Should this be a time for watering? Or hold off till the leaves fall off?
1 gillaI have one in this condition currently. Iām not watering until the healthy leaves are feeling soft and squishy. After a lot of research, Iām still not sure if Iām doing it right though. I have several and so far they are doing well.
2 gillningarSo Iām right to hold off on a watering till it seems the healthy leaves want it?
0 gillningarAll I can say is, that is what I do. You may get other opinions though. So far mine are doing well. A couple got a little sunburn from a bright Sansi light over a year ago.
1 gillaYou have a gorgeous succulent garden Phil!!! I wish I had your knowledge, dedication and creativity. Beautiful!!šŖ·š¼
3 gillningarWow. Nice compliment. Thank you very much. But rest assured it is not all perfect.
1 gillaI have 2 split rocks and what i have read up on all says only water in early spring and fall but only when the inner leaves get soft which should only occur 2 or 3 times per season. During summer it should be actively splitting and absorbing the outer leaves. Fall it should bloom and then can be watered if outer leaves have dried as well as the soil is dry. They go dorment for winter to stock up energy for the next split in spring
3 gillningarI have similar plant here. This one freaked me out a bit when I first saw this. Is it like a crab or snake that has to shed its old shell to grow? Iām not sure if itās timing is too great tho as itās beginning to get cold here š
2 gillningarOh wow, this is the simulans type, right? I have never seen these up my way. I have seen people say they can get out of sync on their cycles due to shipping and other stuff
1 gillaWhere are you located roughly? Iāve had this one for over a year and now itās decided to go and shed its skin? Iām not sure what genus it is and Iām not sure if it does either š
0 gillningarThat makes sense. With it split like that in autumn here it may have a little cirrhosis maybe?š
1 gillaThank you for identifying it. Planta was not very specific about itās name.
