00:16Use a well-draining soil mix.

00:18Use gritty, succulent mix with sand, perlite, and peat or quire.

00:23Fast drainage prevents rot, encouraging healthy offset development.

00:27Water sparingly and consistently.

00:31Water deeply, let the top inches dry, and monitor soil moisture

00:35instead of following a strict schedule to prevent stress and boost pup production.

00:41Fertilize lightly in growing season.

00:43Apply diluted, balanced fertilizer sparingly in spring and midsummer,

00:48as overfeeding favors leaves over-offsets.

00:52Moderation ensures reliable puping.

00:55Maintain warm temperatures.

00:56Keep daytime temperatures 65 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit

01:00while protecting from nights below 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
