Repotting a Large Cactus | Detailed How-To
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2023
- I have never repotted a 6-foot cactus before, so I talk through my processes including details of mixing my own potting mix, moving a cactus without getting injured, and how to support a plant with a small root ball.
How is it doing now?
The cactus is doing really well! There is a lot of new growth and it is growing a lot straighter. I think the well-drained soil and infrequent watering, plus all the good sun, is working out well.
Great work! What is the name of it?
Thanks. I am not completely sure what type it is, but my best guess is a candelabra cactus (Euphorbia ingens), which may not even be a proper cactus. Perhaps someone with more cactus knowledge can set us straight.
My cactus is approximately 8 feet tall ,very wide and leaning to one side,very very heavy
How do I move to another pot
Wow. That is a big cactus. Do you know what type it is? For repotting, the only thing I can say is I hope you have a few friends who are willing to bleed for you. But more seriously, if you have to repot it yourself, I don't have any experience with that big of a cactus, but I have considered a few options if I ever do: One idea I had was to rig up a frame (maybe 2x4 boards) and use a bunch of straps to slowly lift the plant out of the pot without having to lay it down. Another options I have considered is to place the old pot inside the new pot and then (gently) break or cut the smaller pot and remove it in pieces. Good luck - let me know what you end up doing. @mariamask5521
Why are you whispering
I am talking quietly, but wispering would be even quieter. I would like to say something about working with plants being calming and peaceful (which is true), but it is probably moreso because I was really close to the mic.
