Pv4291, when you are designing a succulent arrangement that will last more than a month, the best you can do is to play with the form and color of the plants, the pot and rock cover. Like this: You get the idea. Follow some simple rules: 1) Draining holes is a MUST HAVE 2) They need a fast draining soil, specially if your country is cold/have the four seasons 3) Preferiblely, use terracota pots. Personaly, I think that painted terracota is ok too. 4) Agrupate succulents and cactus with similar needs of light, watering and fertilization 5) Place them where they can get enough sunlight so they will conserve their form for longer and get those pretty red and pink shades. If you have a guest you can move them for decorative reasons for a couple of days, and then put them back in their place. Basically, think what do you want, do your search to see what would be the best plants for it and what they need to be happy and healthy and look fabulous in your design

Nothing wrong with your fertilizer choice that I know of although it isn't a commonly used one. You will have to use it quite frequently however. I'd suggest giving all the plants a good full strength dose now as they are quite anemic and then using it diluted to 1/2 strength every time you water the plants. The primary problem is the mix you used to fill your containers. It is a potting soil rather than a soil-less potting mix so it is going to have drainage problems, will remain overly wet at the root level, and will develop what is called a perched water table that can often lead to root rot. So you will need to cut back substantially on your watering practices due to that soil. Only water when you can stick your hand deep into the soil and feel that it is dry. You cannot use the surface appearance as an indication for the need for water. As an alternative, if feasible, set them all up for bottom watering. Trays or flats under each plant that lets you fill the tray with water, let the plant sit it and wick the water UP just until the surface of the soil is lightly damp to the touch. And then dump any remaining water out of the tray. 30-32 C is pretty much max for tomato pollination and comfort so if you have many periods of day that exceed that then better ventilation and/or fans for circulation will likely be needed. Check out all the temperature control discussions over on the Greenhouse forum here. Hope this helps.

If your plant is wilting while you can still detect moisture in the soil with a finger or wooden stick used as a 'tell', you're almost certainly over-watering. Over-fertilizing or a high level of dissolved solids (salts) in the soil from fertilizer solutions and tap water can also cause the same reaction or work concertedly with over-watering to cause the wilting. If you're sure the soil has been allowed to go completely dry, it's possible it has become hydrophobic (water-repellent). When this occurs, water often runs across the top of the soil and out of the pot via the space between the pot wall and the shrunken soil mass. If this occurs, you need to completely rewet the entire soil mass and start making sure you water before it reaches a state so dry. There are various ways to rewet soil, but soaking in a deep tub is probably the most common remedy. It's obvious from the close-up of the stem that the top of the plant is desiccated, but that can occur from too little or too much water, or as noted, from a high salt level in the soil solution. From what I described, you should be able to get a pretty good idea of what factor(s) is/are causal and change your habits to eliminate the issue. Al

@rina_Ontario,Canada 5a This is what my plant should look like and had looked like a while ago. I don't think I over watered/ under watered it multiple times because I got one of those plant moisture meters to know when to water it. I put fertilizer in both re potted plants as kind of a good luck thing, I don't even know if it does anything but I though it couldn't hurt. I only put a very small amount. I did think that the soil might have been to "Normal looking" in the sense that it was like normal potting soil but I got this bag exactly and it's what i have used ever since I got them. I had previously put in pebbles just to help the soil drain even better (as well as some sand the first time but that was to much to deal with) the pebbles are like smaller than my thumbnail. I tried putting the light above the plants but because this is the only lamp I have it has this clip so that you can attach it to a surface and I have to use it because the bulb sticks out so I can't leave it facing downward on the bulb. Luckily there are no bugs! I think because of the quality of the picture it looks like the darker bits at the end of the leaves are bugs but there not. In the picture I had just desperately flung water droplets onto the plant so that it could get some water back into it so that's why there is dark spots in the soil. Unfortunately the leaves and stem are getting dryer and dryer..... I was hoping that they would start to perk up or at least only part of the stem would dry up and fall off but everything seems very hard and dry. D:
