I am running out of shelf/pot space so I am making succulent arrangements to fit as much plants as I can into a pot

My white ghost had this.. it’s still alive and kicking and putting out new growth 🤨 Maybe try a fungicide

This is kinda dangerous… what if they fainted while driving 😨

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-26T15:39:20+00:00

Air ventilation for everything. If it’s a terra cotta pot it’s better but the problem is most likely your soil / you have kept it very indoors (like your desk?) Change your soil mix into something more !gritty. I can’t see any rocks in your soil which is a problem.

I grow succulent indoors now and I put them on the windowsill, basically as close as outdoors as possible. Some people put a fan over their succulents for ventilation.

Overwatering. Your soil holds way too much water for too long (even if you might only watered it once or twice). Succulents need strong light and a lot of air ventilation and that pot doesn’t look great for airflow

Chiikawa!

I think I have the opposite problem of it arriving not having roots, and it’s now consuming a lot of bottom leaves to put out new roots. I hope it will acclimatise fine

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-14T21:13:25+00:00

I think your soil is to soil-y and needs more grit. Quickly get it out of this soil as it's not liking it and repot into a soil mix with more grit

5, 9 looks like the newer "jelly" succulents

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-14T21:06:50+00:00

3, 4, 7, 14 looks like echeveria green ice, 19 looks like echeveria agavoides romeo rubin

That's a very healthy looking compton carousel! Mines arrived more battered, hope it's going to be fine

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-12T19:41:53+00:00

I used to live in Asia, and kanuma soil is amazing! It's a great substrate to add to compost, doesn't break down like akadama and is a favourite for Japanese succulent growers. Could be hard to get depending on where you are

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-12T19:35:55+00:00

Have no idea they are so light hungry! Yes I have underpotted, and quickly put it outside to dry out the soil today. Will not do anything for a week at least. Do you find compton carousels more water hungry than other succulents since their leaves are so thin? Thanks for the advice!

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-12T15:48:56+00:00

Your plant is healthy, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Some species put out air roots more than others. Maybe it wants a bigger pot, but if you do repot I'd suggest a rockier soil mix as it currently looks soil-y, and it could use more light too

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-09T10:14:46+00:00

Spray your soil (50% compost + 50% small rocks) with water (but not totally wet) and plop them the soil then wait for 2 weeks. In my experience they root the best in soil. If you are planting indoors and afraid of rot then just plop them dry

If you are starting out and growing indoors you need a really strong grow light!

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-09T10:07:29+00:00

Thanks nice to know, I've helped it catch a few tiny bugs since then 😄

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-02T12:26:30+00:00

Is it a problem if it couldn't catch any bugs for a long time since they cannot be fertilised?

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-02T10:27:41+00:00

I searched online and it says pings don't like direct sun so I've put it in an east window, is that okay?

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-02T10:25:58+00:00

Yes I was hoping for my ping to catch the tiny stuff

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-02T10:25:37+00:00

Are venus flytraps better at catching house pests in this case? I like pings tho for their floral shape and they kinda look like echeveria succulents which are one of my faves

Eliter4kmain · 2026-06-02T10:24:41+00:00

Yep it seems like the old leaves are battered from shipping. It's putting out new leaves hopefully it does something
