# I'm new to succulents. This guy was doing great and gave 2 pups…

_Posted by jlsKenzy on 2025-09-17_

I'm new to succulents. This guy was doing great and gave 2 pups without me doing anything. But, within the couple of weeks it dropped majority of its seeds. Several questions, first, have I placed the seeds ok for them to grow? The 2 already growing, are they big enough to repot? Now, the main guy, I need to chop and replant, anything special I need to do? I don't want to lose it.

First off I wanted to say that your succulent looks healthy, green, and juicy 👍 I would carefully try to remove those babies, and transplant them their own pots, or a single large pot, so they don’t have to fight for nutrients.  
As for the main plant, I’d think this was beyond saving because of the hunch and top heaviness. Other people might have different comments/ideas, but, If this were my plant, I would cut off the top and repropogate.  
On my initial note, about health, If you’re a propagation nut like I am, don’t throw the stem away. He/she will still grow babies for you to transplant.
