Hi guys I’m new to succulents and this is my first string of hearts it’s so pretty!! Any tips on how to keep it alive? Lol It’s in a small 3 ish inch pot and I put it in my east facing window sill. How often do I water?

Cute ! 😇 does it have drainage ?

#### Shinyyさんが2024-07-13に返信しました

Of course !

#### Briさんが2024-07-13に返信しました

Awesome ! Then I’d just follow plantas watering schedule 🙂 let it dry out a bit before watering and like the comment below I also do taco test, or when they look like they’re “drying up” give them a drink. Hope you have fun with her 😁

Thank you!! It says 6 days from when I watered it I feel like that’s a little soon but I’ll have to see. Yes I’m in love I can’t stop looking at her and my mom loved it so much I had to make her a tiny one too🤣

Awww how sweet ! It’s also one of my favorite plants 😇 yeah in 6 days I’d say just check the soil before watering it depends on how often the soil dries out etc, definitely check the soil before next water 😁 I got mine in may from my mom haha this is her now 😄

I water mine when they pass the taco test! (When the leaves easily bend together that’s when I water, you can Google it to see videos)

#### Shinyyさんが2024-07-13に返信しました

Will do thank you so much!!🥰

#### Lyndaさんが2024-07-14に返信しました

What does TACO mean? I’m not familiar with the term. TIA. 🤗💚🪴

#### Briさんが2024-07-14に返信しました

You fold one of the leaves if it gives and folds she needs a drink if she’s firm no bend she’s not thirsty 😇

My hot tip is that I do bottom watering only (we call it butt chugging in our house lol) for all of my succulents, especially the “string of” ones. I’ve killed so many previously and butt chugging was a game changer. And taco test is a must for the hearts! once you get to know your plant, it will get a lot easier to tell. 🤗

Butt chugging 🤣💀 I’ll have to use this one lmao

#### Shinyyさんが2024-07-14に返信しました

That’s so funny omg!!😂 I can try to but chug lol but how does that help it over just watering the top? I’m gonna try it in this pot because I’m obsessed with it and if I sense it doesn’t like it I’ll change to terracotta I’m just not a fan of the orange color :/

### Lindseyさんが2024-07-13にコメントしました

Oh and another tip…. I like to keep all of my succulents in terra cotta pots- it helps control moisture. Or I put them in a clear nursery pot and then put that into any decorative pot. I like being able to see the soil to know exactly how much moisture I’ve got in there!
