This is how my succulents are doing after facing a fungus🌱🍄‍🟫

Welcome to a new post, dear Hiver!

It's been a few days, but we can already see progress.

A few weeks ago, I posted about the fungus affecting my succulents. All due to excess rainwater.

Unfortunately, since I wasn't home during the day, I didn't notice it. But I was still able to address the problem and solve it.

So today, I'm showing you some progress, along with things I've been doing to keep them alive.

Cinnamon is still a great tool.

Cinnamon, as I mentioned in my other post, is a natural fungicide. It helped me eliminate the fungus from my plants.

So, after a few weeks, I started using cinnamon again. Only this time, I sprinkled it on the soil.

The most important thing is that I want to keep the plants free of fungus, so I must be vigilant and correct anything that may occur.

Little water, because they drown.

Another thing I pay attention to is watering. A little every three weeks. I've watered it a couple of times or so, mostly to prevent them from dying from lack of water.

So I've avoided overwatering them. The fungus came from excess moisture; we don't want that again.

A little, a few drops gently, I let it drain thanks to the well-draining soil, and that's it.

They also get their daily dose of light.

The succulents I have need light, not direct light because they start to burn, but indirect light.

So I keep them in the garden near the wall.

The soil has been turning, and with it the shadows and my plants. Every so often I move them around according to the amount of light they need. So these succulents are no exception.

I protect them from direct sunlight, and when there's no sun, they're kept indoors near a window or a light bulb.

I take care of them from the cats.

Wow! This has been so hard. Not only do I have these plants under observation, but I also have a cactus that I've struggled to get to take root.

My cats have caused some damage around the house, including attacking the plants. It's a lot of fun for them, but not so much for me. It hurts because it takes time to care for them, and it's also a bit of a struggle for them to recover.

So, using my wonderful technique, I've taken tree sticks to bury them in the pots. Apparently, the cats don't like it, and thanks to that, they don't go near my potted plants.

That's why you'll see all these buried sticks in the photos.

They don't look aesthetically pleasing, it's true. And sometimes I've thought they look pretty bad like that, but it's the solution I have for now.

If I want to have cats and plants at home, I must do everything possible to ensure that both species coexist peacefully.

Don't look at them too much.

Dad used to say that delicate plants shouldn't be looked at too much. And I listen to him. I look at them very little, just enough to know they're okay.

And well, I already have my cats and dog, who get a lot of my attention, so I can look at them instead.

Is this a strange piece of advice? I feel like it is, but here we're not afraid of anything and we share all the tips.

So I'm taking this opportunity to tag @tootsiegumop-as so she doesn't miss any updates.
