That is one stunning aloe on the right
Tiran Li do you know the name of the Aloe?
JoseMundo maybe aloe bussei??
Summer Rayne I just love how simplified your videos are for novice, laypeople like myself. It empowers me w/ the confidence to know I can do this myself and be successful. Thank you! :)
I’ve been an avid gardener for over forty years, but now am disabled and can’t get up and down and back and forth to my outside gardens. So I’ve greatly increased my cacti and succulents as my indoor garden. I chose portulaca because with care they’ll bloom beautifully much of the year. Three weeks!!! Thanks to the advice on fast germination. Besides, I’ve loved them since I was a toddler watching my mom in her prize winning gardens!
I'm growing several Lophophera species. I'm a long time gardener but first time with cacti. Apparently many cacti need high humidity for the first several months of their life. It seems counter intuitive as Lophophera cacti and others come from the driest places on the planet however in the natural habitat it is only dry part of the year. At other times Lophophera can be under water literally during the wet season. I've struggled with mould and algae because of the high moisture required but when I found the sweet spot they do well although they grow slowly. At 2 months of age my cacti are about the size of the eraser on a pencil and look like little jelly beans with some sparse hair on their heads. Real cute!
I am loving thease Singapore videos! More please!! I love hearing this mans voice. Hes so calming
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video!
@@sandysoh7592 Hey, could you tell me what species the dark round cacti at 05:44 are?
@@Fepl those are frailea castanea
@@sandysoh7592 Thanks for the quick reply and the nice video. I enjoyed listening to you. I was wondering, do you sell seeds from the super kabuto and fraileas?
@@Fepl I do have seeds for the frailea. Not for the astrophytums
I wish my cat would be good around the plants. She thinks it is a salad bar. She will eat some of everything. I have over 100 air plants up onto the walls, were she can't get to. I just love seeing the birds and cat in the videos. Thank you again.. Summer & Sandy...
azdesertrunner56 grow catnip
They are so cute. Baby cacti hold a special place in my heart.
That man is so clever
Cats and plants, cats and plants 😍
Sandy makes it look so easy!
Sandy's greenhouse is inspiring. Thanks for showing us around.
I'm really loving these videos w/ sandy! I love that u guys are both smiling & not too serious.. It's a joy to watch & I catch myself grinning from ear to ear!! 👍😁👍
Thank you. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously that day. Summer was awesome to work with!
I live in Utah and planted some astrophytums from seed. I follow a bunch of people that grow them in other counties but none of the spoke English. I'm so happy you posted this video!
I grow them in Utah too. I have found that they are susceptible to sunburn in our higher altitude and drier climate. I put them out in the summer, but I have to be very careful, they are the most susceptible to burning when I am introducing them to outdoor conditions as well. I have noticed that they grow really quick when I graft them.
I'm growing Astrophytums this year from seed. They are doing very well for me. I'm from Florida. I post exotic plant videos and a variety of other things too.
Omw, stunning💚. Learnt so much. Just love the versatility of your videos. Keep them coming. ❤️
The cacti are beautiful, but that caudex plant had my attention the whole time! Those leaves look amazing
Cats love garden soil as litter too haha just ask the local stays! Had to put up chicken wire
i’m gonna go visit terrascape because of this series hahaha
Please do. He would love to see you! It's a bit out of the way (the cabbie was afraid he'd get lost), but Sandy gives great directions.
Keep going brother
Well done
Good information on seedling culture. I’ve never grown cacti from seed. I’ve only grown propagated them from cuttings , some as large as five feet tall. I let the cut end dry and callus and then pot the cutting in a sandy, gritty mix or simply stick it in the ground in its permanent location.
I’m about to start doing it myself from seeds.
I loved this video along with the video tour of his nursery. I actually just yesterday ordered both a Stephanie erecta caudix and some astrophytum seeds! It's my first time trying to grow cacti from seed but after seeing this I am excited to try!
Love all the detailed info!
Absolutely beautiful little cacti.
I’m not really a cacti person but these astrophytum are stunning 🤩
Nice video ! .. Thanks for sharing, like so much ..
Wow, what a nice mixture. I should try his mix; I have all those soil amendments, too. I do have about 7 Astrophytum Mysriostigmas growing right now. They are about 20 days old but I can’t wait until they start taking shape!
Oh my gosh summer!! I really love these Cacti and really need these little guys and girls for my collection lol Thank you so much for sharing!! These are stunning! I love all different cacti!😍
They are on record as one of the 3 slowest growing species of cacti they are one of the only one's that grows slower than lophophora so patience is a virtue i thought i was doing something wrong when mine were only half the size of my lophophora at 3 months they were still very small but its natural for them
my most favorite channel .. regards from India
the baby ones are sooo cute
really adorable, right?
Summer Rayne Oakes yesss wish they stayed that way hahaha
Great information!!!
Love love. !!
Ok I didn't like cacti before that video. They are so cute!!!!
Tkanks...
I was not prepared for “assisted plant fornication” 😳
Those frailea at the end of the video are divine. I wish I had that many 😂
I'm not much of a "cacti guy" but I can tell you Sandy's tips here will work nicely for Lithops succulents. Those cats are going potty in style too. Talk about your royal commodes! 😺💩 🚽
Our cats do get unruly sometimes and unearth the plants while they're trying to do potty.
