[@PlantingwithTej]

Thank you Maya !

[@efisher93]

This is great! I have tried to propagate Jade from single leaf but they are rotting before curing or rooting.

[@PlantingwithTej]

Thank you. You can also propagate leaves without any water or soil. I have tried it. Just lay them on an clear plastic or glass tray. Keep them in indirect bright light. Spray them every day if it’s really hot and dry. If not then every other day is fine too. Sometimes they rot when we spray them too much and they are laying on the wet soil. Also if we forget to water and they started drying. Then we spray water after that. Then they rot too. You can follow what I showed in the video and see if you have any success. I hope you can figure it out. It’s very easy to propagate Jade stems and leaves.

[@michellerodriguez8034]

Also can you share what happens if your Jade plant get gnats? What is the appropriate way of dealing with that?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Sure I will in the future! If get gnats I only water from the bottom and keep the top soil dry. Also let it dry completely then gnat larvae will die. Adding mosquito dunks or bits work better than other things. I have used hydrogen peroxide and soak mosquito in water over night and water my plants with that. Water dunks helped the most. But it’s very hard to get rid of them 100%. Because these things are expensive and it’s a lot of work. But I have few gnats these days sometimes I don’t see any. I think if you have infestation then water your plants won’t mosquito dunk water for at least 4 - 6 weeks. When you see you have it under control , then start watering from bottom only. It helps big time.

[@PlantingwithTej]

Your welcome ! I only fertilize then once or twice a year. I plant them in organic soil. I use miracle grow shake’n feed or water soluble. You can use wash eggshells, crush them and mix the in the soil as well as coffee/tea grounds. Then you can fertilize once a year. It doesn’t require much fertilizer if you repot it every year in fresh soil.

[@Yemen335]

Informative and very helpful... Will we expect from you some advice on soil mix you recommend as there are many variations between growers

[@PlantingwithTej]

Yes some plants do require different soil mixture. I’m just keeping it simple for basic plants who can do well in regular soil. It keeps the cost down for the hobby. I sometimes add more perlite in soil for plants that need light and airy soil mixture. I’ll make a video about it sometime. Is there a particular plant variety you would like to know about ?

[@Motiviz]

Do jade leaf propagation requires rooting harmone?

[@Stephaniemickle]

Nope just misting

[@vandanad3786]

Wow ur jade is the healthiest n the most beautiful that I have ever seen.... I am only concerned about the soil mix... Plz can u explain what should b the content n ratio of the ingredients.

[@PlantingwithTej]

I don’t use any special succulent soil mix or anything. I use regular potting mix. I add some perlite in it to make it little airy. You mix 20-30% perlite. It doesn’t have to be exact. As long you let it dry out between waterings and give it full sun, it should grow well for you. Please check out my other Jade videos for more information. Feel free to ask any further questions. Thank you.

[@vandanad3786]

@@PlantingwithTej I watched ur vedios n clear about other requirements for this beauty.... But as I said... I am little confused by the term regular potting mix... Coz in India everyone has there own varient of potting mix.

[@PlantingwithTej]

I can’t recommend a particular brand of soil as I have used all sorts of different soils that are easily available in our garden centres here in Canada. Also people are watching all around the world so they might not find the soil I’m using locally. Jade plants are not picky at all about soil and fertilizer ( always dilute the fertilizer further) I think it would be a good idea to check with your local nursery in your country what they have for regular potting mix in your area. The one that’s available for growing seasonal flowering plants and vegetables. If you like just google miracle grow potting mix. Then you can see all the ingredients it has in it. I have also mixed regular garden soil with it as well when I run out. That’s how I know these plants are not picky about the soil mixture. But the sunlight and watering is way more important than anything else. As long you avoid very thick compacted soil that holds moisture for very long, you will be good. I don’t make any special soil mixtures for my plants. I just amend the soil with perlite or vermiculite according to the plant if it really needs it. Like plants that like a lot of moisture, I mix vermiculite as well. I don’t want to complicate it and make it expensive specially when it’s not necessary. There is no soil magic for the plant if it’s not getting the sun and proper watering it needs. I hope it helps but feel free to ask if I miss something. Thank you.

