Jade plant going crazy — there’s tons of sprouts but some are going sideways and there’s a lot of little roots trying to grow from the middle of the plant. Do I need to trim parts? Thoughts??

Unfortunately growing like that is not a good sign. The leaves should be closer together and the stems should be much stronger. It looks like it needs much more light. Maybe start some props. Easy to do and they root fast. Then provide the proper care.

0件のいいねI agree. Time to chop and prop and get this baby under better light. They get leggy like that when there’s not enough sun
いいね 1件Ohhh yeah my plant only has one that is based in the group - maybe I need to cut and propagate?

So adorable! 🥰
いいね 1件That looks like a rubber band on your plant not roots. Did you try to steak it up? Growth like that does sound like legginess and your plant wants more light
0件のいいねOh yeah there’s twist ties to prop it up - but there’s little tiny white roots trying to grow from the horizontal froth that you can’t see here
0件のいいねJust because it gets 12 hours in a window doesn’t mean it’s getting the right amount or type of light. Not all windows are created equal. I had to move mine to a window that faces the opposite direction

If you dont have a window that gets more light, get a grow light. The extreme legginess, and roots from the middle is your jades way of saying it wants out of your dungeon. Chop your tree in half, remove some bottom branches (petals) and plant your "new" jade next to the chopped off one. (Or wherever, but you get it).