@@sandysoh1742 all plant loving cat owners can relate. I have a very well behaved cat & over 300 plants but I can't grow mint! Wyatt will not bother any of plant including his catnip except for mint. He will dig it up and use it as another litter box every time 😸
@@petercardona1559 haha I know right? They seem to be individually have special preferences.
After 3 years of taking care of them, my astrophytums are still in good conditions 😍😘
Nice 😊
Какая у вас там красота 🤩
Very cool guy 😊👍
Yassss I’m Singaporean😁
That is a lot of Astrophytums. I am propagating cacti as well, Gymnocalycium and Mamillaria, I wish to have that beautiful Astrophytums. I just started collecting them last November of 2019.
Hi, great video. This is just what I needed because I have a box of cactus seeds waiting in my mailbox right now with plenty of Astropytum in it. Any extra advice on growing these would be really appreciated. How long should I leave them covered? I was thinking of trying the “Fleischer Method” on these. But his were so beautiful and well rooted I might have to change my approach to cactus seed starting! Thanks again for the great video!
This was so helpful! I liked him a lot too. Very informative. I want to know what that secret ingredient is!
Hellooooo, very nice video
This video made me buy Super Kabuto and Astro Myriostigma seeds! I really want to see that blob too with my own eyes! Good thing, seeds are very affordable in my country. Thanks for sharing this video.
Update?
Your plant knowledge is amazing how did you learn these plants name
Great video! Does anyone know the name of the plant hanging upside down to the right of his head?
Hi thanks for video. But what is sprinkling of secret ingredient? What he putting on this pot?
I got some opuntia speeds a few years ago and currently have two seedlings, They’re about 1 year old and 10cm in height.
it's a patience game!
It really is!
Where can I get fresh Astrophytum seeds? I've grown lot's of cacti and succulents from seed I just have a hard time finding fresh viable Astrophytum seeds. One of my all time favorite cacti/plants. 😁✌🏼
Don’t mind that secret fertilizer mix 😂
I tried 1 pkt of seeds once and failed hope to try again. As trying to pollinate and get seeds from it i dont have but a couple of cacti just starting maybe someday
When you go to places like this do you ever bring home plants?
I tried to grow cactus from seed this year, they were doing ok at first I actually had little babies pop up but then things took a turn...I just wasn’t sure about care...light, water on such tiny plants and they all turned yellow and then just died. Would love to try again, maybe propagate outside over the summer.
are these the same species we find grafted on top of cactus stems ?
I'd like to know what the substrate is in those background upside down hanging plants. Is it chunky coco?
what was the secret ingredient he placed on the repotted astro, fertilizer? what kind?
😍😍💜💜
Does anyone here know how to propogate peperomia tetragona? I put cuttings in water and roots never seem to form
I have grown ocatillo,giant tree aloe, and barrel cactus, this year from seed, they are so slow, pups or side growths much faster...
what are the very dark, almost black ones at 5:44, Ubelmannia or still some sort of astrophytum? Great video, thanks!
I think they are Frailea castanea
What’s that aloe in the right called??
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💚😊
Oi como que eu faço para conseguir o contato para comprar os cactos
0:11 those are Frailea Castanea.
Hey just show this video. Where is this place in Singapore ?
Do you know the name of the red Aloe plant? And what is the plant on the left? (the one that looks like a ball with very nice green leaves)
Aloe dorotheae and Adenia perrieri.
@@sandysoh7592 thank you!
What’s the cool orange aloe looking plant?
Watering needs ?
Whats the name of the red aloe plant on the right side ?
Aloe dorotheae
Kaka
What are the brown plants at 5:44?
I think it is Frailea castanea.
Name of the plant on their left, one with fat caudex?
Any guesses what the secret ingredient was he put in the pot at 4:29?
slow release fertilizer
It's Osmocote
Thanks folks. I can't find Osmocoat in Canada but I will keep looking.
@@billastell3753 in Canada it might be worth a look in the "hydroponics" stores for a similar formulation of slow release fertilizer. I know for a fact it used to be available in Canada. Might be a duty & taxes issue neighbor.
Soil mix name please
Astrophytes remind me of peyote and they are really hard to keep alive.
I suck at starting from seeds. most seeds I order from china turn out to be weeds or other plants
Order from Thailand.
what did he add on 4:30 ?
Slow release fertiliser
Osmocote
What is that secret ingredients?
Anny one can help me to get me ( aloe bussei ).plant I am from South india
Up cycled cat litter... hahaha why is that cactus so brown? Jokes aside they're awesome specimens
Summer, do you have a Patreon page?
I tried growing some cacti from seed & failed miserably 😭 they were extremely rare (&shan't be named😅) I still think about them sometimes...
Now I'm dying to know what species they were 😂
Lophophera most likely
Evelyn Soh Astrophytum asterias cv. super kabuto is what they were
Pls put always the contact no. of the grower if he is the seller.

What's the secret ingredient? I won't tell anybody...
did he say root mealies? 😳
They didn't propagate shit just repotted a cactus lol
You know how much cactus 30$.
why does he look so knowingly mischievous when he sprinkles that slow gro?
Haha! I've found that it's a great method to help the plants grow faster. Most people just sprinkle the slow release ferts on top of the media. Having some under roots makes dispersion much better.
Nice abs. How you maintain your body?
secret ingredient? wth
Most likely fertilizer and insecticide
Perhaps let the guest speaks more about the topic.
This per spoil your vedio just by saying secret ingredients… we need complete information 😮
What is that secret ingredient he put in the pot?
