Can you post a photo?

Rob

Thanks. Any helpis greatly appreciated. The soil mix is made of processed foredt products, sphagnum peat moss, sand, perlite, fertilizer and a wetting agent

Reita,

As Gill has mentioned. From what your zone shows at top of page. I can only assume that this would not be a good mix for your Adeniums.

Peat moss of any kind is not good.

Sometimes finding the planting media can be difficult to find if you are not familiar with them.

I would pot up for now in a mix of Cactus mix 1/2 and perlite 1/2.

The gritty mix of equal parts: Granite grit #2 (sold many places as chicken grit at feed stores), Reptile bark (small) at places such as Petsmart, or Coconut chunks,etc., Turface, Perlite. The pieces of media should all be of relatively the same size, giving you a very free draining mix.

The Adeniums will not respond well to cool, wet situations. You want them to dry back fairly quickly. Temperatures of less than 60 degrees and wet is not a good mix for their overall health.

Do not become overwhelmed with the imput you gather, just read it and make an informative decision with what you can supply where you reside.

Reita, yes we do try to help, Rick's advise is good, sadly the spaghnum peat moss, sand and wetting agent aren't. The search box is a good idea to use to look for valuable info...at the top of the page btw.

The sphagnum peat moss is a part of the cactus mix I bought (Miracle Grow). Will they be ok until next weekend? I still have the cactus mix and perlite. Should I go ahead and repot in that until I can get the grit and reptile bark. The plants are inside where it is warm and under grow lights. Thanks

Also, I have PVC (plastic) pellets that are about the same size as perlite. Could I use that in place of the grit, at least until I can get some?

Reita,

If they are under your lights and kept warm they will be fine. Some keep in a mix such as you mention, but you really have to watch for staying too moist for extended lengths of time. Especially if they get cool, say below 60F.

Nice trees.

Rick

what age do seedlings go into gritty mix? Mine are just sprouting in Coir powder.

Thanks Rick. It never gets below 65 in my house. I prefer the middle to upper 70's myself. Lol...I will keep a close eye on them and get them in a better mix as soon as I can. Do I have them buried too deep or are they about the right depth? Thanks

As Rick says, keep warm and they will last till you move them, best not to disturb again with another temporary move till then. They look OK to me but difficult to judge not having seen at what level they were planted previously or what the caudex actually looks like. Whatever is going on underground it will slowly develop over the next couple of years, and you often get a pleasant surprise when you repot in the spring, as things can rapidly expand when hidden from view, lol.
