This is my second cuddly cactus that has done this. Iām assuming Iām overwatering? Or itās staying wet in the pot for too long (even though it is completely dried out right now). My question is what exactly is happening here? How can I save, chop and prop? What sort of soil mixture do I use? I repotted this guy about a month and a half ago with cactus soil, perlite and orchid bark. Iāve never had good luck with cactusāsš«

The roots have started to grow up what do I do?
Found baby gnats and adult gnats around my succulents today. Iāve had it with these gnats. They have infested ALLL of my plants. I use neem oil, soapy water, plant friendly pest control. And covering the soil with sand! I now have open containers of Tea tree oil and their caps filled. I put 1 drop into each pot. Am I doing something wrong?
Hi succulent circle!! My echevaria has a dying leaf and this is the second time this has happened, a couple of the leaves on the bottom are also looking like they are headed that way too :/ this happened one other time and I thought it was from overwatering but I havenāt watered it since. The leaves in the middle look nice and healthy but Iām still a little worried about her, any ideas of how I can help her or is it just not a super big deal??
Does anyone know if this is normal for this plant? Like the purple color to it? It wasnāt always like that
Help! Can anyone tell me what kind of sedum this is? I havenāt been able to find an accurate ID for it!
Went to a cactus and succulent show over the weekend and wanted to share some of my fav entries :) (more in comments)
I need some help please. I have a pencil cactus that I ordered on Etsy. It was in rough shape when it arrived. It has definitely grown in height as well as width but it is not red as it should be. Iām assuming it needs more light but I read somewhere that this particular cactus does not like direct light. I had a grow light right on it but then read that they donāt like that much light so I moved the grow light up quite a bit. Should I move it back?? Thank you!
I knocked off some leaves from my string of turtles putting her back after watering (š©š©š©) so Iām gonna try rooting the leaves. š¤š»š¤š»š¤š»
Built my first succulent garden yesterday, so exciting! Some plants are new and others were plants I was raising. Some are propagated. Waiting for lava rocks to be delivered. Slightly obsessed! Enjoy!
HELP! I am new to raising succulents and cactus so Iām coming to you or for some help. 10 days ago I took these little babies from their mother and everybody was healthy and happy. In just a few days, these two little guys turned kind of a darker color and now look sort of shriveled. I watered them when they were repotted and waited to water again until they were dry but they just donāt look very good. Iāve included a picture of them when they were nestled with their mother and looking really nice. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? šššŖ“
Iām plant sitting, sorta. This is hiding at my house until the daughter of the new owner presents it on Sunday as a gift. Not at my house. Gorgeous, right?!?! Iām not so secretly hoping I āhaveā to keep it for longer. Iām really shy about Golden Barrels, so this is a nice pace lol. The name emerged from the mouth of a seven-year old. It stuck š
Sharing my new babies. I just repotted these beautiful Drosanthemum globosum. Hoping they will thrive in the new pots
Where I work was giving out free succulent clippings so I took some and potted them. This is Clarice and she looks just a little dehydrated She didnāt have roots when I grabbed her out of the box so I put her in soil and watered it. Any extra tips would be greatly appreciated never owned a succulent before before.
My Tomās thumb is starting to droop and I opened it up, it was drenched, I pulled away any limp leaves, and repotted it in dry soil. Anyone have any other recommendations for what I can do to save this?
I came back from a week long vacation to find my cactus like this. Is this root rot and if so how do i fix it?
I havenāt had my succulent very long itās already stretching and growing taller, should I put it outside to get more sunlight that is needs, would it help with stopping it getting leggy?
Hello! So for my birthday, my brother and his gf gave me this small plant assortment. It definitely doesnāt look the same from when I got it but I havenāt killed them just yet. Iām seeing about four different types of succulents, I would guess? Does anyone know the best way to take care of these kinds of plants?
My SOP!
What can I do to make her look more alive
