Hellow to all my fellow gardener in the world, how are your garden today?
I am hoping they are still healthy and neat.
So in this content i want to update my garden after 1 month i take care my succulent garden in my backyard. For your information, i live in Indonesia where the country has just 2 season that is rainy season and dry season. Starting June here comes dry season, so there is no rain at all in one month. For my succulent garden, this is the best season. Weather and temperature is hot and dry so i can make arrangement of reguler watering. If the weather is very hot like touching 38-40 C Degrees i can do reguler watering around 3 or 4 days once. if the temperature just only 28-34 C Degrees i will do reguler watering once in a week.
In my succulent garden it seems more lusting in Dry season than in wet season, wet and damp can make my succulent got fungi or virus or maybe bacteria that can kill my succulent or cactus.
in this content i want to share my update special to my Gymnocalycium Damsii variegata that i adopt aprobably a month ago or so. i wrote about this cactus once in my content you can see it here
This is the new look after entering dry season in my country. The colour of the body seems more lustfull and the body more bulking than the first arrived. i know that this cactus is very like with the sunrays and hot temperature, Fortunately i am living in very hot area in Indonesia called Surabaya city. when comes at noon the temperature can reach around 41 C Degrees. and having average around 36-38 C Degree which is making the variegata cactus will be gain more red and yellowish colour on their body.
But, even they love sun rays, we need watching and take care about the reguler watering. they still need water to regain water in their body.
This cactus will saving more water from their root and keep it in the main core of the body. thats make this cactus can survive long enough in this heat and without water. About the fertilizer, i can say they dont need and dont like too much fertilizer in their growing bed. So, i am using fertilizer like just garden soil combined with roasted husk and cocopeat just it and no more additional fertilizer needed. For additional info, in my country dry season will inviting insects like ants or lice or bugs to make nest in this soil. If the insects is just like ants or bugs i think it will be okay, but if they are bring company like mealy bugs or spider mites., i think you need to using pesticide to kill the bugs or they will gnaw the core of the cactus and make the cactus die. Thats it for my update about one of the cactus in my mini succulent garden.
Lets see the comparison when this Gymnocalycium Damsii Variegata first planting and compared in the picture above.
Okay for additional i will sharing my other cactus that make me happy about how they are growing more lustfull lately.
I am very love this cactus called Gymnocalycium hybrid variegata the shape and the colour of this cactus is vibrant, green and red combined like this is very pretty.
And the second that make me happy is the progress of the grafting cactus called **Astrophytum Asterias Vtype) even this cactus is small but this cactus ready to be a mom, this cactus seems growing 2 baby kid in their body. i will waiting growing until 2-3 cm and then cut the kiddos and grafting it again.
And the third is my succulent plant called Euphorbia Francoisii Hybrid i have this plant maybe around 5 years ago and just having 2 leaves when the first time adopt it. and now the grow very compact and almost every 3 or 4 months once this plants will flowering. But due the lack of information about how to pollination this plant. i am never look this plant can make seed.
and the last i want to share is succulent called Haworthia Yuki Genshiki when i brought from my hometown this succulent started to shrink and just having 1 plant in this pot, after surive and thriving around 1 year. this plant now having 3 plants and the leaves is very strong and solid. the colour of the leaf is very beautifull. but this plants still not in the best performance, i know so because 2 years ago i remember this plant have pretty good leaf with having sprinkle of white dotted like snow. thats why this plant called Yuki in their leaves will appear white line and white bold dotted around.
In the end of this content i am sorry if my english leanguage is not very good and my grammar is not very good. And thank you to all my fellow gardener friends that support my content. especially for
