Anytime I get a leaf I put it… _Postat av Elle Woods den 2024-05-25_ Not sure what to do with these guys. Anytime I get a leaf I put it there so there’s a variety. I also chopped the tops off some because they were etiolated. It’s under a grow light because I don’t have adequate sun anymore. The grow light is on the highest setting and I move it closer and closer, so not sure if it’s too close or what. It originated as a salvage from Walmart. Obviously I’m not the best with succulents. Please help 😁 ![Bilaga 1 av 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/H4FDPibuvnA63eyTfyGMnin-AAEPrrXzUQxvNxLXdAk/Qj-SlAKYRT-yBvjFZwX8TQ.webp?size=large) ![Bilaga 2 av 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/H4FDPibuvnA63eyTfyGMnin-AAEPrrXzUQxvNxLXdAk/Yule6aBjQE-2lXKrqSpcqQ.webp?size=large) ## 18 kommentarer ### Succulent❤️Mama kommenterade den 2024-05-25 I’m sorry, I have ADHD and am getting lost in some of the details. Are you asking if the grow light is working? Or what to do with the pups? Or about one of the plants in particular? Lots of cute succulent pups!😍 #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-25 Lol same 😂 and thank you succulent mama I was hoping you’d see my post 💜 I need answers to everything! Is the light ok? Too close? It’s on the highest setting for 12 hours daily. Should I leave them all in the same container or give them room in new individual small container? How many would you leave in that one round pot? The ones that are reaching up, are they supposed to grow like that? Do they need more light? Thank you 🙏🏼😊 #### Succulent❤️Mama svarade den 2024-05-25 Aww, thank you❤️ I’m glad I’m in good company😊😅 Are they all from plants in your profile? I’ll check it to verify what kinds they are, because they are so different. Oh wait, can you make your profile public so I can make sure I’m identifying these correctly in my mind? Some succulents have different light requirements. For example, sedum does grow that way, and burros tail grows compact like yours is. #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-25 Oh my gosh that might be part of my problem. I actually never identified all of them and they have all been together in this pot from the beginning about a year ago. I thought all succulents were created equal at the time 😳 the only identification is the main one with the photo which is “Ghost plant.” ### Succulent❤️Mama kommenterade den 2024-05-25 Ok😊 I’ll get back to you with what I think they are. I often have to play a guessing game with my propagations because I don’t label them when I put the leaves in there. 😅 But they are all leaves from plants in my collection, so that helps. Do you have any big plants these might have came from you can add the picture of here? Or are they just random leaves from different people/places? Oh, wait I just reread that and realized you might be saying all your plants are in this pot, which would answer my question. #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-25 They are all in one pot lol the leaves in to take only come from 3 or 4 large plants the I cut and placed on the first because they were etoliated. I didn’t think to label them I was a complete newb when I started all these 🙈 #### Succulent❤️Mama svarade den 2024-05-25 Gotcha😊 We all start somewhere! We were all noobs once!❤️ I will look at your plants and ID what I can.😊 My husband has a haworthia retusa on his desk with no light that we swap out with another one every two weeks and put on a window sill when it’s “off duty”. But my jade hobbit plant wouldn’t grow right, even on a windowsill, until I could get it outside. Most succulents can tolerate part sun but some prefer less and some really need more to live their full glory. #### Succulent❤️Mama svarade den 2024-05-25 I’m wondering if you think 1,2, and 3 are the same plant? How about 4, 5 and 6? ![Bilaga 1 av 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/y_krRxbnOnIl47_tU3sBzisysToGsAt6Bpht3PD4Szw/THO6vrVESbqMa75FeJZetg.webp?size=large) #### Succulent❤️Mama svarade den 2024-05-26 Also, are the big ones rooted? Or tops you chopped off recently? #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-27 Sorry for the late reply I’ve been stuck doing homework 🫠 1 and 2 do look the same. 4 and 5 also look the same. It is possible 3 is the same as 1 and 2 because as she became etoliated I was taking leaves off and placing them on the soil. 6 looks like a different one completely because the leaves are shorter and fatter but they don’t seem to grow any more than they are. _3 fler svar i appen_ ### Chrissy kommenterade den 2024-05-25 Does your pot have drainage? #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-27 It does not! So I don’t usually give it a downpour of water I just spray it a lot until it seems adequately moist. ### Succulent❤️Mama kommenterade den 2024-05-27 Starting new comment thread so we don’t have to keep clicking view more replies 😄 #### Succulent❤️Mama svarade den 2024-05-27 Ok, since you said you have a ghost plant, I bet that’s what 1,2, and 3 are. I was comparing my thoughts to yours since you can actually see the plants in the pot.🤪 Can you take a close up of 6? It reminds me of a burros tail prop from this angle, but I don’t think it is. I’m wondering if it’s a leaf prop from 4/5. Everything looks so different at that age. No rush on responses!😊 #### Elle Woods svarade den 2024-05-27 Hopefully this shows well and you can also see the leaves they were propped from. I’m pretty sure these are from the same original plant. I don’t think the original is a burros tail I wish it was because those are so cool. It looked like a standard succulent just elongated/etoliated. ![Bilaga 1 av 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/H4FDPibuvnA63eyTfyGMnin-AAEPrrXzUQxvNxLXdAk/N3CpWgT9SYW7cLZ472AfGw.webp?size=large) --- _Planta-communityn (https://getplanta.com).
