Baby Making Succulents Vlog 189 Growing Succulents With Lizk

This is my Echeveria torus. This is actually a baby of a very prolific mother and this is I think the second last. Well this is one of the baby propagated and one that was grown from a head chop chop is those two and I need to put this in here in my way when I go back in so I can repot them. And this pot is not an arrangement but more a combination of different plants that I have grown. This is Tinkerbell, Echeveria Tinkerbell variegated. This is actually my mother plant that has produced so many babies and these ones here are Pink Dragon, three of them I've separated and propagated this is actually grown from a plant I bought last year and so this has now seen second winter in my care and from one plant to many many and one of them actually variegated so that's the reason why I separated it and these ones are newly acquired this is a gift from my friend and what are you called Dr Cornelius Echeveria and these three are Roulette that I recently purchased and also the Black Queen which is still chubby and small I got them because they're cheap and planted them in the soil here which is really really dry and because we had minus five this morning I am not going to water them for a while. Our forecast last night or yesterday was minus one for this morning and as it turned out we had minus five and this Repsalis or should I say Pachyptera so what it is I had this growing outside under the tree or my elm tree which is now lost all its leaves and I thought I'll put it here in my shade cloth area so this is 50% UV shade cloth the best spot to grow a lot of succulents but I had my Ionium my Pinkwich growing in here before where the Echeveria Lola is now and a couple of this green looking newly acquired when I say newly acquired this one I actually acquired this one about six months ago from December these plants here or this pot here and this one was only about three four months ago and that's why they're not very colorful yet because I haven't exposed them to the sun or I'm still growing them so in growing a lot of these succulents I first put them in a lot of soil this one is actually really really really wet and which is not good because it creates a lot of powdery mildew or fungus at the moment it's just rampant that's the effect of the fungus on this Joanne Daniel and you can see on that one that I can't remember what your name is but what I've been using so far is Tomato Insect and Fungus Spray and it seems to do the job so see like even that one so those white dots there on the Joanne Daniel and also this I can't remember what you are maybe Mini Bell variegated and there's some issues going on in there so I just spray them all best to spray it first thing in the morning or late afternoon like right now it's four o'clock and it's almost getting darker the sun is getting shorter oh look my Pudgy that has dropped its leaves again and look it's just sitting there and look at that the roots are forming from the top and you could easily remove that and that's probably produce a baby underneath there but anyway speaking of babies before I get to the babies this pink witch was there where it was where the Lola was and look what happened to it it got hit this is yesterday we had minus four in the morning and this morning we had minus five so at minus four minus three minus four even at the 50 percent UV shade cloth area that's what happened oh poor pink witch but I got a lot more pink witch that are looking a little bit better than this one which is this one's here so I save this one's here for safekeeping so they're happy where they are here overhead protection from the top to down so that you can't settle down on them therefore no frosting and dying now in this corner is my other pink witch which I already put in there at the 50 UV shade cloth area and at minus three and four that's what happened because I took this out this is actually in a new video two videos ago which I have done this and poor thing now I put it back here in my alferezco area where it's protected so this is where I'm gonna leave them now for the of winter so it's still autumn here this has been like seven degrees colder on our average autumn temperature so it's been really really cold so maybe in winter it's going to be warmer it's going to adjust itself but so far my ioniums are feeling it feel the cold over here on this I am really really worried about my graptopetalum superbum or superbum here and she's doing fine in here no softness no frostbite even this ionium here you can see that it's sort of getting a little bit cool I think on the edges when I say cool it got slightly affected by the frost but I think that's the best way to acclimate them but I find that ionium doesn't acclimate very well so they will still get hammered by the frost and this is the reason why I've created this zone here to grow all these ioniums look at them and also yes my medusa look what happened to my medusa oh my goodness it's putting out it was going funny color I thought at the top but now it's because it's putting out babies look at that so many babies maybe I should remove the top to free up the babies to let them grow but I will do that in another video and over here as well my red something red this one red red garnet this red garnet which is pink this also is producing babies look let's go have a peep peep peep peep peep peep look at me peepee I'm happy today because we had some nice pork sandwiches well it was leftover pork from last night but it was just so nice the sauce got apple sauce and never mind talking about food making me hungry but anyway let's go back to propagation let's play a guessing game what sort of succulent is this can you tell I'm going to put it next to my variegated prolifica look can you tell and also I have another prolifica is that a prolifica I think that might be a tinkerbell sorry but anywho this is Echeveria prolifica and this is quite large so I'm going to put my hand I can only compare it to my thumb so my thumb is much much much smaller compared to this plant now this one this specific plant in this specific pot I'm gonna hang on let's move the lucila beautiful lucila you can move out of the limelight I'm going to put you down here I've got a tweezer and I'm not afraid to use it now this one actually I grew this one from a plant let's just compare it first to a plant that size here I'm gonna pull this out just so you can see it's actually slightly smaller than this one look at all the babies in the bottom never mind we're gonna shake the babies off look like that like so like so I should really do a couple of these but anyway so those those