Welcome!
A very nice collection...and a cool pot of Jade! :-)
Do you mix your own potting mix?

Josh

Patrick,

Welcome aboard here. It seems you live in SouCal, which as you likely know is a hotbed of succulentism. Your plants look great.

Welcome, Patrick!

Yep, you are all the way in:).. Both legs.

Very nice collection of plants! Welcome to GW =)

Very nice collection. Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the Forum.
what A Super collection, for Being so Young you're doing Great

Very nice plants, especially the nubbly-bubbly hybrid Aloes.

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

@greenman28 - I do mix my own soil. This year I got lazy and mixed 75% pumice to 25% commercial cacti and succulent soil.

@cactusmcharris - I actually live in nor cal, inland bay area to be exact.

Again thank you all for the warm welcome. Im going to start a thread in the trade section soon and list all my extras. I will also have some freebies for anyone willing to cover shipping costs.

Wow, what a collection you have already! to the forum, Patrick! I especially like your Aloe hybrids. Even have an xGasteraloe 'Twilight Zone'! Nice plants, all! Like Ryan said, you have "both legs" in! No going back now!! Hee hee!

Thanks for sharing all the pix of your collection! Your mix sounds like what I've been doing lately. It works! (Well either pumice or dry stall)

Hey Patrick, that looks great. Glad you worked it out posting here. Cali is like, plant heaven :) Hope to see more in the future.

Welcome Patrick! I'm a newbie here, too, and have found a wealth of information here.

Great collection you have!

Makes sense...plants that look that good I wouldn't expect to be grown in off-the-shelf bagged mix.

Josh

Thank you all for the kind complements. I can already tell I am going to enjoy this community.

@rosemariero- The mix I am using is working great for me. If I wasn't so cheap I would use pumice exclusively for a majority of my collection.

@NameTaken- I was trying to post my pictures using the image code rather then the html code. You guys are in trouble now. Whoever has dial up is going to hate opening my threads.

@Greenman28- Thank you for that complement. I look at other growers plants in envy wishing I could grow a plant that well. I guess im to hard on my self, either that or im never satisfied. Probably a mixture of both.

Anyways here are a few more pictures.

I absolutely love those white ball cactus. More pics!!

I dont think anyone has 56k anymore :) If they do, then they are living in the past.

Thank you. If you still plan on getting more plants from me in the spring I can toss a peace your way, just remind me.

Sure thing, thanks.
