    I would wait on the aloe,prickly pear, and cactus.but for the zebra plant I would do a Leaf propagation and if you want to make the echeveria less leggy then you would cut off the top and root or could do leaf propagation.

    Terracotta pots are great choice but the ratio of plant size to soil is too much. The pots should be much smaller and shallow pots would be best. More like the pic. These are obviously larger than your plants but gives you an idea. I don’t currently have any very small plants. These pots are 5 inches.

      The reason is because the plants need totally dry soil between watering. With so much soil it may not dry out but the terracotta will definitely help.

      Ok tysm for the feedback. The soil i am using is cactus mix but its like all fibrous shreds of wood it appears maybe coco. But its dries out super quick. Its usually completely dry within 2 days. But also I have a dehumidifier in my apartment

      If your soil is drying out that fast you should be fine then. When you water, totally drench them. Should have water coming out the bottom drain hole

      Ok I so this but it really doesnt take long for the water to start draining lol it just goes straight through without drenching the entirety of the soil
