Haha, I can feel the home grower audience cringing at the way he roughly handles these plants.
Having grown for resale my whole life I can safely say that the plants will be just fine, all growers are rough with their plants when working with literally tens of thousands of plants.
You cant imagine how roughly we handle a load of Boston ferns I literally throw them in piles at times
I used to revel in freaking out the public when Id sell at market playing that goofy game where I pretend Im bending down to pick a plant up, then kick it a few feet, exclaim hey you! Get back here! Then continue to bend down then kick it again and again 20 years later and I still have people pop up that remember me playing this game and the look on peoples faces as Im kicking around a $25 plant that I intend to sell.

I agree % that the blooms are beautiful. I do have a love/hate relationship with them. They take a lot of energy away from the succulents and can also misshapen a perfect rosette. If their not misshapening my rosette I'll let them grow a little stem and then cut them. Place them in water and watch them blossom.

Rewatch this, you are a pretty bad interviewer. Consistently interrupting to input your two cents and waiting closed lipped to speak. We want to hear what the person is saying as the expert what we don't want is you to talk over and interrupt and to watch you try to keep your mouth shut.

Ugh Ive tried to propagate my succulent leaves and Ive never even seen them get to the root stage! I dont put them in too direct sunlight and I never water the leaves but they just scab and rot. Any ideas?

I had a succulent that thought it was a bonzai tree and grew branches instead of growing larger. We reproduced it and the little succulents how do that too. I need to know why they do that?

hey, so I have a possibility of getting a peyote, that's about 8cm in diameter. When it says like that, is it just the one button? And how do I get more than one button to grow?

You should have shared the name of this succulent wholesaler and pointed to their website. They gave the time for the interview but they lost a chance to promote their business.
