Iâm new to having plants and was told succulents were a good first start. I saw this group of succulents and thought it was so pretty and had to have it. I got it around Christmas time and so far itâs been good. I just want to know any tips or advice from people who know more than me because I want them to thrive. I have not repotted them and was told by the store employee I wouldnât need to but Iâm wondering if I should repot at least one of them?
Idrk I need help and would love advice or suggestions.
Caretaking: I have them hanging above my sink in my kitchen by the window. I water them every 3-4 days depending on if the soil is wet (I put my finger in the soil about first knuckle deep) they get about 5/6hrs of direct sunlight because of where the window is in the house. Other than that I donât know if thereâs more I should know/do.
Thank you in advance.

I had an idea. Here it is haha. Five types of Euphorbia (all clipped from my plants) in what looks like a Thunderdome situation.
Depending on the source, the debate of filtered vs direct light for various Euphorbia differs. Iâm going to figure that out.

Help!
Plant newb here đđ» Iâve had this cactus for about 2.5 years. After a year I finally figured out how to properly water cactuses and he was doing so well that he needed a bigger pot (there was originally 2 but then he grew 2 babies)⊠well thatâs when the issues started. Mistakes were made in this process and I caused root rot with improper soil/drainage. (This was done in the fall)
After figuring this out and losing one of the babies đ⊠I cleaned up the rot, repotted him in proper soil etc.. (I did this 15 days ago) he seemed to be doing much better again. Had regained some colour.
Well⊠now Iâve noticed the smallest one has a huge black spot on the back.. anyone know what to do?⊠is this a sign that heâs healing from the rotâŠ? Or that I didnât do well enough cleaning it off and heâs still rotting?? I misted the soil a few days after cleaning him up but otherwise have not watered him at all since. (The new soil was dry) *last photo is from the day I cleaned him up

I need your help I bought myself a Birthday Present đ€ I purchased a String of Hearts at an online website and this is what I got personally I donât like the appearance and well itâs in a 2â pot terracotta. What can I do to make it look healthier. It looks a mess as if they ran out of plants and practically tie it together. And itâs not the case for the other plant I purchased. NâJoy Pothos

Succulent question for all you from the MidwestâŠ
Iâm from MN & been reading different succulent blogs. People mention placing indoor succulents outside in the summer. Has anyone done this?
Iâm a little scared to do this because of bringing bugs back into the house in the fall when it becomes too cold outside.
Iâm tempted to leave well enough alone and keep my plants indoors near windows year round.
Thanks for your thoughts & perspectives! âșïž

Hi I have a few points and questions I would like to ask about my succulents, 1. starting with the fact that Iâve had these succulents for about a month now and they still havenât really rooted, and Iâm wondering if thatâs bad or is it just winter and I need to wait longer or what.
2. Secondly I have a stonecrop that was etiolating, and so I got a grow light to provide more light and I have seen some visible improvements in the color, but I have also noticed there have been a few leaves that have began turning yellow and shrivelling. It also lots many leaves when it was etiolating and Iâm wondering they will grow back or not.
3. I have this cactus that had rot and I removed it and now Iâm wondering if itâs looking good or not.
4. My Echeveria has some yellow shriveled leaves and Iâm wondering jf itâs ok.

Iâm a younger teen and Iâm VERY new to plants, but Iâd really like to own and take care of some but I donât know whatâs best for me to start with? Iâm interested in succulents, cactuses, generally smaller potted plants and carnivorous plants and Iâm willing to put in the time and effort to care for them! I donât want to start taking care of one and it end up too difficult and it dies, I just donât know what kind of plant(s) to start with.. any recommendations?

Can anyone tell me whatâs wrong with my prickly pear? Sheâs 35 years old and I repotted because it was well over due! My grandma gave her to me and I want to keep her alive. Worried about this brown/yellow color, any ideas or advice?
