Ok question here. I have some small aloe plants and it seems like they are just staying so small. They are pups from the mother plant, but seems like they have been the same size forever! Also is there a secret to encourage my snake plant to grow!! It hardly ever gets a new stalk.

Not sure why my Chin Cactus is changing colors and getting spots when I repotted him? Very draining soil, in full sun after being acclimated, 80-100* F weather. Am I missing something? Should I move him into shade?

SOS I haven’t watered my boobie cactus but once this month and nothing before that. It’s squishy at the base and looks rotted but the taller one has new growth. I’m not exactly sure what to do, I don’t want to have to cut them back, but if they are rotted I guess that’s the only option. Is it possible that it’s just too hot outside? They get full sun for 6 hours at 80-100 degrees F

What is up with my jade 😱 It’s been very healthy, but there’s a chunk that has these shriveled, blackened leaves and a powdery coating.

Came into the greenhouse last night and he's fallen over should I give him a support stick or do I need to cut and try and root the long part in soil?

Happy Sunday everyone! I was wondering why parts of my succulent are coming off so easily. All I’ve been doing to it ever since I got it was water and fertilize it every 2 weeks. Am I doing something wrong? Please tell me if he’s okay or not! (Just so you guys know, another one came off easily a couple days ago)

Does anyone else have what I call the aloe “wrinkles”? Two of my aloe’s leaves are floppy and squishy, creating the wrinkled effect. I know that succulents can tell you when to water using their leaves, and squishy leaves are a sign of needing water, but I do tend to water pretty regularly I think (about once a month). So I moved it to a bright location than where I had it before. I did also have a leaf with rot that I took care of and I’m not seeing anymore problems with that. Anyone else have any suggestions about this?

Hiii! I noticed roots starting to come out of my drooping prickly pear’s nursery pot. Normally I would think it’s time to size up but I just re-potted her from a 2” into her current 4” in April! The nursery employee said to look at her roots and see if she actually needs to size up to 6”. I would love some help determining if it’s time😂 as you can see, a bunch of her current soil fell out while taking these pics lol. she hasn’t had any issues, just minor cosmetic damage from overwatering earlier this year. Thank you so much!!!💚

Repotted and and gave my climbing aloe a new stake. Didn't break any off any of her!! I don't know how. She's a beast, but a favorite. I need a nap. lol
