In this video, I'll be showing the soil mix I use, the pot size and why and when is the best time to repot a cactus.

I'm learning, I don't know anything about cactus. I grow succulents, and I am an orchid rescuer. I see lots of cactus on the website I buy my succulents, Tia's succulent garden. My orchids come from big box stores when they are ready to toss them out. Enjoyed your video. I might just try a cactus. Thanks Liz, you made it look easy.
lovely video. I normally only use "rock" like mix to grow cacti, not a tiny piece of organic soil. it turns beautiful looks over the years just like its original habitat.
Liz, those cactus are so beautiful. Your voice is beautiful too!
Thank you so much!
Just yesterday i lost my Arizona Rainbow cactus and wished you would show some cactus soil. And there was our succulent fairy godmother!! Thank you. I just noticed that you dont have any Adeniums in your collection. Here they bloom like crazy and have beautiful shapes. I wish i could gift you some. Thank you for the vdo and i just like your sense of humour.
I have two adeniums. Very difficult to grow here because of the frost. So far, I have kept them alive for about 4 years.
Belos cactos 💚
I use a makeup brush to get my dirt off...i love it Liz!!! You ROCK!!!
Thank you for the most interesting video. I have stopped putting larger grit pieces at the foot of the pot as when it came to repotting 2 years on, the roots had been tangled in the grit and most were lost in the repotting process. Since then I have read that two Botanists at Universities in the USA have stated that crocs should not be put at the bottom of pots as they can tangle roots, trap air and reduce draining.
Maybe depends on the plant and how advance the growth is. I find that most succulents will survive even if most of the roots are removed. Thanks for watching.
Hi Liz, the plant you called copiapoa cinerea is probably a gymnocalycium, absolutely not a copiapoa. Thank you from Italy for all your great videos 👍👍👏👏🌵🌷💐🤗
A gymnocalycium baldianum perhaps...
Not like my Baldianums. Possibly a Gymnocalicium species but different from Baldianum. This ones have velvety skin almost the same as copiapoa.
Dear Liz I really love love !!!this video talking and teaching about one determinate spiece. I hope you will do it more often (ej Agavoides, crasulas, sedum etc) Beginners grateful!!!! Lots of Love Cris
Thanks for watching Cristina. Will definitely do more like this.

Thanks for watching!
Lol.. i like your sound effects at around 6.35 😂
I'm trying to find you on fb, Liz. I think I heard you said you do sale your plants there, right?
Hello Liz, great video and thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome as always Adela. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hi Liz. Your unlabeled second cactus is similar to Gymnocalycium bruchii (it forms clumps too) but there are other similar species.
Thanks for the info! Much appreciated. Bruchii it is.🙏🤗🥰
I think it might resemble the sulcorebutia langeri, also. The ‘spines’ look a little bit like caterpillars.
Where did u found those interesting pots, I love them
I get them from garage sale and thrift stores or OP shop.
Thanks🥳
You’re welcome 😊 Thanks for watching.
Wow! Ms. Liz, i think i need to take pups/babies with my cacti...i have some but common cacti only..😍❤️
"Common" are the best. Less stress to look after and also propagate really well. 100% happiness.🥰
👍😊💙🌵
Muy bella la mammillaria y todas saluditos
Thanks Lucy.
Liz could you possibly do a video on lilacina vs pollux. I can not tell which one I have and there isn't a lot of comparison information out there and you are so good at explaining things like differences in similar plants. Thanks 😊
They are very difficult to tell when they're young and also where they're grown. I find that Pollux are more grey tone with a square edge leaf shape and the lilacina(pink tones) with pointier leaves.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. It's summer and I'm in California zone 9b. I have 3 that were labeled lilacina but they all look different!!! Lol . I'll never figure it out !! Thanks for the tips
I’ve been watching you videos for about 6 mths you share some wonderful tips.
You got me starting to love succulent & now Caucasus.
Your soil mix I seen today you add stones to the soil?
Your top dressing did you add granite ?
I tried adding the tiny white rocks/ stones but prefer yours.
Where can I buy then.
I use decomposed Granite. They vary from different parts of the world but mineral content wise is almost the same benefits for the plants. There is one product called Maifan Stone available online. Thanks for watching Kathy and may you continue your love for these beautiful plants.
Thank you for answering my message.
Your special potting mix do you buy it or make your self?
I buy Yates specialist succulent & cactus potting mix from Bunnings I’ve not known any other ones
You really inspire me loving my succulents thank you your have changed my life xx
I have a blue torch cactus..its in a 4in pot.. It needs a bigger pot but i cant repot til Spring season.. I just hope it survives the winter....
They're dormant in winter unless you bring them indoors where it's constantly warm and they'll continue to grow.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK all of my cactus plants are inside and its 70d indoors.. So i guess i can repot it??
@@michellechapman8738 I highly suggest that you don't. Any root disturbance (open wound) will take in moisture at night. It might be warm but that also means there will be high humidity in the room. Once the heater is turned off, the cold will set in, and condensation happens opening your plant to moisture and therefore rot. 70°F is still pretty cold for cactus.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK yes.. You're right. I dont want to lose this cactus because i paid $$$ a nice price for it and the color is so unique!
What..No snacks today..😂.
Snacks are only for my "Succulents & Coffee w/ Liz" VLOG videos.😊

Hi is air drying not needed when repotting my cactus? I am from a tropical country and just bought a new set of cactus.
I always leave them to air dry for at least a couple of weeks them put them in moist soil and water after a month later.
where do you buy all you succulents
you have so many
I get them from all over the place. Plant nurseries, Online and other collectors.
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🤲🇨🇷
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤
How about from the Philippines?
Philippines is tropical. So best to put them in much grittier mix like scoria or Vulcanic rocks so they don't rot. If kept undercover, they will survive with a lot less watering. The perfect low maintenance plant.
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing succulents lovely collection ❤❤
Thanks for watching!
