I underestimated how big this pot is when I got this succulent, can I still use it?

What variety of succulent is this?
Heidi
Hey Planties! I have this cactus (not sure the specific species twas a gift) that’s been slowing leaning over the past few months. It seems to be healthy, no rot in sight, but I’ve been pondering how I should repot it. I don’t know if it likes to be leaning, or if I should go straight up with it. Lmk if yall have any advice, regardless im excited to repot!🙏🏼

I found this little guy in our bin store a few days ago, I’ve never been able to successfully grow a plant 😅 so any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated

Poquito got a new pot 🥰! His sun burn hasn’t gotten worse since having him inside with a grow light, we fertilized today, and he’s not dead so a win is a win 😁. Louisiana sun was about to take him out before he had a chance to live. Can’t wait to continue to turn my thumb green 👍🏾

I found a plant!🤣 Planta said I had a gollum jade plant, and I remember buying it a year or two ago. But I don’t remember the last time I saw it so I assumed it died last year over the several month stretch I was very sick. But I just found it!!🥳 I have several plants that I’m not sure I own anymore but I also have several propagations from their leaves, so I am waiting until they are bigger to see which ones they are. But they are all grapetoveria or sedums (or some similar cross) so definitely not a jade. This gollum plant has been nagging me for an update for 11 months and I keep snoozing it. 😴 I just realized this week that when I mindlessly water all the plants in the school room, I am watering two jade plants. The variegated one and another funny/stunted looking jade. I’m always doing school with my kids as I do this, so I’m never really paying attention to which plant. Just if it needs water. I finally registered I had that second jade up there and was really feeling crazy.🤪 I KNOW I didn’t buy a traditional jade because as much as I wanted one, my mom had one that I was going to get a leaf from when it got bigger. She has decided to give it to me as she wasn’t able to give it enough light and she knew I loved them.❤️ But that is somewhere else. So where in the world did this jade come from?!🤪 On a whim, I decided to scan it on Planta and every single scan came back gollum jade.🤣 It has much more normal looking leaves then I remember, but I guess it’s been hiding in plain site this whole time! Apparently I’ve been mindlessly caring for it for the last year!😄

Hey everyone! Does anyone have any tips for my succulent that is shriveling? I only water it when I get a reminder from Planta… But it isn’t growing, now the leaves look like this! 🌵🎍🪴🪷

Hi Friends! This is a Queen of the Night (Epiphyllum Oxypetalum). I brought it home from a green house around a month ago and it’s perked up quite a bit. Still in the nursery pot as I wanted to acclimate it. I watered it for the first time last week and I’m noticing what looks like aerial roots growing from the longest leaves on the plant. Does anyone have experience with these that can advise what I can do to help? I’m assuming it’s to help it grow taller, have you used a moss pole? Or are these blooms? Appreciate any guidance!

My Easter cactus is dying ;(. Anyone see anything obvious to help it?

How do setup plants in Planta when you have multiple in one pot? I have them added as separate plants currently but that’s not really working with tasks happening on different days per plant. Should I start it as just one plant?

Love sunny days, perfect for taking their progress photos

Hi all. I think this is a ripple jade. She had a lot of nice growth but about 10 leaves have dropped and now left with this. I don’t think it’s been overwatered and has enough sun. Anyone have any ideas why it would drop so many leaves? Thank you!

Anyone else’s Zebra plants getting massive stems/flowers that need a little support? 🤣. This is the 3rd one it’s grown (got 2 last year). It’s amazing but every time I open the curtains I’m petrified I’m gonna knock it off 🤣 x

Does anyone know what this white fluffy stuff is on my echevaria’s roots? I went to water it today as per planta and the soil is all dried up so he could use a good soak. I bottom water only so perhaps it’s from that? The roots don’t smell like anything so I don’t think it’s root rot and they’re not mushy. Could it be a mould?? He lives in a bright window and is otherwise very happily popping out new leaves and even got his red tips back. Dr planta again says overwatered but I only water as per its schedule (last watered on the 12th) and always lift him outta his nursery pot to check the soil wetness first. (Nursery pot has drainage, decorative pot doesn’t but he get drip dried before going back in the decorative one)

I’m not sure what happened. My plant was fine yesterday (overgrowing the pot a bit) and today it fell out and left me with this. Should I have repotted it sooner? I’m so sad 😭. Any chance of saving it? I’ve got another one that’s doing the same thing. Was I supposed to cut it back? I don’t know much about succulents… I was just happy that they were low maintenance. 🙄🤔

My string of pearls is starting to look shriveled, and I noticed it’s lost some pearls from the middle of some strands. I’m a notorious overwaterer and have already lost one to root rot. I’ve been careful not to over water this one. The soil is bone dry, maybe a little hydrophobic, last watered about 2 weeks ago. Is she just thirsty?
