1 of the nicest cactus collections, I have EVER laid eye's on.! Jack,...SO glad You dont miss a beat....@ clarify anything that may have been expressed quickly etc. Thank You for sharing this INSANE COLLECTION. Or
Of all your videos I’ve binged lately, this is my favorite. I’ve only been collecting for less than a year, but my favorites are arios, astros and poas. I’ve acquired too many to keep under lights anymore, so I just ordered a greenhouse. I have so many questions, and I’m afraid of watering. It can be overwhelming for a newb like me. This man just answered so many questions, and has proof to back it up. Tomorrow I am going to attempt water therapy, because I have a bunch of astors and gymnos that are having the hardest time rooting. Thanks for all that you do, I love your content, and you’re a total asset.
This guy needs to write a book...he's taken growing to a new level. I've been a hard grower for decades and progress is slow...but this ....I might have to change tactics 🤔 excellent info and video🌿
Absolutely incredible!!! Really need to figure out a way to bring back some plants next time I´m in Japan. Love how you are showing us how different the same plant can look when its hardgrown vs cultivated in a greenhouse.
Holy! I love this! That’s a good fact wetting it doesn’t mean it’s absorbed. This is why I use drip pads I get from ikea for a mudroom. I let it fall out the pot and then sit in a puddle which will suck it back up. When it does that fully then you know it’s has been watered properly. If there’s excess water, remove it.
This by far the most amazing collection anyone will ever see hands down!!! He truly needs his own channel and series of books. If he does have a channel, please link his page.
I would say that there is an easy explanation for triple-watering working for Jack well. He is using a mix of about 70% of scoria and 30% of a supermarket soil. Grit size scoria has extremely high permeability but low water retention. Bag soils usually are made predominantly from peat which is hard to rehydrade after drying out. That combo let's water go through crazy fast but at the same time water retention is very low, that's why it requires multiple watering to get fully soaked. Soils with good share of clay, silt and sand size particles usually have very high water holding capacity, that's why they require only a singe time watering to get soaked, comparing with very gritty soils with low amount of fine particles.
I ordered scoria once and it was the red and grey lava rock we saw on Jack's surface layers everywhere. However this is just a top dressing, he said it's _pumice_ he's using for 70% of his mix. (Maybe that counts as a type of scoria too though?)
@@HeyHeyHarmonicaLuke Well, he called it pumice, but the only thing I was able to see was a scoria, that's why I assumed that he had mistaken one for another. Basically, scoria and pumice are the same type of rock, but they are still two different things. The main differences are their chemical composition (usually scoria is a vesicular basalt and pumice a vesicular ryolite) and size of their vesicles (scoria has big, pumice small vesicles). Scoria is black to reddish, depending on the oxidation stage of iron in it, pumice is gray to nearly white. Pumice is lighter (both in color and weight) and has somewat better water retention.
@@SimaShangde Cool, that's what I thought. Yep I'm sure he's just using pure scoria as a pretty top dressing as there's no 30% cactus potting mix visible there. Under the surface though, it will be pumice and cactus potting mix :) :)
Love watching all your videos. Just stumbled on Cactus Quest a few weeks back. The knowledge that your spreading about cacti and plants is absolutely amazing. I look forward to watching all your video’s.
What an absolute Chunked out display Wow 🤩 Folks “I’ll tell ya this!” I’m NO expert but Wow I’m completely inspired to advance my own collection simply by the results of his R&D.. just Look 👀 at those Expressions.. Whoa 💪🏽 Appreciate you 🌵
Damn dude, what an episode. One question I had about watering, and maybe you could speak to this for your own plants, does he spray directly over the plants getting them wet when he waters, or is he only watering the soil for his larger plants? I’ve always heard that’s a good way to kill plants like say aricarpus retusus because water will sit in the crevices of the leaves. This kinda doesn’t make sense to me since obliviously rain in habitat is going to hit all parts of the plant and they do fine. Any clarification would be appreciated. Cheers!
This is so helpful and inspirational! I don't expect to be nearly as successful as Jack, but to see the potential of these plants. I just purchased my first astrophytum asterias and this is what I needed to see and hear. Wish me luck! 🙂🤞
Near the start of the video, he says he pays little attention to the soil. 70% pumas/30% misc home depot cactus soil. But at the End of the video he says, the plants all have different soil needs (or something just like that) with no explanation regarding the difference.
I think both can be true. Right before that he said he’s still experimenting “… because different plants love different soil mixes” I think it’s possible to have a very simple soil mix but also make small adjustments here and there. For him, paying close attention to the mix would probably mean honing in on all the micronutrients 🤷
it's because he's full of shit. he probably doesn't know jackshit about cacti cultivation and just does what the people he bought these cacti from tell him to do. he did not sow or graft any of these cacti they were all bought.
Amazing collection and very insightfull. Strange to hear Ario watering in winter. Even once a week in summer. Environment plays a big factor though. Loved this video. Thank you.
These are the stores www.etsy.com/shop/ThorntoOasis, managed by Amy the wife. www.ebay.com/usr/iseticky, managed by Jack IG @ jorden2003 Right now we are having a plant sale in this fb group: facebook.com/groups/1432026367018417/
Wow! What a cool setup😯🤲💖Those Ariocarpus and Astrophytums are amazing👏I haven't tried water culture either and I'm going to try it after seeing it work with my own eyes🙏I enjoyed watching so much🤲🌟
are the astros in the water degrafts that won't root? this is an important point, i might have missed what he said. but i cant think of any other reason an astro wouldn't root. would you do the same for degrafted arios?
@@bobs5596 That method is for plants previously rooted, but refuses to give new roots for whatever reason. To root a cutting or degraft a plant, this won't work.
Simply amazing, I am going to try the water therapy with a myriostigma nudum multicostatum that it is now rooting but with no so much energy. Thanks Hunter for your work, amazing greenhouse by the way, I would love to see him watering his plants!
There is no way that in 6 years he could've achieved that success with the ariocarpus. You would've bought them big already and continue to maintain them. Those are very expensive plants. Wow!
EXACTLY!! Noticed MOST were still in the plastic pots WE buy them in. 😄😄 Like sure..go to Home Depot @ buy everything on the shelves. . Im glad Jack repeated instructions for watering, etc. And the 3 stages of watering i know about. The collection IS spectacular. However it takes years to have a Seasoned Collection of plants OR Cactus such as this manicured one. Its stunning, but I prefer TerraCotta pots - @ a more causal Setting. Either way ....they're worth growing @ enjoying. TY4 sharing
Some kooky responses. NONE of these plants look like the habitat scourged plants you see on eBay. Lol if he does have any like that he definitely didn’t show them in this video. And worrying about whether or not he grew the specimen plants from seed or not.. What?? He’s clearly acquiring specimen plants so that he can acquire tons of seed and pass on desirable traits with his seed grown plants. He never said he grew these specimen plants from seed. Mr. Baso didn’t grow all of his insane specimen plants from seed but you wouldn’t try to take something away from his business.
i wonder what he uses for fungicide and how he avoids black spot. my plants rot as fast as they grow so they never get any bigger. i'm sure it helps that he's in an arid environment that also never freezes. i'm lucky if my relative humidity gets below 50% and i have a real winter to get through each year.
What restusus confusus me is that if you were planting in the ground you have to tamp it all down and eliminate pockets or voids but when planting in container we lean towards hydroponic media like pumice, lava and coir . : creating space which seems contrary but is a big criteria in container growing. It's a never ending tightrope but I'll stick with kajagoogoo for now.
As far I know Godzilla comes from plants taken from Durango state area. That was told by a Japanese monk (mr. Sato?)who's grow a lot of cáctus. Also probably was developed by Mr. Siguri another japanese master grower.
I've recently bought Physan 20 and wondering what the ratio of concentrate to a gallon of water should be if I want to use it on some cactus seeds I'm going to grow. Thanks