[@sofiawinberg3990]

hello, I have many stem cuttings from an old jade, I have let them crust over and feel like I should propagate them in soil, is there a huge risk of overwatering them? I feel unsure of how often I should water them when they are potted?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Hi you can’t follow a set schedule for watering. It depends on how dry or humid it is in your area or in the house. For new cuttings you can water them before they completely dry out and keep them in indirect light for few weeks until they are established. They are okay with little more water first week or so because they were drying out to heel the cut. But I would say after some time only water when the leaves look soft. Please check out my watering video for Jade and I have few other videos on Jade. Please check them out. Feel free to comment any further questions. Thank you.

[@Dashmiello]

I had my Jade plant in just water instead of soil for about 3 months and they are growing healthy. Will they last if I continue growing them in water? And just changing the water once or twice a week.

[@PlantingwithTej]

I have not grown any of my jade only in water but it will definitely can stay alive in water for long time. I would suggest you also add some liquid fertilizer every two months when you change water. Did your jade form any new leaves and stems while growing in water for three months ? Plz comment and share. I’m very interested in knowing if it’s getting bigger. But I’m sure that it will not grow as fast or get as big as it would in soil. I have grown around 50 plants from stem cutting and probably 100 small ones from leaf propagation all in soil. I have a 100% success with it. So I stick with this method. But I would keep one in water to see how does it perform. Plz update your experiment! Thank you for connecting!!

[@Dashmiello]

@@PlantingwithTej Perfect, many thanks on the liquid fertilizer tip. Will definitely note on that one. I started doing this set up since I'm quite traumatized on the first 3 low maintenance plants (I think? The palmera ones that got lots of leaves) I bought for myself during lockdown LOL. They all died one by one after 1 month. I think I did not take care of them properly. Now I had my snake plants and jade plants in water. I can see there have been new leaves growing on both of my snake plants and jade plants. It keeps coming on the end of my jade plants! I just don't know how to grow another stem from my jade plants though. Both also had new roots growing out so I'm really happy with them atm. They are all in my bedside table that is why I prefer water so, fingers crossed, they will last! :) Looking forward also to hear your experiment on jade plants in just water. Many thanks on your vlogs :)

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@Dashmiello your welcome. Palmera is not a very easy care plant. It can be tricky sometimes. I have killed a small one about 10 years ago. I think I over watered it. It’s always a learning process with plants. If your jade plant is growing baby plants at the bottom close to the root, you can cut it carefully as long as there is little bit of roots with it and place it in a closed container with soil like I have shown in the video or simply place them on top of the soil and mist daily. It will give your jade plant a chance to focus its energy into growing more stems at the top. If it was in soil it will be putting out a lot of new stems now since it’s spring time. Maybe after giving it fertilizer it will put out new branches for you. I have another video about trimming Jade so it can branch out. But I’m not sure how big is your jade. I won’t suggest trimming it unless it’s 10” tall and has multiple branches. I wish you good luck 🤞

[@daleandrews3552]

I liked and subscribed. You have a great channel with a lot of helpful information. What you didn't mention was root toner or rooting hormones. Surely that would be helpful in getting these babies off to a good start. I have a jade that lost leaves due to an overwatering incident that occurred a couple of months ago. I used the opportunity to start NEW plants! Boy, one must be patient, because this is a SLOW process. Just within the last week or so they're beginning to start to sprout baby roots. I'm still keeping them above soil until they're a little further along before I bury them for good. What are your thoughts on rooting hormone? Is it worth the effort?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Thank you so much for connecting and subscribing ! I know leaves take way longer than stem cuttings. Sometimes if they get the right environment, they can grow in 5-6 weeks. They like warmth and humidity. Mine grows better in morning sun in those glass containers. I never had to use any rooting hormones. Stems just grow roots within few weeks. For leaves since they stay on top of soil and I mist them daily so I don’t know if dipping them in rooting hormone would make any difference. I never look into it. If you tried it please let me know if it can grow roots faster. Let me know if you have any other questions.

[@evelynwong5643]

Hi i saw 1 stem that has the top stem rot n some leaves with black spot. I hv been placing them beside stain window with filtered light .

[@PlantingwithTej]

You should cut out the rotting stem and leaves. All the way when you don’t see rot in the stem. Keep cutting until you see all greenish yellow stem, no black or brown spots. I would take the plant out of the pot and check roots as well. In case there is a root rot. Then repot in a dry soil. Sometimes you will have no root rot but a stem will rot at the top or middle. I have seen a video like that. It could be fungal infection if roots are good. Then you have to cut any stems that are not looking healthy You should move your plant in direct light. Try moving it few feet away to a non tinted window or bright indirect light until it recovers.