ones there even that small one there uh slightly bigger than my thumb now I'm gonna take all of them oh there's more here I didn't even notice those ones and I'm gonna propagate them and grow them into from that small to say four or five months later to that big because this is what I've been doing Echeveria prolifica is called prolifica for the reason that it's a prolific grower which means it produces lots and lots of babies the minute you breathe on it a leaf drops it grows to all these little babies here that you see they're all just little prolificas growing there but we don't want them so this one has got a nice red tinge so I would really like to keep that one but since it's coming from the side of the mother from the mother's ribs we're going to ribs move it from its rib come on ah okay it doesn't matter we'll drop that there I was trying to get it as a whole but it's hard when you're doing the video but never mind it's okay no problem now that one there as well we remove it because I'm just gonna stab it okay don't hurt the mama there you go just drop where did you go never mind fell off the bin here now we have to remove this so that way it will dry up and the mother can get its figure back so it's gonna be sexy again so we'll remove that one as much as possible and so now this will retract or come back to itself forming like this and this one too we remove so the mother will oh like that's nice now this one I really want to grow that one from that and there's another little one growing there can you see that one there okay I'm not going to remove that because it's too small still I'm going to hurt the mother so I'm just going to leave it for a while so this one now can correct itself and grow normal okay so that's with prolifica other succulents like say this is echeveria this is echeveria this or that one the crispate beauty is also an echeveria but they are loners loners they will pop up eventually but very very hardly so even this one this is a gavoidis pink pretty in pink sorry and that one bordeaux I think or something yes that one is also a lona it will grow pups eventually but takes a long time so that one the red gilva you can see that got pups in the bottom but they tend to that one actually pup producing but that's already big plant so this one is small plant and also that one the moon something blue moon or something nevermind it's got a moon in its name it's variegated okay I have to go look at the blood moon I knew there's a moon somewhere anyway that one is only growing pups on the side very rarely as well so they do grow but prolifica is just a serial papa it will just put up babies like you would not believe so if you were to keep only one succulent and fill up your garden with beautiful succulents I would highly suggest getting an echeveria prolifica very easy to grow you don't even have to grow it you just throw it in the ground and they will grow like say for example oh did I clean it out oh yes those ones there see the leaves just drop then look you're gonna look I did not glue that that just the leaves like those ones they drop and then they grow and then I put it here and then just drop them there and then they grow that's all you got to do with them after doing this I really want to try and grow this one because this is the first time I have seen the prolifica color up like this and I have a very very special plant called echeveria monroe cross prolifica okay this one is grown in my 50% UV shade growth area I can actually put it outside with minus 11 they don't get affected by the frost at all but I like to keep an eye on it or else if I put it outside I will forget so this way in here I can keep an eye and remove the babies when they come now this one now looking at this one okay look at the shape of that one this is monroe cross prolifica I was hoping that this one I only bought this about a month ago and so it probably doesn't even have roots and as per usual I did not water it no watering uh noragarden89 on facebook said that there's a lady who bought some plants from her and she's bought these plants for me thank you so much Helena or Helena beautiful beautiful floridity and cordyroyal crest thank you so so so so so much also I've left room for another plant I want to put in there so now this one now I'm hoping that they will grow like this one and so I'm gonna take this inside and if I don't get hopefully then it will grow this pot was my recent acquisition as well and this is quite in a protected area because this is inside my 50% UV shade cloth area so you've got shelves here and you've got the shade cloth just slowly gonna pan it okay so there is nowhere a bird can come in here even there already put some sticks in there which hasn't been touched and there's a very very small gap in there for the birds to fly in they really have to know their way around to navigate through here and get out alive basically but so from there it's all full so I don't know where they're coming in and look what they've done to my cocktail sticks toothpicks so I put the toothpicks to hold the plants in because they haven't rooted yet and this is only a plant hold from about a month ago and so they haven't rooted because it's cold and so I put some sticks around it like say every one of them I normally put three and what happens some of them are missing and look been hacked so there's a tiny little bird that comes around and probably gathering this to put in the nest some already missing see look and that one look at that tried to bite it but anyway that's all I've got for this video folks I'm gonna bid you adieu because the sun is now well and truly sort of down I think it's about 4 20 and it's already getting dark and the dark side I have to go inside and have my coffee I haven't shown you what I've been eating lately because I'm full I've been having lots of lunch and I'm trying to avoid eating too many sweets because I am sweet enough anyway guys thank you so much for watching and hopefully I'll see you on the next video yes maybe on the next video I'll show you which one I am torturing out in the element and which one I am I growing inside my grow tent that is with the pretty pretty expensive variegated very special plants I should say anorexic plants oh no I forgot my sedum clavatum variegatum oh are you alive still yes did not get affected by the frost are you okay you're not gonna die on me oh you're so beautiful you are gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous look at you you're beautiful one okay now you can go back there I'm not gonna move you anymore but anyway oh my goodness so many plants so many beautiful beautiful beautiful plants
