Hi there, you can prune down your Euphorbia to keep it more compact and this will also encourage your Euphorbia to side shoot and will slow down the growth from the top, its best to wear gloves and protect your skin and eyes when pruning Euphorbias as they give off a milky white latex sap, I often spray the parts of Euphorbias I cut with a hand held water spray bottle as this helps to stop the white milky sap quicker, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful new week XXXX <3

So happy you loved the plant jobs video Daz :-D and thanks so much for letting me know about the chemical burn with the soap and alcohol, I will be careful and keep an eye on it, haha yes it takes so long watering with all our plants, it takes me 4-5 hours of an evening now and better than a workout at the Gym haha, thanks so much Daz for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Edith lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to England and Singapore for a wonderful new week XXXX <3

So happy you love my videos, yes Neem oil every 4-6 weeks is a brilliant way to prevent pests, its best to use the Neem oil in the evenings once the sun has gone down, some Mammillarias can be more sensitive to too much direct sun especially if they are moved from indoors to outdoors for summer, I would move your Mammillaria to a position where it gets either a few hours of early morning or late afternoon sun and avoid the midday sun between 11-3pm when the sun is strongest, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful new week XXXX <3

So happy you loved the Opuntia tour video Donald, they really are wacky and amazing cacti to grow, and the Santa Ritas are amazing with their beautiful deep plum coloured pads, and thats fantastic you have two seedlings of them you have grown from seed, the paper spine Opuntia at 2m 50 is a Tephrocactus articularis and the one at 6m 49 is unfortunately one I don't have the ID for, I know that Opuntia seeds can take many months to germinate, I have had seeds germinate a year after haha, and its very possible your Opuntia macrocentras will still germinate over the coming months, thanks so much Donald for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Spain from Hans and me for a wonderful new week XXXX <3
