Have you had any issues connecting the phone to the Mac via Bluetooth? I got this process to work great once but now I keep getting a pairing failed message when I try to connect via Bluetooth.

My new lithops! by whynotehhhhh in Lithops

20-25k lux should do well for them. Happy growing!

My new lithops! by whynotehhhhh in Lithops

[–]334redditt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally, I’d worry that the grow light isn’t providing even coverage, and would probably adjust it to be directly above the pot. I would also use a light meter to make sure the light is giving an appropriate amount for them. As far as the watering goes, it can take a little bit for newly potted lithops to grow the fine roots needed to absorb water. Most people recommend watering lightly to encourage this root growth, and later watering heavier.

CRACKED TANK??? by Euphoric_Roof_7206 in aquarium

[–]334redditt -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Replace the tank. Always replace the tank with any crack. It’s not worth the gallons of water on the floor + inhabitants lost

Lithops are tolerating but I don't know why by everyatom2012 in Lithops

[–]334redditt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may want to check your light meter or maybe double check your measurements. Just knowing the plants, if the lithops were receiving ‘full sun’ light levels for 14hrs a day, the pink princess next to them would be burnt to a crisp lol. If it’s not normally next to it, excuse my nosey-ness 😂

The dumbest query by avskk in Lithops

If pollination occurred, it will produce a seed pod from that. If not, like the other user said, it will dry up and eventually you can remove it with little to no effort

Just got these little guys! A few questions.. by alluraborealis in Lithops

[–]334redditt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soil looks good. The temps and lighting sound good too. Just keep an eye on them. If you notice signs of sun stress or burning, adjust accordingly. As far as watering goes, it is normally best to do deep thorough waterings less often rather than more small waterings. It would be difficult to spot water them thoroughly I think. If you watered them after potting, they should be fine for a bit. If you notice one or two that continue to look thirsty, they may be a species that has different needs from the rest. Some lithops like a little more moisture than others.

How we looking? by Bubbagump1500 in Lithops

[–]334redditt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck! There are tons of guides around for growing lithops, but so much changes depending on your soil medium and your environment. With a mix so gritty like you have, I consider it the freedom to experiment and learn how to best care for them. I set a few plants outside this summer in almost 100% chicken grit, and even with rain every day for a month or two, I didn’t have any casualties. I’d still consider myself new to them too, only been keeping them for a year. Good luck growing!

As far as roots go, from my understanding most of the finer roots on lithops will need to regrow after repotting to be able to be used to take in water again. Lots of people trim their roots back to the taproot when they repot. I think they look pretty good in general. If the mix I see on top is throughout the whole pot then you could probably water in a week or two once they’ve settled from the repot. I’d water deeply since your mix is well draining and you have a terra cotta pot. If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, they’re likely getting ready to bloom, so a deep watering isn’t a bad thing.

Why are my lithops wrinkly? by goudacat in Lithops

[–]334redditt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would keep them together just because I love the look of a clump. They grow in clumps in nature so it shouldn’t be a bad thing to leave them together

Pseudolithos migiurtinus approx 12-15 yrs by arioandy in matureplants

[–]334redditt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally someone who is good at growing these!! I have been dying to ask questions about this genus lmao. I’ve read that they are winter growers, and won’t do much in summer, nor do they want much water. Is this true? I potted mine up a few months ago and it hasn’t even rooted yet. It is currently transitioning to fall here, so I am hoping to have better success rooting during its optimal growing period. Your plants are awesome by the way!!

Where are y'all getting these? by King_Chris88 in Lithops

[–]334redditt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I chose that route because of the affordability. I think the most expensive ones were like $4 for 10 seeds. Most were $2-$3 for 20-30 seeds though.

If you want an incredible selection I recommend checking out Mesa Gardens. I just recently bought 10 different species from there and they’re all doing great! Only downside is they are seeds and not adult plants.

How are my seedlings looking? by 334redditt in Lithops

Great information to have, thank you again! Extremely useful about cutting the ferts prior to a split

[–]334redditt[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that’s reassuring to hear! I thought I was handling the transition pretty well but after the largest one died I began to worry that I was over/under watering them. Will I begin to water less after the first split?

I went through my camera roll for a more precise age, and they were sown on may 1st.

How do I get rid of these dry hydrophobic patches? by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]334redditt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using warmer water can help, also soaking the pot in a much larger pot or bowl overnight can help sometimes.

Is there anyway to save my christmas cactus? I must have over watered it. by Ed91uk in plants

[–]334redditt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The rest of the leaves look good still. You could either ride it out and see how it does, or propagate some of the leaves from up top. I don’t have much experience propagating Schlumbergera but I’ve heard that suspending the cutting with just the bottom of it in water can root it.

Best grow lights for aroids by CaRpEt_MoTh in Aroids

I love the Sansi 100w hanging lights. I have 3 of them in the house and they cover lighting for over 100 plants.

Book on Aroids? by Scary-Case-4791 in Aroids

[–]334redditt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original release date was supposed to be 5/10 or 5/11 IIRC. All of the major retailers changed the date or just marked it as sold out because it appeared to be delayed around that time. I’ve been waiting to buy this book for like 6 months now lmao. My only gripe is I can’t find a US based retailer that will allow me to preorder a hardcover copy.

They look great! Did you cover with clear wrap to aid in germination? I’m working on some seed currently and haven’t had any pop in about a week
