My young gollum jade died a while ago. Even though I had it in proper soil mix, ceramic pot and didn't overwater it, it still did succumb to root rot, which consumed the water-carrying core of the plant; this caused the entire plant to stop retaining water, which probably exasperated the over-watering issue as I couldn't quite understand why leaves remained soft and wrinkly despite taking care of it. After a while it stopped growing and all the leaves began to drop, you could see the brown rot coming out at the tips where the leaves connected. Luckily, I saved the healthy leaves, re-potted them and now I have a bunch of healthy, young gollum jade plantlets growing. Lessons have been learned!

Funny thing about putting the plants outside in the summer-I live in the desert southwest of the US, and I can tell you that jade plants must be brought inside during the heat of summer! Portulacaria afra (elephant bush) is the only variety I know that can take the heat. I’ll have to find out about the Gollum variety. I usually wait until the temps start to hit 40º regularly, then the plants come inside until about November when they go back outside where they thrive until next year’s heat rolls around. When I first moved here from LA, I brought a huge jade plant that I proudly displayed on my front porch. It made it until about August, then I noticed it drooping a bit, then it happened very fast-within a week it seemed to actually melt, the entire plant seemed to lose its coherence and turned into a pile of brown mush. I cried-I’d had that plant for nearly 20 years, and it was too big to move inside-even cutting I took from the dying plant didn’t take. Now I keep them small, so that I can bring them inside.

@EverythingPlants Жыл бұрын
You can definitely propagate them. Are you wanting to place them in the same pot or a separate pot? Basically you let the end callus over for a day. Stick it right back in soil.... I don't water for about the first week to 10 days. The plant will use nutrients and water from the thick leaves to produce roots. If you water right after planting, there are no roots to soak up the moisture and there will be a chance of rotting the stem. So that's why I like to keep the soil dry for about that 10 days. After that just lightly pull up on the stem and if there's resistance then it means there's roots. I will lightly water around the stem so those roots can soak up the water. I don't soak all of the soil because it'll just stay too wet. Let it dry out again and then water lightly. You may notice some wrinkly leaves and may even drop some, but that is completely normal and it will soon grow enough roots to soak up more moisture and getting those thick leaves again

Nice plant…I have a small one ….actually there are two stems in my pot. It’s in S facing window and it looks healthy but it’s very slow growing; I’ve had it for a few years. The smaller of the two stems is leaning towards one side probably because of spacing so I’m wondering if I should try and separate them. 🤔They were together when I got the plant and I potted them up together over a year ago. I hate to mess it up but I may take a look at the way the roots are situated and then decide. I saw one at a nursery once that was a 3 foot shrub….it was huge!
@EverythingPlants2 жыл бұрын
Most times the stems lean because of the weight of the leaves in proportion to the thin stems. Over time, and with pruning, the stem will strengthen. I guess it depends on what you want the end goal of the plant...tree form or multiple stems in one pot. If you want the tree form then it will probably be easier now to separate it and let it heal and grow.

Help! I've had my Gollum Jade tree for over twenty years now. The leaves are starting to fall off and a lot of them are shriveling up. My routine is the same. When this started occurring, I felt it needed more sun, so it's now closer to my southern window to receive more sunlight. I am using regular soil and I do fertilize it a few times a year. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I love this plant and I'm hoping to bring it back to life. Thanks.

Thanks for this video! My Gollum Jade leaves are dark green and wrinkly and I can’t figure out what might be going on. I definitely don’t over water it. Might you have any ideas? Thank you!
@beccakarner2662 жыл бұрын
Okay, I just have to come back here and say that I did everything you said in this video (transplanted it into a terra cotta pot, gave it a thorough soaking… I had been afraid of overwatering it so had been giving it sips of water here and there… turns out I wasn’t giving it enough water, and put it in a south facing window… I had it in a north facing window previously) and a week later the leaves are all bright green and plump! Thank you so much for all the info in this video!!!

Great video thanks! My gollum jade's only small at the moment, but I hope it'll turn into a tree like yours! You said you can take them outside in summer - Is it okay to take them outside on sunny days and then bring them back inside every evening during summer? I did that last year and it didn't die, but I think I read somewhere it can shock the plants if you move them indoors and outdoors a lot? UK summers (at least where I live) aren't warm enough to keep succulents outdoors all summer and I really don't want to kill my gollum jade this year!😅

That seems like a lot of work lol. Maybe try it for one season outside starting with a shady spot and moving it to a brighter spot. See if it responds to the summer heat and sun. If not then keep it indoors...I've only taken mine outside one summer (one plant) otherwise they do great indoors for me. Just give it time and it will get larger. Good luck!

Jades can handle colder weather. I think they prefer it. I live in central Florida and we get into the low 40s and upper 30s at night sometimes in late winter. The do fine. I would bring them in if it got down to freezing 32°. It almost never does so mine stay outside all year.

I always love watching your Jade plant videos. I have the Gollum one and the Crassula one. I had it one year now. I cannot wait to see mine when i get the thick trunks i grow mine indoors so taking longer to achieve but in no rush. I also use the cotton bud method to clean plants that are hard to get in with a cloth. I love when they become sun stressed has a lovely reddish hues to them. Yours look more green in colour. Do you know why they sometimes look wrinkled looking? I only water them why they need too? Could it be the air in your environment aswell? During the cold seasons i do have the central heating on. I just uploaded my plant collection please check it out. Thank you.
@EverythingPlants2 жыл бұрын
Hey Mandi! I will definitely check out your collection today. This plant has only ever been indoors as well. I think I may take it outside in the summer and let it flourish. It honestly seemed like it did nothing for the first two years then exploded. If they soil is dry and has been dry for awhile, then I would say they are dehydrated. I try and avoid them getting wrinkled like that by testing the leaves like in the video. Don't forget to fertilize if you don't already.

My Gollum is kind of puckered, the leaves are that is. is there any trick to getting them back to bright green and full? I have been trying to starve it then water it and I have tried giving it regular water but nothing seems to make the leaves fill out. I don’t know how to attach a pic here would love to show u. It’s a big one. Thanks for your content

Is it possible for a jade plant to have both spade and gollum shapes? I just took a cutting from a big bush which I thought (visually) was a regular spade shaped jade plant and found out the cuttings itself was gollum shaped!

Lots of helpful advise, thanks so much. Two questions, first I bought a little gollum at Home Depot and it has what looks like 3 plants In the pot, should I separate them? Second, last summer I put my regular jade outside and it did great. I even left it out in any rain. Total novice, is that okay? Or did I dodge a bullet? Thanks.
@EverythingPlants2 жыл бұрын
If you want like the individual tree forms then you can seperate them or keep them all together and get a bushy one. Both are super cool. Don't forget you can keep the busy one and once it starts to grow you can always take cuttings and start a single stem one down the road. Totally okay to leave them in the rain, but if it's a lot of lime a few days then I've just placed mine in the shed so it doesn't drown them. Rain water is best though!

I have a hobbit jade which started out having leaves like this gollum jade. I am not sure if they are the same but my leaves used to be shaped like that but slowly over time they loin like regular had leaves now. Did I do something to it. I know I have not cared for it as well as I should.
