to the tips the
golden tips folks
Valuable tips so you can spend
the summer with
your little plants
and give them a minimum of
comfort during this difficult time
Growing succulents in the
summer is a
common question
but succulents are not
plants of dry
and hot climates
Why are succulents
so difficult
to grow in the summer It'
s because our climate is not
the same as their native one
The succulents
are plants
from a drier climate
some of them grow even
if we look for them
They are born in the middle of the rock
from the earth but the climate there is
a completely different
climate from here
in Brazil here we have a very climate
Cool and warm during the
day warm at night while the
succulents are
from climates
that are warm during the day
but at night they get cooler
so the climate is different
the climate is different
from where they are from
They have many that adapt very
well here in Brazil with us and
there are others
that suffer a lot
there are some that practically
It's almost impossible to
cultivate but
we'll manage
finding a way here and
there we'll keep learning
They are there and
go at least trying
to give them some comfort during
this difficult time here people I
have a pot with the albicans look how
The most beautiful thing
then one of the tips
most important
I think this one
is the first one I will leave and it is
the most important tip
for you
May have a nice pot or at
least give your succulent some
comfort during the summer so
that it can get
through the summer
It's the transplant
here I have it it 's
beautiful look how beautiful it is
but it's already time for me to do
this transplant or I do the transplant
whether I do it or not
a good fertilizer is
essential for
the plant to
develop or
for it to grow
Keep them because often the
plant will go into dormancy
because we sometimes suffer
from so many losses of our cuties
In summer because there is a
lot of people when they go into
hibernation their development
is much slower
and if it happens
They will not be harmed or
pass through a very hot period
which will cause
them to develop
even more slowly and often
They cannot even recover
if they get sick they
cannot recover and fertilization
comes to strengthen
Just like we sometimes
need to supplement our
vitamins especially for
those over fifty
right people
Stop here what can we do
We have to supplement our
vitamins because otherwise we can't even get up
From the bed to go to work then
the same thing are the seedlings
they do need
to supplement their vitamins
so that they can
They are even more like
that now I'm talking about
succulents at the time people in that climate
often more arid or a
more severe climate
Hot as there are many people I
still my garden is here in the
south we have the
coolest part of
the year now there are the people
Many of the people here who complain
so much why Because people live
there up north in the country so
there it's really
a war all year long
I wonder how hard
it is for you to
grow succulents in
a climate that's ho
The whole year is like that there 's
no relief at all so we get
worried about it that's why we're
bringing you tips and I hope tha
May these tips help
you then the second tip would
be fertilization and
what type of fertilizer can I be
using I am always recommending NPK
10-10-10 but why
10-10-10 NPK
Because it'
s an easily available
chemical fertilizer
The price is also much more
affordable you can find it at
agropecuárias and floriculturas
you can also buy them there
Through sites like here people now
we have the news
here on the channel
of Profi Rodinha where we have the
shopping there we have some sales
supplies I use here in
my garden such as pots
fungicides insecticides to
be treating our
little plants
And we also have the fertilizations
so if you want to take a look
without any commitment
maybe one of them
The interest fits in your
pocket if you want to do the
shopping we really appreciate it
you will be helping the channel
It's not much but we have
some money there to be
able to buy supplies here
for our beauties
so the NPK
He is wonderful
we have other numbers
we have the 4-14-8 which is wonderful
The 4-14-8 is a flower stimulator
for those who like
flowering it is
Amazing but the 10-10-10 is
also amazing He is a fertilizer
there that is amazing for
those who are just starting
And for those who have been around for many years like Profi Rodinha and who
uses it a lot here I have one here it's
the Very Green Prince I'm looking at it
She's wonderful it was already
time for maintenance but there
are other little plants there
that are on the verge of death
Then we are making a selection
of which ones we
do first and then
another maintenance that I do
quite a bit here
with my succulents
It's the
cleanliness of the
counters you can
see here that
a lot of leaves tree leaves
flower petals and dust fall
Because sometimes we have many hot days there is a lot of dust on the road I
live in the
countryside so it's not paved
The road here in front of
the house is far but the
wind always brings a little
