In my experience hanging plants do not like to hang if they haven't rooted yet. It is better to lye them down in soil like it is their bed.

I killed my string of pearls by repotting it, so now I’m trying to save the rest that is left by propagation. 🌝✌🏻

[@OPandemonium]

Thats why I’m here.

[@dianacarmona3040]

[@SOLIDO-PS]

I killed it by over watering it. Damn pearls, they are so fragile lol

[@jacquistreek5604]

Love this - very simply explained. Short and sweet! Thank you for posting 💖

[@pennythatcher1306]

Interesting fun fact about the white light side of the pearl. Thank you for the video. 🤗🍀

[@jennypennybridge2877]

"Her hair looks like the plant" my man said, fascinated 😄 What a great compliment, huh? 👌

[@pottymouthedplanter]

Awwww that’s neat about the “window” on the pearls! Ok I’m gunna try propagate them! Yay! Thank you

[@lifestylebyvita]

Loved this. Will there be an update to this? I would love to se how the propagated string of pearls plant is doing 🌱♥️ Thank you for sharing 💕

[@MultiDaisy1995]

love the fun fact about the clear stripe on the string of pearls. 🥰

[@tulipanegradesign]

Thank for the short and concise video. It was very helpful.

[@riverroaminggranny9703]

Love that watering can!

[@snehadhanawade986]

This was very useful information, thx . I learnt a lot from your video .

[@user-bs1wg9dt1y]

Thank you! Your explanations are so easy to understand!! I appreciate that

[@YogaconMarinaBuedo]

Amazing video and really useful! Thank you!!

[@gimpynewman8893]

Hi.. this is one of my favorite plants ! Mine are very tiny..can you tell me what I need to do to make them larger like yours? Thank you

[@lprovard77]

Thank you for talking about the little clear window to aid in photosynthesis. I just noticed this about my string of pearls plant and I thought the “pearls” were splitting open!! I was super worried 😟

[@gardeningwithpleasure]

Nice info and nicely explained

[@seusku9622]

Hi, great video and can you please share your secret of having big size of pearls.

[@MeMarkG]

Thanks! Neat about the window on the side too!

[@SibbirAhmad]

great! I'd love to see an update, if possible, please

[@iwonkajam]

CIEKAWA ROŚLINKA.

[@Seiga319]

Will the individual pearls you’ve pulled off eventually propagate or just break down?

[@littlemissink]

If there is no node it won't root

[@Verseabl]

so.... how often should i water when propagating?? I'm used to propagating in water for monsteras and begonias

[@misswhackful]

that seems accessibly easy, i will try it thank you

[@meganpahl3612]

First of all, watch ALL you videos and you have been an amazing resource! I have a desperate question for you though regarding pearls. I have two very large ones and they are sooo easy to care for. I have never had a problem but recently, I had a run in with mealy bugs so one of the plants I sprayed neem oil but I can't get it off of the leaves and I am scared it will die. I have tried soapy alcohol water and while it killed the bugs, the pearls are sticky and I am scared it is blocking its photosynthesis. Secondly, the other plant was only the alcohol water but because I had recently watered it an now had to soak with alcohol and rinse daily until the bugs were gone, my pearls are showing random water-filled and rotting pearls. How can I save it?! I am restarting from both plants just in case but don't you have to bed the stem under the soil and then wrap it around on top of the soil for it to root? Meaning, the end we remove a few pearls from has to be embedded in the soil correct? Can we just lay the entire strand over the top without burying it? I do not want to loose these as I have worked very hard to grow them as large as they are but the neem oil really took a toll here. How can I fix rotting pearls, how can I propegate safely, and how can I get neem oil off?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jell0pudding580]

Thank you!

[@maryrapach9625]

Very informative

[@TheOpenminded27]

Thank you for the great information!

[@potato32salad]

Can you do anything with the pearls? Do they grow?

[@micheleplouffe2929]

Thank you very much!

[@marilynwilson2326]

I've tried both ways. I killed it!😢 they turned white and moldy looking, no matter how much or little I water them. They also shrivel up. 😮 I guess I need to go get another and try again. 😊

[@kalyarother]

When do you first water them after placing your cutting in soil?

[@nicogs97]

You want to fully water it only after It fully grows roots. If you water it as a cutting the water will just sit there since there’s no roots taking in the water. This is dangerous since it can cause the plant to rot. The pearls have enough water inside them that they can last a while with no water. A good way to know if they need water is if they start getting wrinkles or shrinking. You can also touch them and if they are sticky it means they need water. In that cause you can just spray them with water using a spray bottle.

[@noemitellez3098]

@@nicogs97 so let the cuttings sit on dry soil until they look thirsty ?

[@nicogs97]

@@noemitellez3098 Yes, or you could just spray them with water but not get the soil too wet because you don’t want them to rot. Once they establish roots you can fully water them.

[@rachelahrumseo6655]

Thanks for the great tip!

[@nusratmejba822]

Nice pots

[@OHDANB]

I put several stems from a friend's plant into a pot using this method. (Twisted off pearls along 3" of stem and inserted the stripped ends into soil.) The remaining pearls are "shrinking" and there does not appear to be any new growth. I have been keeping the soil moist, but not overwatering. I know an established String of Pearls plant requires very little water. Is keeping the soil moist still too much water when trying to establish a new plant from stems?

