a dream of mine for a long time and when I moved into my greenhouse a few years ago I finally realised it! But it also changes with time, as I am figuring out what works and what does not... I will indeed make a separate video to explain how I built it, how I maintain it, etc. Great idea, thanks! Haha, yes those Ferocacti are real favourites of mine too! Oh, and the Echinocereus with the buds (...btw, they have exploded into a huge bouquet of flowers this week!!) is E. subinermis, a really wonderful cactus that I can wholeheartedly recommend growing!! Hope you are having a great week so far, have an awesome rest of it too! Happy growing!!
Ooo that’s funny ! I have this echinocereus but still small so I wasn’t sure. And the best thing is that I bought this echinocereus subinermis v. luteus last year in July in Germany when I visited the Uhlig Kakteen nursery ! It had only one flower last year and but this year it has four buds ! Your specimen is really gorgeous !!
What up Succa? I really enjoyed that tour mostly because of the slow panning across the shelves to see the mini collections within the greenhouse. How old are your Carnegiea gigantea? I hear the grow very slowly (good). I have one and the spines are black, unlike yours which one had reddish spines. Also, how often are you watering now? I will ask that question again for your shelf planting. That's where I saw the gasteria and when gasteria look good, you pretty much know that everything is healthy. I can't wait to see part two...thanks for sharing!
Many thanks Terry, awesome comments and feedback, really appreciated and also interesting! Very happy that you enjoyed the tour, part 1! In the current hot and sunny weather we are having here, i water approx. every 8-10 days; why? well, it takes about 4 days for the pots to completely dry out after the previous watering, then i keep the substrate dry for 4 days, then I water again - that is my current "cycle".
My saguaros are 25 years old, grown from seed, and the spines used to be only gray, ...and only recently have they started to become red in the apex, which makes me wonder whether they are actually the so-called "fake saguaro" Pachycereus pringlei??! The seeds I bought at the time however were labelled Carnegia gigantea... in any case, i am very happy with it's progress now...it was kept by a friend for me for about 10 years when I was travelling a lot on business... but that's when it unfortunately got it's etiolated growth. Thanks again, enjoy the rest of the week, and happy growing of course!
That was the perfect video for a relaxed Sunday evening! 👍🏻 But I must say you ended it with quite a cliffhanger, can't wait to see Part 2 😉
I wonder how long it takes you to water this huge collection, it must take a full day because I'm already busy for round-about an hour with my ~30 cacti/succulents, haha😅
I wish you a great start of the new week! See you in Part 2! :)
Hallo Jacob! Haha, yes indeed, it takes me about an hour and a half to water my entire collection, so often I will do that over two parts, so on two evenings. Also, I do water my "other succulents" a bit more frequently than my cacti. Yes, haha, I did not want to bore you all with yet another very long video, so I decided to cut this one into two parts...and as I would not mind if you all are still interested in watching part 2 also, I had to end with a little bit of a "cactus bed cliffhanger" lol! But, no worries, part 2 will be out very soon!! Thanks once again for all your keen interest, wonderful comments and support, for always watching and commenting, as always all very much appreciated! Wishing you a terrific Tuesday and an awesome rest of the week ahead, happy growing! Kakteengrüße nach Kassel!!
Have you ever encountered the orchid mites on your aloes? which pesticide works for you?
Hi, thanks so much for watching! No, I have not so far experienced orchid mites, what do they look like, how can I see whether my Aloes have them? I use pesticides only very rarely, and as a preventive one, just before the winter dormancy I use a systemic one called Lizetan AZ (main component: Azadirachtin), but it will not be sold under that name in every country, which is why I mention the main chemical component. But you can also use different ones. However, before you buy one, e.g. in a plant nursery or garden center, do ask for pesticides specifically that are safe to use with cacti! Happy growing!!
@@cactusjoe actually it's hard to notice them really unless you see "red leaves" on the crown/on the new growth, in the stem or if the growth suddenly slows down.. if you try to uproot it and remove some drying leaves you'll be able to see red/orange like powder that's them infesting the core already.. :(
@@drivendraven thanks for that Info, very interesting and useful to know!