dust and the very same
When the succulent leaves start
to wither and fall then we have
to be constantly doing this
maintenance and another importance
For cleaning the counters
which I highly
recommend now
during the summer many times
we have a lot of
spider activity
The spiders are
unfortunate especially the
small ones that hide
inside the pot they bring
Diseases for our little
plants for our succulents
which cause our little
plants to get
sick last year
I lost quite a few seedlings
because of that sometimes we took a
long time to do
this maintenance and
cleaning because
Often we clean here on
the counter everything
is neat but sometimes
they hide inside the toilet
As I told you we can't see them because they are
very tiny during the night
they go out and do the work
They hide during the day
they hide a pot like this here has a way to hide
they hide under the leaves
The succulents that have more
layers sometimes get filled up
and when we see
it the plant is already taken by the disease
And when we see it we lose it
there goes our cuteness as I
was saying the name of this
disease that the spiders bring
and they infect there
our little plants it's
the mite it's the spider
mite where they hide
Under the leaves we have to be always
looking as I told you
they are very tiny
What do they do They suck the
plant's sap causing the plant to
turn yellow and develop a silvery
appearance and then the leaves
They start to fall they start
to rot and before you know it the
seedling is gone
and it's very
hard to save the seedling from the mite
Here for now this
year this counter here
is new so here on the counters here on
the street it's more
difficult to happen
what happens more this type of attack
In my succulent plants that are here
at the house's porch even more so
because my house is made of wood and
those who have wooden houses and live
No interior you
know how much we
have to work
cleaning the house
every year because there's a
lot of insect activity at night
And that's what happens like wood
it adheres better this kind of
thing so we have to be constantly
doing maintenance always doing it
A limpeza você está vendo
aqui já são teias de aranha
às vezes as aranhas elas não
ficam aqui elas se escondem
behind here on the beam
sometimes they migrate to
the small pipes so that
can happen ah but my house
It's brick Ruth it's all brick
but it also happens because I
also had that in my house in
the city in my house in the city
The era of masonry and also
happened that the seedlings
were attacked by mites
then suddenly a wooden house
People it's going to have a higher
incidence right with
the mite the brick
house is going to have less all of
this will depend on where you live
How often you clean the
counters then it's pointless
for us to have the little
plants inside the house
We have to clean every
week inside the house
so outside of course we
won't do it every week
Born but people need
an organization to
do this cleaning so
that the mites don't
They bloom no our little
plants and we don't lose them
this summer I'm already
planning I'll take some there
Days to do a
good cleaning and
maybe also fumigate the house
outside so that it gets rid
of all kinds of
pests that also
They are not only good for the
little plants but also for our health
right for the human being look at
this beautiful thing people here I have
A equeveria with a golden glow which
is in the shape of a shrub look at
how beautiful another very important
maintenance people I already you know
I did it I started
doing it it 's
the removal of some species
of succulents that I grow
during the autumn and winter
Until spring people I can grow them here I take them
from here and I take them to
a cooler place let them stay
There I was showing you the beauties I took here
look I was growing them
right here in this corner
I placed other pots there that
I made maintenance because here
it won't get direct light right
people it will get indirect so
Here they were here
but these past days
we had a day that gave
37 degrees with a heat
index over 40 and it was
really hard
we saw that the
little plant felt a lot so
If it was hard for a human imagine
how hard it was for a sensitive plant
right people so I took it out and took it to a better place
A cooler spot here in my garden
so people this isn't as nice a place
as the one in front is it
But here I have some
foliage and I brought here
my eonios my eonios
suffered a lot last year
Then I had already
taken precautions
brought him here before we
saw that he was already suffering
a bit so we brought him here
And what I did too people some I
changed the substrate it's been
a short time since I changed it
and others I changed the substrate
Then I will show you that
there are some more pots that I
placed in another space here I
put a little bit of fertilizer
I added a little fertilizer
to them and they will
stay here for example
this one is a tree right
Here the tree is still here I
didn't change the base I just
filled it here with the stakes
you see I put a lot of stakes here