[@ninetails961]

Everytime I’ve seen people do cuttings the soil was dry and they would just mist the top. I’ve taken that to mean that they require very little water but still need that misting from time to time until they are established. I could be wrong but that is the consistent thing I’ve seen through a lot of channels

[@MaruyaSAg]

If you plant the string of pearls like in 0:49 where you just place the whole length on top of the soil, will it produce a "branch" at each node? If yes, then, if someone is starting with just a limited number of "strings", that would be a good way to get an even growth, albeit it would be slow and would take a long time before there are going to be strings "flowing" over the pot.

[@user-sf9pz5wv2u]

Can you start string of Peals form a bead ?

[@rebeccajones9006]

Where did you get that watering can??

[@jsarahina]

is this applicable to all strings plant? like turtle, dolphin, hearts, buttons?

[@appleeyes4103]

Thank you, I would like to know of this work the same for fishhook or banana plant?And how long before the new grows comes in.

[@AndreaCarmona-it3xc]

Can the plant propagate with just the pearl? Did you just discard the pearl after removing it from the stem?

[@yourbananamilk]

Soil of my indoor plants are turning white... is it harmful??how do I remove it😔

[@mb4139]

Great video

[@EpistemeUM]

Many thanks, again! I don't think I've ever seen a YT video with almost 70 likes so far and no dislikes LOL I was wondering if you've ever propagated from a single pearl. I have bananas, read that it could be done, and have some rooted, but so far no movement. I'm wondering if they needed stem material, as many succulents do, and these may have broken off without any. I found these singles in the soil of my plant, so I have no idea how close to the stem they may have broken off. Thanks again and love your vids!

[@mowganashwey]

I'm curious, did you ever find that your single pearls took off? :)

[@04DynaGlyde]

Will the pearls themselves root?

[@CrystalWhitlow]

Loooove! Thank you so much!!!

[@ritaramaglia4528]

Lovely video

[@Angie-ux4pp]

I just noticed my pearls at the top are drying out 😭😭😭 what should I do??

[@viktoriyakuznetsova803]

Hello. Can you help me with my string of perl. it’s been couple months since I’ve been growing this plant. The string keeps growing but there’s no pearls on it(( what can I do? Thank you!

[@aubreyflores4874]

thanks for posting this i’m about to go steal my moms plant and make baby ones

[@gopdeep]

It looks so easy here but I have got 2 strings from my friend and still struggling to establish . I am sacre it may die .

[@broccoligirl9019]

So I could've propagated the string of pearls branch that fell off when I was checking for pests before I bought it ( I didn't buy it had pests)

[@swagatadatta5856]

After that when I water them for first time and how frequently I should.... Please help

[@samanthacrouse-eldridge8406]

This answered my question perfectly! Thank you for sharing. 🪴

[@leelat8230]

Can you just get one pearl and plant it? Or does it have to be stem of pearls?

[@funesjudith7234]

The plant I want soo bad😩😩😩😩

[@margretmorris5299]

Amazing info thanks, I have one now I’ll try your methods, plastic ones are $12 Australian now I’d prefer the real thong

[@remiska8655]

Do you recommend plastic or terra cotta pots to propagate & grow? I currently have both going.

[@bunaynayslay]

I use plastic containers that Home Depot gives away for free in an attempt to recycle! Works great for me

[@emilycook3790]

If you're an over waterer, terracotta is the way to go. If not, plastic is ok.

[@sabrinasnyder5367]

Does it have to be cactus mix?

[@mahuyapal1050]

how to make soil for string of pearl?

[@kristinehambarzumyan3752]

I put it in the water and then got root

[@risamondragon1088]

I did the same and got a pretty good root. Have you put yours in a pot yet?

[@gnanagowthami.m109]

I have only one pearl just a single pearl not a string can I propogate it

[@50--11]

💍

[@lavvy2585]

I tried doing this in the circle, it rotted quickly.

[@surendrasaluja859]

How often should we water it ?

[@zioledeux8217]

When the soil is completely dry , the roots don't like being damp as this leads to root rot . Don't water more than once a week 😊

[@brittanybouchard4494]

I’m trying to propagate my string of pearls from one pearl again, I’ve done it before and then I moved and it died. Am I the only one who’s done this before?? I’ve searched everywhere for other videos of it being done & can’t find one anywheres 🤔

[@claramjl9048]

Very difficult. I killed it and trying to save the left over 😰😰😰😰

[@AbdurRahman-rr4gt]

[@kandyl34]

I have 1 string left 😢

[@callumbyars4538]

Is this actually Laura that created this channel

[@GardenAnswerHighlights]

Yep! We’re not really promoting it right now. Just wanted a place where we can put little snippets or shorter versions of our videos. 😀

[@layanf4963]

pov: you killed ur plant and ur trying to save it🤭

[@maryrapach9625]

It's called propagating

[@Fatima-qx6uw]

I don't even have this plant why am I watching this........??

[@christoduplessis8177]

Take this as the massive compliment that it is, but I hate you for that string of pearls in infront of you 🙈 I can grow anything but can't keep the SoP alive at all.

[@BlackSheepIncorperated]

I think string of peas!
