Just looking for some tips! My succulent here (i’m not too sure what kind) was doing wonderful, purple and full!! And I followed what the app said (watering every 25 days, next to window, etc) and she’s become sad and lost most of her leaves!! If you have any tips for me please let me know!

I saw this lil guy at my local grocery store. I think it’s a moon cactus but I’m unsure about them. I heard they don’t last long so I passed on it. However, I can’t stop thinking about it. Are they worth it to go back for? Thoughts about them?

I got this succulent a little over a year ago and it’s never been doing great so I read that it might need more sun. I brought it to my office where I get a lot of sun and now its stem has turned almost a red and it is slowly drooping lower and lower. The first photo is today and the second is from before bringing it to my office. Any tips?

Hi, I have this Fairy washboard which I have been left in charge to care for by for by my 6 year old daughter. Thanks to this app I have had no issues caring for it and can see it is thriving! My question is the flower/ stem growing out of the middle is there something I should do with it? Can I replant it? What can or should I do with it? Any help will greatly be appreciated.

I’m considering repotting my Crassula to larger pot (it’s currently in a 2” pot). But the next size up available is a 4” pot. My questions are: 1) should I just fill the 4” halfway full of soil so as to not be an excessive amount for the size plant? 2) or do I just leave it in the 2” pot for a while longer? It’s getting top heavy. 3) or what’s advised?

Hi, need some help here.my plant is growing big and the stem isn't as thick, and it's starting to lean, and i've noticed that the pot is what's holding it upright, what can I do? And is it in too small, a pot.

This is an echeveria pulidonis. I got it about a year ago and it has grown beautifully but recently I noticed one of the lower leaves doing something weird almost like splitting? No physical damage has occurred that I can recall(other than the one leaf that appears broken off). About a week ago I looked again and realized it was actually multiple leaves that had this, some on the sides some in the middle. It’s only on about four of five leaves on the bottom, but I have never seen this before and can’t find any information. Planta says over watering(root rot) but this plant does not have root rot as far as I can see and I only water when the soil is completely dry. And other than this issue the plant is thriving. Does anyone know what this is?

ADVICE PLEASE đŸ™đŸŒ I got these cute little succulents about 1 year ago & they’ve been growing their little hearts out on the window sill. Family watered while I was abroad & I got back to find this
 I know bottom leaves shrivel off as a succulent grows upward
. But they’ve seemed to grow a little *too much*. Tried looking in plant books & online & yet I can’t find good guidance on why to do when such a large percentage of the plant dried out. Most places say to just pick off the dead leaves - but there’s so much stem on these that they can’t even hold themselves up. What do I do? Put them in bigger pots & give them support? Can I chop off/bury the entire stem & just leave the healthy tops? The tops are still growing - I see them sprout new leaves & get taller every week.

Hey cactus crew! This is my cactus, I named him Alligator Dave but am unsure of the exact cactus species if anyone could clarify. I'm posting here because Alligator Dave doesn't look too healthy, there's some brown corking and discoloration of such. Does anyone have a fix or know why? Thanks.

So much green and grey with dashes of troubling yellow - and the aloe who turned deep violet with red racing stripes.

I repotted this string of turtles from its nursery pot in June when I received it. Shes grown quite a bit! Should I repot so soon? Shes looking like shes exploding out of the pot.

Perspective is a wild thing with us humans. Someone else sees trash to the curb, I see a jaw dropping cereus score. The bigger pieces are 6+ ft tall!! Can easily turn this into 15 plus healthy growing sections. đŸ’Ș Cheers to curb finds and propagation!! New cactus garden incoming, who dis? đŸ€˜đŸ˜ŽđŸŒ”

I used to have a pencil cactus in Florida that grew so tall I had to keep cutting it back. I ended up with around 5 huge pencils. When we moved to TN I missed her so my daughter and her hubs bought me this beauty!

Hi All! So I observed that every time I repot my succulents (happy and have been around over a tear or two+) in ferti-lome (my usual go to brand) succulent soil the soil has consistently retained to much water despite being mixed with drainage components. The result: my very healthy succulents get sick after one watering/2-3 weeks once repotted. Has anyone else experience this? What’s your go to for succulent soil? Pic of the one I’m currently trying to save.