This number here people
if I'm not mistaken it's 15
15 or 8 now I won't remember the numbering properly
but it's a slightly different numbering
but he's also great
Very good the important thing is
the first number
when you are buying
your fertilizer
both the NPK and the
numbers should not be a numbering
Very high the first
if it is it will be used more in
the garden and with
garden flowers
with garden flowers in the garden
When the first numbering
is N it is larger it's
great right For garden
and for vegetable patch
Already for the succulents
it's not that much can you use
it You can Has the little fruit already used it I used it
But then you have to use it very
little you really have to use
it very little if you use too
much then you might have a problem
I put them here which is a
cooler nicer place look at this
deliciousness and also something
else I will arrange people
The next few days here it's the shadowy one I've
said this in other videos
I'm saying we're going to
As I told you now
we're going to talk a lot about it right
Because we haven't had the time
yet but we have other things
Priorities right And it 's
okay to make it
like that but I'll put the smudge here I use red
Ah but why do you wear red
Because red gets more sun
Exactly people I already
tried wearing black here
And it didn't work out the black for me
here is too much Even
if he right It was a
Because people have 50%
75% others have 30% but
it also didn't work out
right So 50%
the red one
It was the ideal one
which worked very well
so that's the one I'm
using okay that I use
red 50% so
they become colorful
so they become protected from the sun
strong and so they become
Compact and beautiful so now
here will be the new place the
new little house here for my
eonies at least until then now
We are in December January February
March April
it's April and then they start leaving here people
It's a really long period right
summer
because summer right it gets very hot
they require they need
Take care and here I have
another little corner people I
put two pots here here I changed
the soil actually here eve
I only had this one which is
Gobin right Gobin and I put
the western one here next to
it for now they'll go there
Stay here I want them to
take the rainwater because
I did the transplant right
The repotting actually
Plant it again here too I
changed the substrate also
which here is Havorti we are
doing these experiments right
Switching the substrate right now
to see how they react and it's
really cool here right It's nice
if we see that it doesn't work
Sure here we exchange because it's a little corner there
which we always have these
little corners right In our house
It's not supposed to be that
beautiful a song right people If it can be
made beautiful that's great but if not that's okay
The important thing
is the
plant's well-being right Here I have this
Here identification is quite
different people this Eônia here
he is quite different from the
Havorti it's Eônia and the Havorti
It is a type of
species Web and
Bertel it stays in the winter it turns a slightly greener
color than Havorti
it has leaves
As thick as the Havorti
also he looks very similar to the Havorti
now right but he's different
and here I have
The outro of the Arborense which
I already changed the entire
substrate look how it's all
closed up it was in full sun
What's the most beautiful thing right
It's very pretty but he's suffering
When he's like that very closed
off because he's not feeling well
That's why I changed the substrate here and they
will stay here under these
trees in this corner here
It's very fresh and tasty
and it's practically
shaded all day long my
little sedums also people were
I brought some over there
I changed some of them I
did maintenance on others
and I just brought some here
I
just did the fertilization
there for now they will
stay here here I have a
huge manacá da serra tree
He casts a lot of shade now
in the morning he gets a little
sun and in the afternoon
they stay in that shaded area
And also people what is going to happen
here This weed is going to grow I'm
going to let it grow cover everything
here and they will basically be left
It's just a
bit shaded here
you know so
it's important
to do it this way here
we have the sedum major
I replanted it it's taking
root still almost
gone you see
I put some soil here on top
it stays right there really
He goes into hibernation he becomes very
small so we have to be
careful with this one
Sedum coral is amazing I
already did the maintenance
folks a little while ago
look how important it is
But then as I told
you we have time
and often our time
is very limited
I needed to have done this
maintenance here with this
sedum at least a month ago
if I had done it in November
He was already well established he
was already a bit
more presentable and
he wasn't that bad actually not that
damaged I'll say
that's the right word
Damaged now he
would already be
more rooted and
strong to withstand
the summer so here I brought
the Macnoi variegata everyone
Here is mine too