[@evelynwong5643]

@@PlantingwithTej i check but no root rot however i saw no new roots n the roots are quite small n short

Jade plants have very small root system and very thin roots. As long as they are healthy, it’s good. I think it’s fungal infection that has started in the stem somewhere if roots are healthy.

Hi Jade doesn’t need any rooting hormone. I have propagated hundreds of them over the years without using anything. Yes the cut suppose to dry and fall off. Few weeks later it will start putting out new growth from the cut. I’m not really sure why it continue to dry. I have tried rooting hormone once when I was trying propagate bougainvillea. I tried both in water and soil with the rooting hormone. They all rotted and got fungus ( grey/green in colour). I wish I could give you a clear answer. Make sure it wasn’t underwater.

HOW is the jade plant leaves so large?

[@PlantingwithTej]

There are many different varieties of Jade. The one I have is the original variety of crassula ovata. But it also depends if your plant is getting enough light and are planted in a big pot. Plz check out two my other videos about Jade to see if you have the same variety. Then you can just follow what I’m doing with them. Mine always have big leaves. Even the small stem (4-5 inches) develop pretty big leaves as they establish roots. Plz feel free comment any further questions you may have.

Hi sis, I have watched all your jade plant videos repeatedly. You have very nice and healthy plants. I tried leave propagate by misting the soil, the leaves turned black . What had went wrong ?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Hey Evelyn, how are you? I remember emailing you back and forth last year. This years lots my leaves dried up and some just burst. I think I used the bad leaves. Sometimes when I don’t wanted my jade for long, some of its bottom leaves get too soft and wrinkly. I removed all of those and put them in soils trays. Some of them dirt before producing a baby plant. Make sure to use only healthy plump leaves for propagation and let them dry for 3-3 days before spraying the water on them. When you are placing them on the soil place the bumpy/ curved side up. In case soil is too wet underneath, they won’t rot. Also keep them covered with transparent lid but open the lid every few days. Also keep them in indirect sunlight.

[@evelynwong3142]

Thank you for connecting. They take king time to grow roots in water. I normally don’t use that process OTD takes very long. Just be patient, it will Toor slowly.

[@stratosaurusrex3399]

It’s October mid autumn in the UK now. Do you think any of the methods will work if I try to do it now? Or wait till spring/summer?

[@PlantingwithTej]

There is no particular time to propagate. As long as as it’s indoor. You can do it. I propagate year around.

[@stratosaurusrex3399]

Planting with Tej amazing. Ty for responding quickly. I’ll update you on how it goes. It’s my first time trying.

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@stratosaurusrex3399 your welcome! Sure let me know how it goes and if you have any further questions.

[@stratosaurusrex3399]

Planting with Tej I forgot to let them dry out before propagating. But I’ll leave them alone to see if it still works. 🤞I have more cuttings, so I’ll leave these ones to dry out and then continue. Is a windowsill a good location for autumn/winter in the UK. I don’t know what country you are in, but it can get cold in the UK this time of year.

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@stratosaurusrex3399 I’m in Alberta, Canada. I usually keep mine in east window during winter where it get morning sun. I keep it 2 feet away from the window. You can try keeping it in the windowsill. Make sure there is no heat vent or radiator blowing hot air. I keep mine in those clear containers and cover them with the clear lids like I showed in the video. You don’t have to cover them as long as you remember to spray them with the water.

[@evelynwong5643]

Hi , i might hv discover the cause. I didnot totally remove the old soil in the roots. So i notice some old soil attach to the roots. So i carefully riscqrd some soils from the roots. Then i repot qgain. Hopefully this will solve my problem

[@PlantingwithTej]

I’m pretty sure it would. Keep me updated.

[@evelynwong5643]

Yes thankyou

[@evelynwong5643]

I think the soil dherr i got it was not airy. I notice they look like a pack of hardened mud he h3 waa too afraid to repot itafter buying maybe that is why i lost 1 stem

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@evelynwong5643 yes it could be because Jade plants like very light and airy soil which dries out quickly after waterings.

[@evelynwong5643]

Hi Tej, sad to tell you almost all of my leaf propagation rotted or dried out since i stop covering them.

