"I have less casualties with cocopeat" 😂You made my day today! ❤ But, seriously talking, I always admire people who can take care of so many plants. I limited myself up to 20 outdoor trees, shrubs and flowers and up to 5 indoor plants and they all succulents. Then, this summer I found information that I can propogate succulents from leaves;so, I decided to give it a try. OMG, now my head is spinning around - who do I check first, which plants do I need to water, move them from window to window. Looking forward to upcoming winter, when at least I don’t need to worry about outdoor plants. Checking leaves pretty much every other day for roots or babies, separate them. Life became very busy.

[@janetac1738]

I love your propagation videos! I am crazy about propagating. Sometimes when I go to the store and I see a plant that I want and if I can find a leaf that has fallen or I ask if I can pluck one leaf and they let me I would rather propagate it than buy it!! (I always always ask permission) So if my mother leave has fallen off and there are absolutely no roots just lay it on top of damp soil, not wet soil. Gotcha. Also when I have these huge giant thick pink aerial roots and I cover them up with soil they always pop back out of the soil LOL it doesn't matter how wet I keep it so I am actually going to dig a hole on those ones today and bury them like that rather than just putting soil on top of them. My babies grow fast like yours so I must be doing something right and every time you do a propagation video you just make me feel so confident in myself lol❤️❤️❤️

Hi Liz! I have had lots of success propagating various echeveria by "chopping the head off", like you showed in this video, but my leaf propagations have been less successful. The leaves always grow lots of strong, large roots, but never any new leaves/baby plants. Do you have any suggestions? I've tried having them in trays of soil in my south facing window, as well as under a grow light. Thanks!

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Some variety, some TIME, only grows roots. In other times, they grow pups. Putting the leaves on top of paper towel and nothing else and under a lamp with constant moderate temperature helps. Only put them in soil once pup and roots are prominent. Good luck!

[@kairicelestialgoddes]

Hello! Love you videos! Learning a lot from all your vlogs! I was wondering how your succulent in the videos got root rot from previous owner not watering them and keeping them very dry? I tend to do that with my succulents since I so scared of root rot:( when I receive succulents in the mail I do soak the dried roots with seaweed and water before planting them. Should I water them regularly instead of waiting for signs that they really need water?

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

When and if the soil dries up, succulent will take water from anywhere it can, including itself. Therefore, the root rot. Succulents need regular watering. You just have to "let the soil dry up" between watering, but not too dry that the plant will show sign of dehydration.

It might have to do with the dormancy of the succulent you're trying to propagate. For most succulents, pluck the leaves at the end of summer. Autumn, Winter & Spring is the best germinating time. Depending on the species, just give it some time and it'll happen.🥰

So Liz ( I can’t stop watching your videos! your enthusiasm and fun loving personality is so warm and I just want to be your friend lol ) anyway these videos will have to do… my QUESTION is can we do a shortened 123 version? Lol as I understand step one - pluck the leaves and place on paper or cardboard with no water and place in bright light about a week Step 2- after a week or so place on damp coco peat Step 3 do I water when placed on peat? And bright light? No cover correct? Step 4 keep lights bright and watering every day? I’ve been having less that desirable results with my leaf propagation- I do have one PVN leaf that looks promising but my stump and head are going strong yay! I just need a little help with directions on the leafs- I’ve watched so many of your and a few others but I remain unsure ( I’m usually VERY good with directions lol)

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Step 123 is how a lot of unsuccessful propagation happens as each individual variety of succulent(For ex. Echeveria) have different growing needs and different 123....LOL You can pluck a leaf from an Echeveria Laui and wait for it to grow and sometimes when plucked in the wrong season can take a long time to germinate. On the other hand, If you plucked a leaf from an Echeveria Afterglow....it will never germinate. At least not in my experience. Now we have different species like Graptopetalum, Pachyphytum, Aeonium, Graptoveria. Pacheveria, Sedum, Aloe, Crassula, etc....Just to name a few and 123 won't do. Now when it comes to watering, soil mix, acclimatization; just to mention some topics....They all have different treatments as well. And they say succulents are so easy to grow....LOL

There's no guarantee or a way "to be sure" that something will grow or not even if you 'TRY' to do everything right. Sedum jelly beans pup up quickly but if you soak them in water....they won't.

Hi Liz! Love all of your videos, have watched them all, and I especially love the longer ones. Quick question, if you have time to give. How much do you think different climates (humid versus arid) affect how and how much babies and leaf props should be watered? It’s humid here and I’m always afraid to get the leaves wet. Thank you!

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Hi Jennifer, You ask a very difficult question that needs a half hour video explanation which I did in dribs and drabs on different videos, but lets see how I go... Here in Canberra at the moment, rain is 70%, the temperature is 18°C and we have 81% humidity. I have a couple of echeverias that had too much to drink. We have more rainy days to come. I also have some that I'm soaking in rain water up to now. They've been in there for 3 days. If the mature plant is nice and plump, then you don't need to water and if humidity is high, its best to keep them on the dry side and only water them when the weather cools down and when they're showing signs of dehydration. (always check what the weather is doing). Root rot happens when the "leaves get wet and the roots stay dry." If the roots are absorbing water, this stops the leaves from absorbing water. Less chance of rot rot. And always make sure no contact between the leaves and the soil. Best to use some top dressings that doesn't hold moisture. Glazed pots are a no no unless you got good draining soil. A porous pot is better. Also hot days and high humidity spell disaster when succs got too much water because they'll boil and the plant melts and die.(keep dry in humid days) The propagated babies with roots I water everyday or two depending how dry the top soil gets. They can take in more water when they're young compared to the oldies.

