Hi everyone. I got a new succulent which at first just had a couple of sun/edema spots but in the 2 weeks I’ve had it, its leaves have developed spots/marks all over. Two leaves shriveled up today but all the rest are super plump. I haven’t watered it since I got it and I repotted it immediately into a chunky succulent soil mix to live with this aloe. The roots looked great. He’s under a grow light 12hr/day plus in a W window (I’m far north so don’t get too much light. All the other succulents are loving it). Let me know what you think - thank you! Last pic is what he looked like when I got him.
Newest additions. Found them at Walmart. Pricey but worth it.
First time propagation, just took some leaves off waiting to dry out. Wish me luck!😻
How do you guys know when your succulent is supposed to be tall and when it’s etiolating? I have this cotyledon orbiculata pigs ear. The first pic was what it looked like when I got it (repotted it) and the second pic is where it’s at today. It’s been about 30 days. I’ve moved it twice, as the first place I had it some of the other succulents it was with started etiolating. Now it’s directly under the light. Also any ideas why the leaves are bending downward??
New babies on the bottom. Time to start some new plants. Lol
So I rescued this allo from a lady about a plant stand from in the summer who had it in a box and a dark garage 🤦♀️ my question is should I chop the neck off and just plant the top half directly in soil? I think it just mutated trying to survive in there? But it's so top heavy the plant can't stand up and I think the neck is probably sucking him over the energy from the rest of the plants any thoughts as to what kind of all it is just a regular one? Thank you so much 🤷♀️🫶🪴🙏
Her name is Björk. I love her very much.
I was gifted this beautiful arrangement but it didn’t come with any care instructions. The pot has no drainage and is currently under a grow light with my monstera. Haven’t worked with whatever medium it’s potted in before and it’s currently slightly damp. Any recommendations are appreciated!!
I was away for a week or so (and didn’t notice anything prior but maybe it was already there?) but look what’s happening!! I’m excited but I don’t understand? I’ve had this succulent for like three years and it’s never done anything like this! What’s going on? 🤩
Have to share with you all my beautiful Aloe she has gotten so big, she’s leaning a it now because her leaves are so heavy.
just got this little guy from a group handing out free succulents and i’m concerned about care. i don’t have premium so i don’t know exactly what it is but i think it might be a ripple jade? am i right to think that or is there another option i should consider? also are there any big upkeep things i should be worried about? or just a watering every so often and sunlight? thank you 🙏
So confused… I had a Burro’s Tail and wanted to get another to add to it. Well it’s a completely different color. It’s been months now with them together, same lighting, and they’re still different colors. Are they the same plant? Thanks!
Can anyone tell me what plant this is? My grandpa gave it to my mother and she wants help to take care of it but I don’t know what kind it is. Thank you! (I don’t even know if it’s a succulent)
I want to show that you’re not alone with your “Why is my cactus leaning?” concerns (see Reddit posts). There is a difference between “I need more light, and I’m going to contort to find it” and, “I’m genetically prone to lying down, here I go.” Some Mammillaria (and Echinopsis etc.) do this, and I defied my plant for many months until giving it a brace. I mean it isn’t reaching for the window as much as it is creating real estate for wool and blooms and whatever the heck is next.
My Euphorbia is starting to rot from the bottom, I suppose it could be overwatering, but I don’t know what to do to save it!
I’ve had this cactus for a couple years now and it is doing fine but just doesn’t seem to be growing much at all ? Are these generally very slow growth plants?
This is my first chance to prop a succulent, and it looks like it’s not turning out very well…😬! What am I doing wrong? I spritz it every other day, because the soil measures dry. What else should I know about propping these little guys? TIA!
