Hi! I have a VERY etiolated succulent (I’m pretty sure she’s a red carpet Crassula) that needs to be chopped and propagated. I’m going to do better taking care of her this time around. I’ve never successfully propagated anything, and never tried with a stem cutting.

Where should I cut her? Some spots on the stem are already growing roots \& little leaves.

First picture is the full plant (ignore the tissue, it’s just so you can see the plant). Second \& third pictures are where the plant is growing leaves.