How to repot jade plant

[@PlantingwithTej]

You can repot jade when soil is little dry. Use a skewer to loosen the soil if it’s tightly packed. Then carefully hold it from the base of the plant and wiggle it out. You can gently remove the old soil by using your fingers. Then place it in a new pot. Place it little bit deeper then it was before. They get top heavy as they grow. Planting it little deep will provide some stability. Press soil firmly around the plant. Make sure your pot had drainage holes. You can use a regular potting mix and some perlite to it or use any other soil which is light. As long as water can drain out and the soil won’t hold moisture for too long. I normally make the soil slightly moist by adding little bit water and mixing it thoroughly. Just little damp soil not too wet. Because it’s so hard to make the plant stay straight in a pot with dry soil. Jade has thin and small root system. You can use bamboo stick or wooded skewer to support the plant until it’s settle in its new pot. You can wait for a week then water it. If you are choosing a bit bigger pot plz remember more soil will take longer to dry out. So water less in the beginning and always let it completely dry out between the waterings. I’ll make a video about how to repot a Jade plant in the future.

@@PlantingwithTej thankyou so kuch. I never have anybluck with jade plant n rose cabbage. They always died out . So frustrating.

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@evelynwong5643 your welcome ! I know it can be frustrating. It takes time to understand some plants. I have once killed a hydrangea and an Ivy. I overwatered them. Don’t give up easily. Let me know if you still have any questions 💚

What soil is best gor jade plant?

[@AbhishekJacob123]

Look at them huge leaves, even on a small plant! They are exceptionally healthy! Do you fertilize them? Any video related to that?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Thank you! I don’t fertilize them much but I plant them in organic potting soil mused with some perlite. I also repot them once year and once every two years for the big ones with fresh soil. Sometimes I crush washed eggshells and add them in the soil for a slow release fertilizer. Once a year I give them miracle grow liquid fertilizer and some times I don’t at all.

[@evelynwong5643]

I notice some brown are on the tip of the leave or on side of leave

[@PlantingwithTej]

Do you think it could be sunburn? You can send me pictures on [e-mail] if you like. I’ll help as much as I can with the knowledge I have. To be honest I own a lot of Jade plants never had black leaves. The only time one of my probation got sunburnt onit’s leaves coz I put it outside on the sundeck. It wasn’t really established and couldn’t handle the heat.

[@evelynwong5643]

May i ask whwre do you place all your jade plant indoor or outdoor?

[@PlantingwithTej]

Indoor I try to place most of them specially the big ones in south/ west facing windows. Where they get full afternoon and evening sun. Just a feet away from the window. If you only have access to morning sunlight that’s good too just keep them near the window. But in summer their leaves and stem get some red on them. I have to water little more than I would in winter time. Otherwise leaves get wrinkly and soft. Just to mention that I’m in Alberta, Canada and sun doesn’t set till night during summer time. We get really long days in summer. Please check out my other video about Jade. I have explained how I care for my jade plants.

[@PlantingwithTej]

Hey I got your email. You need cut out all the soft parts on the roots and if the stem above the roots is soft, you need cut from the stem and get rid of the bottom rotten part. Then cut even little more then the rotten (soft) part so that there is no chance of it spreading again. Then let the branch dry out of few weeks. After that you can plant in soil and water less for few weeks. After it’s looking good and established, slowly move it to direct sunlight.

[@evelynwong5643]

@@PlantingwithTej actually there was ni soft part the roots are ok n alive sk put them back. I am hv no luck with jade plant. Even my leaves propagation are nit showing progress. Never say die .

[@PlantingwithTej]

@@evelynwong5643 oh ok I just read and email hi are saying stem is getting soft. They are not suppose to soft. You should be able squeeze it and it should be pretty firm. Propagation usually take time. It’s needs be warm and indirect light and very light misting with water.

[@evelynwong5643]

Just check the jade plant its root rot so fast a few days ago everything was normal firm stem n all.

How do you feel bout LECA instead of soil, what do you think? Love your Jade plants ! 🙋‍♀️🌹💜

[@PlantingwithTej]

Thank you Erika. I have personally not grown any in Leca but I have heard mixed reviews. It depends on how long it will hold the moisture because jade like to dry out quickly after it’s leaves soaked all the water they need. But there is no harm in trying one plant in Leca. I would love to know how it went if you did the experiment. I personally have all my jade planted in regular soil mixed with some perlite like 20 % to add aeration so the soil can dry out quickly and doesn’t compact much. But I never over watered my jade plants even though I have them in pretty big pots.

[@Rajahmundry-timepass]

i just read subtitlets, what kind of medium u used in bowls for leaf propagation??

[@PlantingwithTej]

Any potting soil would work. It’s regular organic potting mix. Nothing special for the leaf propagation.
