Jade plants are very low maintenance, however they do suffer from problems and pests. Let’s learn some Crassula Ovata Care tips to keep your Jade Plant happy and healthy.
JADE STEMS STRETCHING OUT - If your Jade Plant is not getting sufficient sunlight it will become etiolated. Etiolation is a plant’s natural response to lack of light. Stems and the plant itself are stretching out towards the direction of the light source. In addition to the stem stretching out, you will notice that the spaces in between each leaf gets wider. The plant’s growth tends to be weakened when in this state. You may even notice leaves falling off subtly. See the comparison between these two Jade Plants. The plant on the right has large gaps in between each set of leaves. The plant on the left is more tight and compact with normal spacing.
When your Jade Plant grows too tall too quickly it will not look as attractive as it once was.
FIX A STRETCHED OUT JADE - Propagate cuttings to alleviate some of the weight on the top. You will eventually see new growth where you made a cut. Wait for the cuttings to callus over for 3-5 days and then place cuttings in well draining soil.
JADE PLANTS LEANING TO ONE SIDE -Jade Plant is not getting enough light it may end up growing towards the light and leaning to one side. Find a brighter spot for your plant and remember to rotate it to ensure it gets light evenly.
BROWN LEAVES OR DARK SPOTS ON JADE LEAVES - Most common reason for brown or dark spots on the leaves of your succulents is sunburn. This can happen if the plant is exposed to direct full sun or if the plant was recently moved to a sunny location without acclimating it first.
FIXING BROWN OR SUNBURNED JADE LEAVES
There is nothing you can do to heal the leaves that have been sunburned on your Jade Plant. Over time they will grow out leaving your succulent looking it's best once again.
If your Jade Plant leaves are more than 50% sunburned, definitely remove them. You do not want significant energy trying to save a sunburned leaf. New growth is where you want that energy spent. Brown spots or leaf burn on your Jade Plant could also be from too much salts. If you live in an area that naturally has salts or minerals in the tap water, these salts and minerals can cause your Jade Plant to develop brown spots on its leaves.
OVERWATERED JADE PLANTS - Jade Plants thrive with very little care under normal household conditions, when potted in well-draining soil. The soil must dry out before watering again.
Overwatering is the #1 killer of most succulent plants and especially Jade plants.

Like everyone else has said, this is the most helpful, thorough video I’ve found. It answered every question I’d been storing up about my jade plant...plus a few I’m sure I’ll have later!

[@MrsLadybug1901]

She sounds so much like Scarlet Johansson! I love how in-depth this video was. 😊

[@dangreisch1842]

That was excellent. I just had an over watering problem with my baby jade bonsai. I took it to the Chinese guy that sold it to me about 5 years ago. He said the same things you said. Thanks so much for the video.

Count me as a new fan as I'm just starting out with succulents- can't help it, they make me smile everytime I see them. Wish me luck❤

[@EmmieB91]

Legit, the MOST HELPFUL video I’ve found!! I felt like such a bad plant mom. My poor jade has been leaning, and is too top heavy to turn, but this has helped me really figure out what I’m going to do. Thank you!!

[@lorrihager1057]

I have I think maybe mineral deposits on my jade. I thought itv was just like the film to prevent sun burn at first bits only on my jade no other succulent. I did find one really small area on one that was sticky. Maybe a mealy bug. But I’m so new to succulent and jade I just can’t really tell the white powdery looking stuff come right off when I wipe it off. I’m going to treat it as mineral water deposits because I do run a humidifier in my plant room. I have a bunch of grow lights and the leaves do not get wet. I hope I’m doing right. The one I found that small spot of maybe sticky substance, I may treat that one for mealy, just in case.

[@psjn3429]

Thank you so much! This is so clear and the timeline in your description is so helpful. I’m hoping to save my poor Jade plant now rather than throwing it away. Most videos assume expert level knowledge already! I actually understand what you’re advising! Thank you
