My string of watermelons is growing like a sea serpent in my large planter. It grows up into the air and then dips down and digs into the soil to root it’s vine and then pops back up. If I were to take a time lapse of a year of growth sped up it would look like it was swimming through this planter. It is about to flower as well for the first time.

I’ve decided only to do water and Pearl propagation. Here they are now.
(I know it looks so dirty 😓😓)

Do these roots look normal? They’re not soggy like root rot, but they’re VERY dark and hard to the touch - almost like sticks?? Should I just try and reroot the whole plant?

Hey circle!! I am thinking about doing it… I think I am going to propagate string of pearls!! My string of pearls is so long and I want to have a new baby plant!
I am going to do it a few different ways: water, soil, and a singular pearl. I have searched up all of these and found out they are all possible!! I will be posting updates every week about my baby strings. So excited and totally going to do it after work!!
If you have any recommendations than feel free to share.

This is Chet, named after the monstrous, amazing, art class style “pot.” In case you’re wondering, most of the pot is filled with rocks with about 3 inches of space for Chet’s deep roots to breath.
You’ll note that another is leaf coming up the wrong direction. It’s not a split, but a twin. I considered digging Chet out to give more space to stretch, but he is pretty lodged in - like a hermit crab.
Included is also how this species *could* look if we stopped picking at our plants :)
Also note my temporary “little guys playground” I tried out for a few weeks. It was too awkward to deal with.

Anyone know what this is called? I’ve cared for it for years, but have never been able to ID it.

Echeveria Violacina. It looks unhealthy compared to when I bought it, I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong?

I got two small cuttings of a variegated Thanksgiving cactus a couple months ago and I am pleased with all the new leaves. I am interested to find out what color the flowers are. Likely bloom next year given it’s size.

Need help identifying this tiny guy. My son bought it for me at Trader Joe’s because I like planters with faces on them. It has doubled in size. Pot is only one inch in diameter.

My Alluaudia procera soil was hydrophobic and I didn’t realize it until several days ago. I ended up losing its leaves and is now shriveling at the tips. The base is definitely not mushy but the tops are definitely shriveling. How should I handle this?
