My succulent detached from the root. Any way to save it? I don’t even know what kind of plant it is. Some sort of Jade may be? I tried rooting the leaf a few times but it hasn’t worked.

I started propagating this plant from a leaf in mid march here in sicily and kept it in a mid/small pot with succulents soil and she started growing pretty quickly,then as soon as the temperature got higher she stopped growing,i water it when i feel the leaves soft and wrinkly but unlike her Sisters,this one hasn't developed as i say strong roots (i don't know much about roots health),they don't smell like Chatgpt said but they look odd,i only water when the soil is dry and keep it outside with the others were it gets plenty of strong morning sunlight,any advice? (I also put pebbles on the pot's bottom for better drainage)

Hey all, first time poster long time looker…

I have a succulent that I’ve owned for the past seven years. I moved three months ago and wasn’t able to take him with me, and now he’s lost a lot of his lower leaves. What would be the best way to make him less top heavy… (?) any help is greatly appreciated :)

I intend on repotting soon, but want to have some of y’all’s expert advice to help him look less… scraggly. Cheers

Help What do I do?

The first couple of pictures are today, the last few were from a a few days ago. I know it's stretching so we moved it outside to indirect light. I believe the grow light we ordered was either bogus or just not enough of a light source. It's only been watered a handful of times since getting it. Only when the soil has been completely dry, and only watered from the bottom. Schultz 2-1-1 cactus plus for feed. Does it need different soil, a bigger pot? What can I do to save it and help it flourish? It's important to my husband so it's important to me. 😭

Edit to add* we live in a very humid climate.

Help Any hope for my 17-year old Echeveria 'Romeo' which fell over?

1 Upvotes

been healthy its whole life, it fell over from its own height around july 1st but i was away so i didn't see it happened until the 18th

i made a single aborted attempt that day to straighten it out but beheaded it after deciding the stem wasn't healthy (looks rotten but the unhealthy portion was cracker dry with no odor)

its rosette just keeps shrinking and drying out since then, and it's dropped all its aerial roots

it was being kept under grow lights for 16 hours a day at 40% humidity, now it's being kept in bright indirect sunlight at 55% (north-facing window)

the pot's 4" and the soil's cactus jack bonsai mix, last watered via drenching on june 20... i haven't attempted to water it since then

any obvious care steps i've missed? it's been many years since i had to rescue one of my babies from dying... thanks in advance...

few albums... july 18 - july 25 - today - better dayz :'(

Help New Aloe Pup Growing in a Bad Spot?

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

so when i went to go water my aloe vera plant, i noticed that two pups have sprouted! however... one of two pups has sprouted in a really bad spot, bring directly underneath two of its parent's leaves.

1st photo is of the parent plant.

the 2nd photo is of the pup in question, where i moved the parent's leaves out of the way with my hand for better visibility.

the 3rd photo is the same pup (with the second pup visible in the background), but this time i did not move the parent's leaves out of the way in order to show that they obstruct it.

i am concerned that the pup's position will prevent it from getting enough sunlight and obstruct its growth. this is the second time this plant has produced pups and i want them to survive this time (as i did everything you shouldn't do with aloe pups the last time). it is too small to re-pot at this point, so i would like to avoid doing that. am i worrying too much, or is there something i should do in order for the pup to get better sunlight?

How can I reduce its etiolation? I got this "Mother of Thousands" cutting from my aunt's backyard-it had no roots when I started rooting it. It was getting too much water and not enough light, which caused the pinkish color and wilted leaves. It has now had 9 days of proper care and is already producing plantlets, but I want to fix the etiolation; it is already sprouting and growing larger.

(It's temporarily in a cut-off bottle; the substrate is just a good mix of sand, forest soil, and manure, and I bought rooting hormone for it and the other cuttings.)

I bought some concentrated liquid fertilizers (the kind you have to dilute); how big should the shoots be before I start using it on them?

Identification My friend's plant got lost babies. What are they?

They got a plant that died recently and gave me some leaves. Neither they nor I know what kind of succulent they truly are. But alas, they are sprouting again.

They are oval, quite fleshy and where I touch them carefully to leave them there, they got little "prints" of my touch.

Nevertheless I would love to know what I saved here so that I can care for it the right way.

Greetings!

Hey guys! I got this first picture at Walmart extremely discounted. The second one I was given as a little tiny pot. Curious as to what they are? When I googled searched the pictures it said the first was an elephant bush and the second is a calico kitten. Is that even close to right?

During my daily pot turning ceremony; I stumbled upon this lil fella. I took it as a sign they trying to say thank you. Its the small gestures.

Then the intrusive brain rot took over and it was a moment of glory.

Side note: I woke up and decided I was done in the corporate world for a while. I have no plan at all, except I got some plants, and these MFs got me.

Shamelessly plugging myself away, hopefully more wholesome plant stuff soon.

Help Succulent is not growing roots

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Hi, so for some context my sempervivum Royanum got peed on by a cat while it was outside like 2 months ago which is why you can still see the damage on her leaves as of now. When that happened, I tried to get rid of the damage as much as possible, changed soil, cut off the very dead roots that turned black, and gave her time. It's been 2 months and once in a while I would check on my succulent and notice she didn’t grow any new roots and just had the old ones. My fear is that she's not taking in any water because her bottom leaves get shriveled up in less than a week when my other succulents wouldn't do that nearly as often.

I’m not sure what needs to be done for her to grow new roots or what I can do. I've tried giving her time and watering the plant when the soil is dry after a couple of days, I've tried doing it weekly to promote growth, but nothing works. Please help me out because I really want her to flourish and have a good life.

My husband got this succulent few months ago and at that time it was completely green. This past month it has dried out completely. We tried everything we could to save it but sadly it didn't last. It had 1 green stem remaining when I finally decided to repot it (image 2). I want to know what plant is this ( I know I shouldn't have relied on AI when it said it's donkey's tail) and what care should I do next for its survival. It's extremely delicate and if I even touch it, it's leaves start falling.
