STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL ON PROPAGATING SUCCULENTS FROM LEAVES-FULL INFORMATION
Propagating succulents from leaves is a simple project that requires a few steps and a couple supplies. After cutting off a healthy leaf, the leaf will naturally sprout new roots, and a new plant will grow from these roots. Succulents make an excellent gift, are a great way to welcome somebody new to the neighborhood, and can be exchanged between friends and fellow gardeners. It is easy to propagate new succulents from leaves, but because not every leaf will take, you should try rooting at least 5-6 leaves at a time.

DAIZZ’S TIPS:-
Step by step: How to grow succulents from cuttings

Remove the lower leaves

Chop the remaining rosette from the stem
Let all the parts dry out and create a callous where they’ve been removed
Place on top of soil until roots and baby plants start forming
Remove the original leaf and plant the new offspring, as well as the original rosette – tada!

Propagate Succulents from Leaves

1.) Select a healthy leaf to propagate. Choose a leaf that is in good health, with a hearty shape and no rips or blemishes. Typically you will choose a larger, more mature leaf than a young, under-developed one.
Pull the leaf off neatly. Use a razor blade or a craft knife to make a clean cut. The knife or blade should be sterilized in white spirit or similar before use; this prevents the transfer of any disease that could harm the succulent plant.
Some plants, like “jade plants”, the leaves will come off easily or even drop off the plant spontaneously. You can either use “volunteers” or select the one you want.
If you use your fingers, be very gentle. Twist the leaf carefully back and forth, from side to side to pull it off intact, without ripping the stem of the plant.

2.)
Let the leaf or leaves dry. Once you pulled off the leaves you wish to propagate, allow them to dry out a little bit. Let them dry for 1-3 days.
Do not water the leaf until after 1-3 days as your leaf may turn brown and mushy and will start to rot.

The “wound” on the stem of the parent plant should also be allowed to air dry in a sheltered and well-lit spot for a few hours. During its healing process, the plant will seal the wound and help prevent disease from getting in.

Place the dried leaves on some soil ready to grow. Just place them on top of the soil. Do not bury or semi-bury into the soil. The roots will find their way into the soil on their own. As you’re going to look at it for a good amount of months, you may as well make it look nice in pretty pattern or just place them randomly – that’s all up to you.
The soil should be well drained. If you need to improvise good growing soil, mix half well-rotted compost with half fine pumice or grit.

Water the leaf. The leaves need water at some point but only a light sprinkling. While “grown-up” succulents only need to be watered every second week, or even once a month (depending on the season/heat), the leaves need to be watered constantly without being watered too much. Only water the soil after it is dry (stick your finger into the soil around the planted leaves; if it feels moist, watering is not needed but if it’s dry, then water).

Wait. All you have to do now is to wait for the leaves to grow roots or even new leaves. You’ll see some changes within just a month or so.

GROW WINTER FLOWERING PLANTS IN POT -KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF CINERARIA PLANT-HOW TO GET LOTS OF BLOOMS
DAIZZ’S TIP:-
Cinerarias are not suited for growing in hot dry climates. If you are growing Cinerarias in the garden, they should be grown in partial to full shade, and planted in slightly acidic, rich, well-drained soil with a high compost content. Water regularly and thoroughly to keep the soil evenly moist, but never soggy. Cinerarias readily reseed themselves in the garden.

When grown in pots or planters, Cinerarias should be planted in a loose, rich, peat moss based potting mix with good drainage. Once they begin to bloom they prefer to be kept somewhat root-bound.
Indoors, keep your Cineraria in filtered sun or bright light.
Do not allow the soil to dry out, but be careful not to over water.
Cinerarias like it cool, and will bloom for a much longer period with
daytime temperatures of 65° and 50°-55° at night.

Gardeners are a pretty thrifty bunch and it’s in the garden where repurposing old items into new really comes into its own.

From transforming tins into planters to repurposing old furniture for storing produce, there are countless ways to put worn out or unwanted items to good use in the garden.

In this short video we’ll share some of our favorite garden upcycling ideas.

If you’re new to hydroponics and have NO clue what all of the terminology means, this video is for you. Even if you’re an intermediate grower and want to know what EC is, what TDS means, which you should use, and how it all connects to pH, make some time to watch this one today.

The truth is that EC or electrical conductivity is the purest way to measure your nutrient concentration. TDS or total dissolved solids is a calculation based on EC that meters perform internally. TDS is measured in PPM, or parts per million and the calculation can vary based on the conversion factor.

