Iâm historically bad a succulents⊠but with the help from planta, a moisture meter, and lots of hard work it seems to have paid off. Propagations were ready to be planted and I resuscitated my grandmas mixed succulent pot so I repotted almost everything today⊠have some new propagation hopefuls.

So my Ghost cactus has still been growing but it has this rot in the middle should I be worried?

Anyone have any tips on how to help this little aloe get healthy again? The red and brown used to be much worse, but it's still not green and growing like I think it should be.
It's planted indoors with plant lights, in succulent soil. I've tried moving it to brighter light (I think that made it worse), modulating the watering schedule, and adding some plant fertilizer about once every 45 days.

I know cactus and succulent need very little watering but I moved my cacti to a less sheltered area last few month and they get a lot of rain (rainy season in south Florida) - so far they seem fine. Do you think itâs fine bc there are drainage holes and the sun dries it between afternoon showers? I also have agave and aloe and euphorbia you canât see in picture

I have been trying to care for a rat tail cactus for several years now. Itâs like having a cat. I love it and it despises my very existence.
This morning I see the fruits of my love showing up as large portions of rot setting in, again. Iâve chopped off the good parts to restart the plant, again. But honestly I am kinda over it. The only reason Iâm holding onto it now is it was a present from my hugsband (we have fun). If it doesnât survive this time, I think weâll try our luck with kids.
Seriously though, does anyone have advice? I would like to make this work.

My Moon Cactus got crown rot đą I had to throw it out. Just so you know crown rot is basically when black spots show on your plants. It can spread to other plants through air, roots touching other roots, and if you or something else touch another plant.

Hi everyone! Iâm fairly new to gardening. I have a couple succulents and cactuses and Iâm looking to repot. Some are starting to have roots growing from the bottom and some donât have enough space. I also want them all together for easier watering and moving around. It wonât let me attach all the pictures but hereâs some. I have soil, fertilizer, root booster, and pea pebbles. Any recommendation before I repot them ? I also posted a picture of where I plan on repotting them. The wood planter has a decent separation for drainage and thatâs why I put the pebbles.

Rescue update! Took this guy from my momâs house two and a half weeks ago. Leggy stem, dying leaves, no roots. Now cleaned up, in a pot that fits, and new roots are growing! I kill so many plants, itâs nice to save one for once!

Because no one - including me - can get enough of Lithops after learning that something like this exists in the worldâŠ
Various sizes. The tiny ones are kind of a side note in this adventure - they were tossed in as a bonus in a seed pack. My Lithops advice to me a year ago would be look at photos of crusty but healthy Lithops in living in the wild. Keep that image in your head as your plant morphs into something not exactly what myriad advice suggests ha. Letâs see if I get blooms in a few months.

Can anyone name this? Planta isnât conclusive.

Hey all! I have an odd question⊠long story short, I live in a tiny house so deciding where to put plants is difficult. So far Iâve been hanging most of my plants in macrame hangers on pullies to pull down closer to windows.
Anyway, my question is since itâs a small space with many windows, is it a big deal if full sun plants arenât in a south or southwest (I have southwest) windows? So far my plants seem to be doing ok, but wasnât sure about their long term health if I put them in a north or east facing window.
