    I want to say thank you for all your content. Also you know we all grow when growing our plants. There is always room for learning. I worked at a nursing once and oh my goodness you learn something new everyday. And once I learn something I do research for a while to learn more about all sides and perspectives. The hydrogen peroxide should help. I may have some other pointer for powdery mildew I can send you.

    I’m so glad I came across this video, I got some succulents from Etsy last month and brought in the mildewy stuff(?) white powdery circles… I’m new to this but finally had to pitch 3 or 4 but the other ones it spread to thank god I got rid of it. What a nightmare!!! 💔 I watched a video and they said to use alcohol, so that’s what I did. I just sprayed them with alcohol and left them sit out overnight and then put them back in my greenhouse the next day and I also took off all the leaves that had mildew on them, (mine all were on the bottom) enjoyed your video!!

    • @Succulentsandsunshine

      Thank you! Thankfully I haven't seen any powdery mildew on my Haworthias, but I'm keeping a very close eye on things. I think I finally got rid of it (knock on wood) but don't want to ease up my inspections until it's been a few weeks.

    The white fuzzy balls are saprophytic fungi, and usually do not directly harm the plant. Because the soil is highly organic, and the rock material is likely holding in the moisture that it is wicking out of the soil, that's probably why the fungus grew in there.

    • @Succulentsandsunshine
      @Succulentsandsunshine  Месяц назад +1

      That's what my research led me to as well. I've typically only used well draining soils and pots with drainage holes so I hadn't encountered it before. Always something new to learn!

    Hi Cassidy! Those Haworthia look great. I tend to kill off all the roots every winter, unfortunately.
    The powdery mildew (Almost definitely Erysiphe sedi) is a real nasty one. It can spread through water droplets.

    • @Succulentsandsunshine
      @Succulentsandsunshine  Месяц назад +1

      Ugh, powdery mildew feels worse than any other infestation. Definitely tricky to get rid of it completely before it spreads to other plants. It felt like a game of whack a mole!

    Succulents that attract your attention, by their attractiveness or colour are the only succulents I keep. When I had the the boring dull greenish grey succulents mixed with my nicer ones, it destracted the beauty of my faves. Unless you grow them to make money by selling them, then there is no point propogating the sort that are dull to the eyes.

    • @Succulentsandsunshine
      @Succulentsandsunshine  Месяц назад

      And I love that you have a mix that works for you! I think so many new succulent growers tend to water too frequently so the gritty mix works well. I've used it for so long I know how my plants will respond to it and what I need to do.
      But it's definitely not the only way!

    The Dudleya looks like it has root mealybugs 😢
    So it's good you removed the roots.
    You need to check all the plants that were near it, especially the ones on the same tray and shelf.
    (I would check all my plants...and I have over 300 too)

    What is the mixture 1 part peroxide to 10 parts water for powdery mildew? I have seen this starting on my Kalanchoe humilis I just purchased and was told to spray a mixture of whole milk and water.

    • @Succulentsandsunshine
      @Succulentsandsunshine  Месяц назад

      I'm not sure I'd use milk... But I added a few tablespoons of peroxide to a gallon of water. I saw ratios as high as 6 parts water to 1 part peroxide, but most people didn't say what percentage peroxide they were using.
      I've actually wondered if 3% peroxide from the grocery store doesn't need to be diluted, but I still just added a few tablespoons to a gallon of water.
      If the mildew pops up again, I'm going to use the 3% peroxide as-is from the bottle and see what happens.

    • @puffymama51
      @puffymama51 Месяц назад +1

      @@Succulentsandsunshine Yeah I'm not sure I want to mess with the milk. The peroxide would be easier. As for that gross plant you have growing in the concrete, I don't like to use these for planters for they dry out too quickly. Also when I'm repotting, I use a the chopstick you get with the Jack's gritty mix. Thanks for your help.