This is why you must know the conversion factor your meter is using if you’re using TDS. Or you can simply switch to using EC and never have to worry about it again!

Today’s video is sponsored by Apera Instruments, makers of water and soil testing probes and meters. They kindly donated the PH20 and PC60 meters for me to make this video.

HOW TO GROW CHRISTMAS CACTUS IN POT AND ALL CARE TIPS
DAIZZ’S TIP:-A beautiful holiday plant (botanically known as Schlumbergera or Zygocactus), the Christmas Cactus unsurprisingly blooms at Christmas and also sometimes around Easter time if cared for properly. A month prior to Christmas you will be able to watch the tips of the leaves beginning to grow. The tips grow darker as each day passes, until a bud forms. At Christmas time, as if by magic, the buds open to a beautiful flower that will add color and warmth to any holiday season.

HOW TO PRUNE YOUR ROSE PLANT/BUSH IN ORDER TO GET 1000+ FLOWERS -USE THIS TIPS AND GROW LOTS OF FLOWERS
DAIZZ’S TIP:-Pruning is about more than just looks. Proper pruning improves the health of your rose bush, prevents disease, and encourages better flowering.

There are different pruning strategies for different times of the year, but overall the goal is always the same: to keep the bush vigorous and open, allowing better air circulation through the center of the plant.

Air movement dries the leaves, which helps prevent foliar diseases. Fungal diseases like black spot and powdery mildew are more common on plants with congested growth in the middle of the plant.
Pruning cuts should always be made just above a bud eye. “Bud eye” refers to the area on the stem where branching occurs. In the summer, it’s easy to figure out where to prune, just cut right above a set of mature leaves.

HIRING A PROFESSIONAL TO BUILD A POND / WATER FEATURE – HOW TO

Atlantis Water Gardens originated from a love of creativity building water features to become a nationally recognized Designer-Installer of Natural Looking Ponds and Water Features

​​The Atlantis Water Gardens Story
​
“We’re not a water feature company, we’re a customer experience company.”
​
Taking raw materials like boulders and rubber liner and turning them into living works of art in people’s backyards is a special feeling, especially once the pumps are plugged in and the cascading water comes to life. That feeling pales in comparison to the elation felt when a new pond owner comes outside to see how their new water feature has added a tremendous sense of tranquility to their backyard environment.

Landscaping with water and stone presents a wealth of design opportunities. A tranquil pond, a cascading disappearing waterfall, a meandering stream, or a bubbling fountain – each of these possibilities offers aesthetic and environmental rewards. The concept of the garden as a peaceful, private sanctuary has inspired new interest in water gardens, although the pleasing accents have been incorporated into home landscapes for centuries.

Our design approach is to incorporate the relaxing properties of water into a new or existing landscape so that it becomes a seamless component of the landscape surround, complementing the desired lifestyle, the Water Garden Lifestyle. Honing our craft over the past 2 decades as water feature artists has given us the opportunity to work on some truly unique, custom projects.

Until now, we haven’t offered a wide variety of smaller, more affordable water feature options. Seeing that we have been neglecting this important segment of our industry for some time, we concentrated on creating several, affordable water garden packages to include ponds, disappearing waterfalls and fountainscapes along with the ability to offer financing to go with them. Making a professionally installed water feature available to anyone who wanted one in their landscape was our focus over the last few years and now it is finally a reality.

Simply utilize our Package Pricing page on our website to find the type and size water feature that will best fit your lifestyle. Being able to see how much a pond, disappearing waterfall or fountainscape might cost at the beginning of the buying process has been a great tool to help people realize their dream of owning a professionally installed water feature of their own.

After you’ve done your homework on our website, the next step would be to visit our Water Feature Park in Denville, NJ to try one of our water feature packages on for size. Seeing the variety of installed ponds, disappearing waterfalls and fountainscapes for yourself can help you visualize what each might look like in your backyard environment.

At Atlantis Water Gardens, we live the water feature lifestyle ourselves, so we know what a difference having the magic of water at your home can mean for a family that wants to re-connect and relax in their own backyard.

Come Home To Paradise

It’s mid-November in the allotment garden and things have slowed down and turned brown. While the garden plants are taking a break it’s time to tidy them, spread composted manure on the beds, and plant garlic and onion sets. I also spotted a job that I need to get done the next time I visit.

This video focuses on two tasks:

✽ Pruning autumn-fruiting raspberry canes
✽ Planting garlic (even if it is from China)
