Potting up succulent leaf propagations...what happens next

[@Clarachk]

Another, most helpful propagation video from you! You are definitely a favorite succulent vlogger for me. I have learned so much from watching your channel over the past few years. I still have a long way to go but teachers like you make the journey so much less frustrating! Growing succulent babies is a trial of patience for sure. And, watching your vlogs reminds me that the wait and gentle touch we need to give them is worth it. If I don't end up with a successful prop, then at least I have the opportunity to learn a valuable lesson in the process of "failing". Thank you for sharing your garden gifts with us! (PS... You remind me so much of an Andrea that I went to school with on Long Island, in NY. We were neighbors for a short while and I wonder about her from time to time. )

[@SucsForYou]

Aw thank you for the kind words! It's nice to hear from a long-time plant friend and follower!

[@mrs.t7254]

Please keep giving us updates so that we can see the growth!

[@barryauguste9734]

Perfect timing Andrea! I use the winter solstice as my birthing point - I'll pot up succulent leaves, repot my bonsai and start increasing the light on my growlights. By Imbolc (Feb 2nd) I'm in full-on growth mode. Also this year, on Dec 21st we have 'The Great Conjunction' between Jupiter and Saturn.....first time they've been so close in 800 years (1226ad), so its especially auspicious for our sucs who know so much more about the universe than we ever could! Keep growing Andrea...

Your videos are amazing and I love your Sucs for You name is awesome..

Thanks so much Jen! It kinda all began with the name - I'm a major sucker for puns 😬😂

I love little updates on plants. It’s fun following their journey with you. 🪴💕

I'm so glad you're watching along! 🥰💚

[@sheriosborne7855]

I love your channel. propagation has been difficult for me . not a lot of success. Until I got a tip to place my tray in a plastic zilch bag and mist it every 2 days. Lease it a little one and place it where it can a little light. The best results I've ever had.

[@SucsForYou]

That's so great a humidity dome is working for you Sheri! Would you mind sharing your general location/climate and if you're growing them indoors or outside?

[@sheriosborne7855]

@@SucsForYou I'm in los angeles, san fernando valley very warm. Most of my succulents are on my patio. The propagations are in a east facing window with indirect sunlight.

[@SucsForYou]

@@sheriosborne7855 Aha! That makes perfect sense because it's so dry there too. This information will be helpful to others in similar climates - thank you for sharing!

Baby leaves are very cute and lovely ^^

[@StaceyHerewegrowagain]

I love seeing baby succulents propagating into little plants of their own 😊it's so much fun, but can be stressful in the beginning without too much experience lol. Great info Andrea! 💕 I always love to see what your up to there in Houston Texas 😊 Have a beautiful day🍃🐞

Thanks so much Stacey! I hope you have a nice weekend!

Awesome video! Great info and i love the close up photos of the propagations, their new roots and interesting colors. Thank you! 🌺

Thank youuu! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I love taking macro shots too - seeing what's happening up close is crazy!

Thanks for another great video! The leaf bebes are adorable, looking forward to seeing them grow. I’m trying to prop some leaves, and not kill some pixie succulents i ordered... your videos have been so helpful!

Thank you!! Enjoy your new bebes Randi! 💜💕

top video 👍

[@Nurturingmeals]

If I have lots of succulent leaves, broke off, what’s the best way to plant them or let them grow so they regrow new ones. I see here you laid them flat. How about it I insert them into soil upright? New to planting succulents

[@lesw3803]

I really enjoy your presentation style. Do you have a mother of thousands video?

[@SucsForYou]

Thanks! I don't have a video just about MOTS but here's an article on my site. sucsforyou.com/2018/09/17/the-many-mother-of-thousands/ -- and here's a vid on my Kalanchoe collection - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rV7dfH18nZZrY7M

[@evelynkuhleman2999]

Yes. My MOT is getting top heavy & I’m so nervous about trimming it. 😬😓🤪

[@SucsForYou]

@@evelynkuhleman2999 It will probably branch into 2 plants where you cut it and then you'll have the topped portion too!

[@Skyy_479]

Love seeing all the little baby sucs ♡ I'm still working on one of my own that I started this past summer. *I live in North Dakota; what growing zone would I be in?

[@SucsForYou]

You can search for your USDA zone by zip code but I found this for general North Dakota zones: www.ufseeds.com/learning/planting-schedules/north-dakota-vegetable-planting-calendar/#:~:text=North%20Dakota%20is%20in%20USDA%20plant%20hardiness%20zones%203%2D4.&text=North%20Dakota%20on%20average%20has,the%20last%20and%20first%20frost.

Hay noooo!!!😱😢 yo tenía un bulbo de esa planta y no se que pasó porque se le fueron cayendo sus hojas y toooodas las tiré !!😬😳😡 yo creó que fue el frío que no soporto, bueno aún tengo el bulbo 🤔 pero no trae ni una hojita... no sabía que podían brotar bulbos de las hojas😢😭😭

[@SucsForYou]

¡Uf! No estoy seguro de si todas las plantas de bulbos se propagarán así con las hojas, ¡así que no se sienta mal!

[@elsarivera5705]

@@SucsForYou ok !! Bueno como sea tengo resguardado el bulbo al que se le cayeron las hojas. Espero no perderlo😕 Gracias Andrea👌🏻

Thanks for the info. I have some leaves that have lots of roots but no baby plant. Is there any hope for them?

Yep! I talk about that in the previous video that this one is following up on :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/m17Qq4Vsq65lgas

Great video. Your soil looks gritty. What do you use? Thank you

Thanks! Top soil, turface, expanded shale, pumice... kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYiWmKCIptecp7M

[@marcelbernard158]

@@SucsForYou thank you. I’ve called around but can’t find turface. Amazon is too expensive.

[@SucsForYou]

@@marcelbernard158 It's really expensive to have shipped for sure. Where are you located?

[@marcelbernard158]

@@SucsForYou Northern California

[@SucsForYou]

@@marcelbernard158 Good news then lol! Your climate is much less humid than mine, and it's probably a lot easier for you to source pumice locally there. Look at what the local nurseries are using for a soil mix and ask them for drainage materials (in bulk if you necessary) and I'm sure you'll get a better deal that I would here in Houston 🙏

[@lalalove9768]

How do you know theyre not getting enough light ? Do i put seran wrap to kwep it moist after taking out water

[@SucsForYou]

They will visible stretch if not getting enough light. And I wouldn't cover with Saran wrap - they need good air flow :)

[@barbaradebnam1896]

Great video. I’d like to know more about your propagation tray and how often you water them. Also, do you water or just mist them? Thanks!

[@luni7859]

Hi! Newbie here. Does these advices apply to every kind of succulent, even the creeping ones (burro's tail, string of pearls, etc.)?

[@SucsForYou]

Sorry for the late reply! Texas has been dealing with a brutal winter storm. For the most part, yes but Pearls propagate better by cuttings (never had luck w/ the pearl itself producing new growth)