How could you ever look away?

hearing plant people talk is so filled with poetry and intellectual passion. so wonderful!
Man, that home garden is out of this world. Thanks for the video.
Jack's collection is amazing and even that word is not great enough to describe it!! Can't believe he has done all of that in 6 years....WOW!!!
Amazing!!!! Just amazing... plants, cultural and education all in one video!!!
No one in the world can grow to those sizes in 6 years...I'm going to bet he's spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to accumulate what we see here.
he and nobody else on this planet has grown arios to that size in 6 years. he's a rich dude or rich kid and has bought them for several $100k's
1 of the nicest cactus collections,
I have EVER laid eye's on.!

This was great, thanks for asking the good questions about his soil mixture, and methods of watering, ferting and rooting!
This collection is insane! 🌵🌵🌵🔥🔥

Then you should no there's NO WAY he grew these in 6 years...he has purchased them and is now maintaining them.
There are many of these chequebook collectors. They go hard, like hoarders. You need to talk to the people who sell them the specimens.
Pretty sure plants were purchased matured already
@@oh5148how are you so sure? wheres your proof to backup your claim? im honestly curious
For his grafting skill alone, agreed
What an impressive and well maintained collection. Thanks for showing us.
that is the coolest cactus collection i've seen
Absolutely incredible!!! Really need to figure out a way to bring back some plants next time I´m in Japan.