I keep the soil as every time the grown babies get transplanted, there'll be less coco peat/coir; then I add more coco peat to top it up to grow the next batch.

Nakakatuwa po ang daming nag success sa leaf propagations nio Mam Liz💗 mas ok po ba na sa tissue or cardboard muna ilagay kapag wala pa pong ugat ang leaf? Kailan po dapat ilipat sa soil kapag my ugat or pup na po? Saka kailan lang po sila unang pwedeng basain & tuwing kailan po? Nag rot po kc ung sakin na absorb ata ng sobra ung moist ng soil kahit onti lang pinatak kong water & sa isang area lang.. Thank you po😊

Hi Liz! My succulents have been growing like crazy because of your videos. I know you said you water your leaves daily, (which I do!) But I'm wondering if you have any expertise information you could help me with. I'm wondering at what size should you start to water them less? What do you recommend for watering on your adult succulents?

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

It all depends on your soil type, the plant and where it's planted. Rule of thumb is to let the soil dry up before watering again.

[@vijayasawrikar5454]

Hi Liz, I love watching your highly informative vidoes. Yesterday, I watched your show about the crushed granite vs decomposed granite. As you were showing, using decomposed granite was much more laborious than the product you were using. Would you suggest any other product equally good but which does not involve hard work as I am partly disabled. I would be so grateful to you if you can suggest an alternative. Thanks

May I suggest watching my video on Succulent Tropical Soil Mix. The ingredient for this can be easily obtain online. Good luck. SUCCULENT TROPICAL Master Soil Mix - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKHWo314mcxkr7M

How long do succulent leaves grow new roots? I have no problem with Fred ives, they regrow like "crazy" But i face a problem with other kinds.

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Succulents grown from leaves vary according to species and variety. Some will grow visible bumps in a week and others can take months.

[@alidawerning103]

Hey liz I propagated a lilacina from leaf and it looks like its three heads (not 100 percent sure) it was doing great and had roots. I checked last night and looks like fungus gnat larvae ate the roots!! Do you think it will grow new ones? The mother leaf is getting kinda see thru now. Babies about the size of my finger nail. 😭🤯

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Since it's already got roots, I would advice to remove the mother leaf. Best of luck.

[@amandagormley3007]

Thank you for another long video

[@zarinaliwag1310]

I like watching your videos and I have learned a lot from it. Your succulent plants are awesome! Do you sell them? I’m interested to buy, can you ship it to New York?

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Not selling ATM and can't ship outside Australia. Thanks for watching.

[@fireroum]

How long does it take for a leaf to put out roots or buds (whichever comes first)? I can never get mine to put out roots, and they just shrivel up on me after waiting for months.

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Depends on the plant, the season/temperature and where you place it. Rule of thumb for me is to keep them where the mommy plant is and always propagate or harvest the leaves in their growing season. Different succulents have different dormancy period.

[@shankersharankafir3142]

Hi Liz, thank you for your informative videos! I'm a little confused with lavender pebble leaves and when to put them in soil. I was given 3 leaves. Two had tiny little roots so I rested them on soil and misted (the person who gave them to me told me to do that). One rotted and died :( The other leaf didn't rot and has 3 roots and still resting on soil. Should I take it out of the soil until it has more roots and pups? How often do you mist then once you put them in soil? Thank you so much for any help!

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

The only ones I mist/water(PREFER) are the ones that are rooted and have a pup. I never water/mist/wet them until the babies and roots pop out. Then I water my rooted baby lavender pebbles everyday since I grow them in coco peat until they're big enough to go into my master soil mix...then I water when the soil is dry or the pot is light.

[@monkeymoomoo1997]

@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Thank you Liz :). No wonder my poor leaf died. So sad. I'll take your advice and leave the others well alone and wait for roots/pups!

Thank you, Liz, for doing this one. I miss out visiting the babies when I was there😃! So many babies 👏 How do you decide using the soil or coco coir peat for growing the babies? The laughing sound effects is funny 😂 I would like to have some pink kerisa rosetto (spelling right?)if you are ready to sell. 🥰

[@GrowingSucculentswithLizK]

Coco coir is best for babies as seen on the video. I only have a couple of Callisia Rosato left to propagate and it's going to take me all summer to do it. I'll save some for you when I do have new babies if you can wait that long.

Hi Liz! My name is Brookie - I recently turned 16 in December and also live in Australia! I have grown a huge passion for growing succulents and have even started a small succulent business from home and hope to be a stallholder at a local market in the near future! I recently came across your channel and am so glad I did, I am learning so much from your videos! I am wanting to propagate some of my succulents from leaves however, I wanted to ask you a little question before I go any further! Would you suggest placing the calloused leaves on top of soil or in a cardboard container containing damp paper towel to root? Thankyou so much 🌼🥰🌸🌈
