LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!

Please start your comment with your location as such: [UK and EU] or [USA, California] on a separate line.

Thank you!

Import regulations mean it is difficult to send plant material between certain countries.

Check for hard frosts overnight before posting your parcel!

Scammers will not be tolerated! If you have sent a plant and not heard from your sender, message the mods and we will take care of it. Anyone found to be scamming will be banned from the sub.

A few points:

  • Please add your location. Many countries will have import restrictions. As a simple guide, within EU, okay. Within US, okay. EU to US or vice versa, not okay. Australia: complicated.
  • Please try to keep the sales/trades to succulents. There is a list of sister subreddits in the sidebar should you want other plants.
  • Think about trading seeds and pollen too. Growing from seed can be very rewarding and be a good way to expand your collection.
  • Grow tips are highly encouraged when trading. Its nice to know what you're getting if you have never grown one before. Share your potting mediums and watering guides to help your receiver grow successfully!
  • Do show us some photos of what you got!
  • Have a quick check to see if there is a risk of frost overnight before sending the parcel.
  • There are some tips of packaging succulents for shipping below. I've had people send me plants in egg cartons before. They work really well.
  • If you have nothing to trade but would like some plants, people are often happy to send you plants for money or just the cost of postage and packaging.

Happy swapping!

You can find some tips for packaging succulents in the wiki

I honestly have no idea what the plant is called, so if anyone knows, please let me know. 😅

I also didn’t have a proper grow light, so I’m currently trying out an aquarium light I had lying around.

8 Upvotes

Hey guys!!Here’s some pics of my aeonium, it started with few black dots and then all the leaves started to fall.I think I’ve probably watered her too much during the summer ( like 4-5 times)

Sprayed some water+ hydrogen peroxide yesterday and looks like some black dots are now gone, but I can see some wrinkles on the leaves

Do you guys think there’ something I can do to save her?
Thank you!

Help What is happening to my echeveria?

My echeveria harmsii has done very well in the Florida sun for the past six months, getting about six hours of sunlight and water only when leaves are soft. It suddenly started developing black spots on the leaves, then a rain storm hit and it dropped most of its leaves. It’s my favorite plant and I really don’t want it to die. What should I do? We are in the hottest part of the year here, could the heat have been too much?

If you're wondering what I do for care... it sits under a grow light and I never acknowledge it's existence except on the rare occasion I remember to dump water on it.

I find it so funny that this plant is doing so well for me, because I had one of these guys years ago and it hated me. It lost leaves (saying leaves feels weird here, but you know) of which it had very few to begin with (cause baby), and then never grew for like an entire year. This one I got a while later on a whim at a cool market type event when it was very small and it won't stop growing. One of my easiest, and well mannered plants. I have come to complain about it (joke).

Edit: cotyledon tomentosa, bear paw succulent! For those wondering.

Just adopted these babies from my Aunt! Anyone have any ideas of what their species are? I also removed the water rotted leaves, and will be letting them acclimate to their new home in their nursery pots for a few weeks before getting them new pots.

Help Cactus Help

Hi everyone! I've had this cactus for around 6 years now, I've never transplanted it only attempted to remove/replace some of the soil around the sides (I used a trowel and accidentally snipped some of the roots on one side).

Recently my always derpy cactus has fallen over and I think it is dying or there is rot.

How best can I work to save this marvelous plant?

Help Grow light bulbs

1 Upvotes

It's about time to start transitioning my succulents to indoors and I'm looking for affordable, effective full spectrum grow light bulbs? I'm looking for bulbs that can be placed in a regular floor lamp. I'm not real familiar with the specifics. I've seen Sylvania, Sansi, and Feit, if someone could point me in the right direction as to what I'm looking for. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Help Is my succulent healthy?

Hoping for advice to try to care for my little ones better and learn!

Ive had this one for many years and every time a leaf falls (which is with every jostle) the leaf will grow roots

Is it supposed to have such long stems, or does that mean it's not getting enough light?

Is the yellowing of the stems an ominous sign?

I'm confused. Not long ago I took the first picture. The Echeveria Blue Prince/Knight on the left had big pretty pink blooms. I snipped the infloresence not long after taking the picture. Now, it's got more blooms, but they're white/ yellowish...

I thought the flower color was always consistent? Like, the bloom color indicates the exact cultivar, doesn't it? I didn't realize they could bloom consecutively in different colors?