the isultum brought
it here these people here still
I think about doing some maintenance
brought them here left them here
Surely I will take those little
ones there and do some maintenance
on them do some maintenance with
them so this is already another one
Maintenance changing the environment
since I couldn't touch all the
pots but at least changing
their environment taking
them out of the sun
It's in front of my garden which
is very sunny for a much cooler
environment and so we notice it'
s clear especially
in the morning
In the afternoon when we come
here in this place that's behind
the back of my house it's much
cooler you feel a cooler breeze
Then it's a favorable environment for
them I know I've already
shown this beauty
in other videos but there are people who
don't watch all of Profirrutinha's videos
Who helps people
All videos from Profirrutinha
Leave it to us in the comments
So this is the flowering of Tacitus Bellus
One of the most beautiful blooms
of succulents I have ever seen in
my opinion look at this beautiful
thing this is the
Tacitus it has two
wo floral stems are two floral
stems here I have another
Tacitus Bellus she is holding
a baby here she
felt a little b
She has some
slightly burned tips Look
This was a sunny day
the pot was a bit drier
and it burned
so it's already time
for Ruth to put it here
e red shadow
let me show you
for those who don't know the greenhouse
it's a very simple thing
My husband only extended
them here These are dowels
The plastic I use on top is
the kind of plastic we buy
All tablecloths
then I always ask for the thickest ones
the thickest available
they already come in this width
the size here
My husband already measured the
exact width of the plastic and the
length we buy is whatever length
we have and whatever space we built
In this case around 8 meters
whenever I buy I
think it should be 7
meters here because I buy 8 and
there's always a little bit left over
What I'm going to do now is
here below when I put it I'
ll show it
I think until Christmas today is December 17th
Until Christmas I put up
I come here to show you
there's no secret
I put nails here
and I'm just going to
placing them in the small hole
It's very easy to put on I always put it on myself and take it off myself because
it' s short enough for me to reach and if it
were very high I wouldn 't
be able to reach it
Then I do this maintenance myself and it'
s important for them especially since they
are succulents that are more sensitive these
ones I have here especially at the back
They are behind us they
are back there but even so
if we don't put on the
sunscreen they feel it a lot
And look there people we're looking from here
the flowering of Tacitus Velus
what a beautiful thing and another maintenance that I'm going to show you here
If they don't clean up the
mess here is my
messy workbench
for doing the replanting and
maintenance on my little plants
It was the decapitation that I did
people in my gibbon flowers
I have some gibbon flowers
not many
if you remember
I have them on a shelf in front of the house
so I decapitated all of them
15 days ago
and look they've already started
The roots are growing
then yesterday
I already started
here there I leave
it like that while they are not in
roots I leave them inside the pot
It has others
this is a marrogane hybrid
in an empty pot
nothing inside
it also has a small root
this one is from Suion
I leave it like this
They were all there in front
I left them all there in front
and yesterday I started putting them inside the pot
I did the transplant
Look how beautiful they are
I finished last night around
7 PM Now I'm going to see a place Not with
very strong sun
For them not to burn once
they are well rooted it will
take another 15 or 20 days
here then I will come back
Bring them to the same place
where they were always
look at these cuties
just to get them like this
more compact not to become too leggy
Look at these beautiful ones
this one is a hybrid of the sun's shine
this is another maintenance I did
the decapitation
In my gifting
flowers I had already
done it around the
month of October
November unfortunately there wasn't
enough time I was taking it slowly
It was a morning when it arrived now
I have nothing to do I will cut them
all I left the correct identification
inside the pot this
one doesn't have it
But I always left
the identification
inside the pot here I think
there is the can
here it still
needs to be replanted so I cut
She also has roots
they are all
15 days they have already come out
but as I told you
I left them here in front
Let me show you here what happened
they stayed here inside those
little pots even without
substrate here in the morning it's kind of shaded
Grab a little bit of sun as the
sun comes up here
when it arrives
here then they would get the sun
and when it reached
the afternoon su
It was shaded again there where it worked
well they took root and
now we are replanting
I hope you enjoyed the video
today I left some maintenance
work that are being done here
in my garden
