I've grown succulents for 6 years. Your suggestions are really true and helpful. Growing succulents is fun and shouldn't be stressful. For me, I'd like try some different container for them and sometimes magic would happen and I'm really enjoy it. Thanks for your share. Looking forward to your next 10 years share. Ken

I love the succulent tracker app. Since I've been using it, my succulents & cacti are healthier and I've had less accidental rotting and it's inexpensive too. I love the way I can get support if I have a question about how to use a feature on the app.

Love the video! I’ve been collecting succulents and tropical house plants for 4 years now and love it!

I love those little square pots you have! Where can I find one!? 😊

[thomasg.eddleman]

I’ve learned a little bit more than I already knew. I look at the root structure when I’m repotting. They either have hair like or have real roots.

[Aresevera]

What a nice video!!! I’m having new challenges - the soil sold as “succulent and cactus” is no different than my raised bed soil. I really need to find some like yours.

[twosongbirdspress]

Cassidy, I notice you always use small pots. Why not put a bunch of the same type of succulent together in a larger pot?

[CleoGravel]

How do you know when to water your succulents with the potting soil you use 😊thanks for sharing 😊

[Tazylou]

Thanks for the video. I have 2 questions. If I use gritty sand for my succulent, than, the water don't stay at all, and you say that we should water when the soil is dry. but, with gritty, the soil will always be dry no ? and last question, I heard someone who use non clumping cat litter as sand. Is it really good ? thanks a lot.

I use Bonsai Jacks gritty mix. I've got a bunch of Snappy Pots, but I can't get some of the snaps to stay on. Also, I've ordered a few of Susan Acsh pots. I had to order a grow light. I'm having problems with watering them. I'm afraid to water my succulents and tend to let them dry out too much. I wait until the soil is completely dry before I water them, but they're not surviving. It seems like I can't find an equal solution to keep them alive. I've got the succulent tracker, but it only has enough space for a few succulents and then I have to purchase more space to add more succulents. I don't like apps with "in -purchase" included.

Don’t buy too many succulents at once.

Me: just bought 50 at Home Depot and 25 online.