A fascinating collection and the amount of dedication to care for all of it is so admirable.
Such an amazing collection.
Very impressive collection of plants. When it comes time to water your plants how do you do it?
Wow. Thanks for sharing. This is a tour to remember. These plants are royalty. Thanks for the watering tips.
Вот это кактусы, так кактусы! Японцы волшебники, таких гибридов нигде больше не увидишь, просто инопланетные! Спасибо за ролик.

All the plants are watered from overhead. Bottom watering or watering only the soil is doable for a smaller collection.
I used the multiple waterings trick for microgreen production and regular nursery pots for trees and shrubs, awesome cacti!
I haven’t been following you for very long but of all the greenhouse/growers videos you have posted this episode is amazing!
This is so helpful and inspirational! I don't expect to be nearly as successful as Jack, but to see the potential of these plants. I just purchased my first astrophytum asterias and this is what I needed to see and hear. Wish me luck! 🙂🤞

Very nice so beautiful cactus 🌵 I love it so many cactus I love it
Amazing collection, those plants are extremely healthy, thanks for sharing!!!
Are those giant williamsii’s near the window at 6:11?
“My favorite plant is the one that I’m looking at” exactly!
This has got to be one of the most insane videos I’ve ever seen.
What kind of systemic do you apply after watering them twice ?
Yes i came here because he told us about his tour and im in too succulent and i just follow u Jack and Amy are Amazing
Beautiful and well arranged and they are rare cactus.
Wonderful greenhouse!
Woooow I'm amazed in the collection he has .. very passionate man
Dang….love your collections…so beautiful.
Thanks

What an awesome video hunter thanks man. You asked such good questions on our behalf! Looking forward to the next one
@5:45 you can see some ceraria namaquensis,
(BORAT VOICE)"VERY NICE"
Amazing collection and very insightfull. Strange to hear Ario watering in winter. Even once a week in summer. Environment plays a big factor though. Loved this video. Thank you.
Size biggest thing wow 😮beautiful cute very much 🌵
Everytime I watch this video Im more amazed
Jack should be proud He grows some very good cactus specimens. Great fun video.
Thanks for the video!!
What do you use twice a year, fungicide or insecticide?
Thank you!!
wow amazing collection !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like your water therapy idea. Wonder if that will work with Cryptanthus
I love when your video are uploaded. I watch them over and over again. Much love from Australia

Absolutely incredible and beautiful!!!!!!!!!! I am so envious!!!!!!
Impresionante!!!! Felicitaciones 👏

Mai visto una meraviglia così grazie x il video
Awesome greenhouse and plants! Thanks for sharing!

Man I am from Mexico , you should come to watch some of the great greenhouse
would love to
There is no way that in 6 years he could've achieved that success with the ariocarpus. You would've bought them big already and continue to maintain them. Those are very expensive plants. Wow!
It would be great if you give us an advise on how to root arios after de-grafting them. Do you keep a little piece of the stump to allow it to root?
I said the same thing, and then died laughing when I read your comment.
I grow these from seed......... DECADES! 😘
@@jenXMAGA 6 years x 10 = 60 years....that's reasonable.

How does he get them to grow so large? WOW!
you should ask that from the growers he bought those specimens from. astrophytum and ariocarpus don't grow that big in just 6 years.
Wow, so many gorgeous plants. May I ask how does Jack acidify the water??
He proly uses phosphoric acid, and as he said adds nutrients which is peters 9 45 15
With vinegar to PH5.8~6.2
@@jorden2003 I do the same thing. My community tap water is 7.6 after vinegar it lowers to 6.1 not the turbinicarpus. They need alkaline water.

Precious collections
Absolutely beautiful
How do I get started growing cactus? Where can I find reasonably priced quality plants?
17:48 is that the grafting stock, looks like myrtillocactus, hylocereus...?
Myrtiilo, harrasia are my favorite, only thing with hylocereus is it doesn't last long.
This is a great collection
I love his astrophytum. Just curious about the plants under the table, how do they get enough sun?
Seedlings often need some protection from direct sun. 25k-30k lumens is common vs the 130k of direct sunlight.
As far I know Godzilla comes from plants taken from Durango state area. That was told by a Japanese monk (mr. Sato?)who's grow a lot of cáctus. Also probably was developed by Mr. Siguri another japanese master grower.
I've recently bought Physan 20 and wondering what the ratio of concentrate to a gallon of water should be if I want to use it on some cactus seeds I'm going to grow. Thanks
1 teaspoon per gallon of water. 5mL per gallon