Wow your cacti collection is fantastic I really enjoyed this video but I must ask if the bats are real
Hi Marlene! Thanks so much, very happy that you enjoyed the cacti collection, thanks very much for watching and commenting! Haha, great question that others have asked too, they do look quite real don't they? But they aren't, the artist has done a magnificent job with these little metal sculptures! Wishing you a fantastic Friday, take care and happy growing!!
It's a huge collection, and they Re all thriving..
Do you consider making a video about the substrate your using? I guess it would be mineralic, mine are in available "cactus soil", they are fine but I'm wondering if I should change at least some into mineralic mix 🤷🏻♀️🍀greetings from Austria 🙋🏻♀️🌵
Hi Christina! Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated! Regarding your question on substrate: I included the "recipe" of my own cactus substrate in this previous video (see at 16:20) on why and how I personally like repotting my plants in the late winter period: ruclips.net/video/AgX4Ol2XY6U/видео.html
Best regards to Austria and hope you are having a wonderful day, happy growing!!
@@cactusjoe thank you very much Joe, was looking for a substrate video on your Chanel and now I will look it up 🍀
I realy want to ask you after growing cacti for as long as you have if you could go back 20 or 30 years is there and seeds you wish you planted or planted more of so i would have had a mature homegrown (insert name here) cacti now or more of one kind?
Hey Anders, that is a great question! I think it would be the slow-growing cacti like Ariocarpus but also Copiapoas which I think I would be growing more of if I was starting all over again...with some experience first however, as they are not really easy plants for beginners! But I am also happy that I DO still have quite a lot of very old plants, grown from seed like my 50+ year old Echinocactus grusoniis (...I had a dedicated video last year on those, remember?) and also my tray full of Ariocarpus fissuratus, etc.
This is amazing... I just brought my first cactus and I'm so nervous I'm going to kill him 🥺
Hi there! A warm welcome to my channel, thanks for watching and for commenting, glad you enjoyed the tour! Also really fantastic to read that you have joined the club of cactus fans and growers, welcome!! Don't worry and no need to be nervous, actually cacti are not that hard to grow if you just follow a few basic guidelines and steps (...in fact, they don't mind a bit of neglect, haha):
(1) keep in a bright, if possible slightly sunny and warm location;
(2) grow in a pot that has a hole at the bottom and in a cactus soil/substrate, i.e. one that drains water easily;
(3) in the growth period (early Spring to early Autumn) water regularly, but only after the soil has fully dried for a few days following the previous watering (i.e. they definitely hate overwatering;
(4) in the winter dormancy period (when they do not grow) keep in a cool and dry location, water a little bit and only very rarely. Do you know which type of cactus you got, i.e. did it have a name tag? Best wishes and lot's of success and fun!! Happy growing!
@@cactusjoe your cactus are absolutely stunning.
It's only a tiny little one the name on the tag was "old lady cactus".
I repotted it into a Terra cotta pot with succulent/ cactus mix soil. Here in Australia it's our winter. So I watered it after repotting but not planning on watering again for some time. Is that right?
@@cloakinghawk yes, that's perfect!👍😊🌵🌼 Thanks again for your kind words, really very happy that you enjoyed the tour and plants! Have a great day!😊👍🌵🌵🌸🌺🌼💚😎
Under 16min for that big collection shame on you we need a longer video or the comment section will show up at your door for a full day guided tour of the greenhouse edit: i did not see the part 1 thing but i hope to get atleast 5 parts then
Haha, Anders, there will be only two parts, not five, as I really had no intention of boring the wits out of everyone! If you are interested, I will have more videos coming that then take a look at specific parts and genera of the collection - so e.g. I will have at least one coming to cover my Euphorbia, maybe one on the caudiciforms, etc. Works for you? Thanks for watching and for your enthusiasm, much appreciated!!
