Anybody know how to get their string-of-things to grow nice and fast? I've had this string of hearts for about five months and it looks the same as when I got it. Not dying, but not doing much....

Not experienced with String of Hearts, but based on other plants, here is what I would try: 1. Make sure it's getting fertilizer. 2. Move to bigger pot. Stifled roots can mean less leaf growth. 3. Make sure it's getting full sun. I see that string-of-hearts can be part shade OR full sun, but if it's not growing, that means it either doesn't have enough nutrition or enough energy. Give it some more light if possible.

1 me gustaI just got my first string of turtles but I’ve had a few string of pearls. I showed the employee at the plant shop I got it from and she was shocked by progress. This is it now but I currently pulled all the strands up to fill the top and hopefully some will take root and create new strands. All bought within the last year. All I do is stick mine in my east facing window and I was watering every 2 or 3 weeks. But now I’m going by what the app says. I pretty much just let them be and forgot about them and they grew well. These are started out as 2” nursery plants and this is 10 months of growth on my oldest one. I repotted it a little over a month ago to put all my little ones together and fertilized it for the first time them. Let it be for a month before watering again.
