Crassula grows so easily from a single leaf: I was in Ikea a few months ago, and where a member of staff had moved a tray of small jade plants, they'd accidentally knocked off several of the leaves that were just sitting in the planter that I checking out for my monstera. So I pocketed them (handily, they were already cauterised so didn't need to worry about waiting for that) and there are now about 5 tiny jade plants growing on my windowsill.

[@ForEverKath]

How do you do that?

[@brookssnozek4153]

HEY IKEA-plant-buyer!!! Do you replant and change the soil when you get your plants there? Several of mine have died within a year as well as my friend's and I replanted one replacing the soil and it didn't die 😂 Trying to figure out the best way to treat the cheaper big plants so I can make better investments than from an expensive nursery!

[@user-kpkxgtj]

I'm brand new to houseplants and started off propagating jade from cuttings taken from a plant at work. I now have 6 small jade plants of different sizes, I'm so proud of them 😊 One of them was actually 2 small cuttings I planted close together to save space that took forever to show visible growth - turns out they decided to merge at the base before growing upwards, so I have a barely 2 inch plant that is already branched 😅 Now if only my elephant jade and umbrella trees would show me the same love. I've been growing them outside on a shaded balcony and they have been fun, easy and low maintenance to grow so far, I hope they will hold up when I take them indoors as I don't get much sun. A couple of them seem due for pruning so they can start branching, I need to get on that. I'm also pleased to learn I don't need large pots as planters are expensive where I am. Thanks for the tips.

I live in the Coachella Valley in CA, in a very arid, dry and hot desert area. My jades love morning sun and lots of plant food during growing season. They live outside and I water about once a day given how hot it is (about 100-120f during summer) and they are very happy

I loooove jades, they were the first plant variety that I had any success with! I now keep several varieties and I will definitely be gleefully collecting more! (Also, thank you for the soil aeration tip because ironically I was wondering why my front drought tolerant flowerbed's soil was so crusty and concrete-like at the front!😂 Now I know what the fix is and I will be implementing it ASAP!❤)

[@censusgary]

If you have a pot with soil that’s hard to water because it’s too dry, water it very lightly, then come back on about 20 minutes, after it’s had time to absorb the first water, and give it a good soaking the second time. The slightly-damp soil will soak up water much better than bone-dry soil does. This works for all container plants, not just for jade plants.

[@g.borgia5100]

I put the pot in a bowl of water and water from the top as well till it's all saturated

I have a Jade Plant and she's doing well...until I gave her fertilizer. Some leaves look like they have light brown scars on the leaves. They only showed up after I fed her.

[@lisengel2498]

Always dreamed of such a beauty - 🙏 - I will do my very best and see if I can succeed 💚💚💚

[@hefoxed]

So decided to do a ad-hoc survey of my local jade while on a walk after watching this earlier: - Jade that was in sidewalk tree holes tended to be shorter but bushier then those in yards -- perhaps due to pruning, perhaps due to people walking by "accidentally" pruning (the other way people get jade). Jade is yards tended to be rarer -- likely since it's a "cheap" plant since it's everywhere, it's safer to have on the sidewalk without stealing, and people reserve their (gated) yards for fancier plants. People were stealing the fancier street succulents a lot during the plant craze. - this type of jade in the sun def gets more red, not just the edges -- it'll get even more red as the summer goes by. I'm curious if there's a difference between your jade with that distinct red tips vs this common street jade -- there's quite a few different types of jade iirc (I believe I about like six different types, but most I haven't given enough room to grow big). Yours and the street jade have the same leaf shape and growth habit. - The tallest was in someone's yard and probably around 7 feet tall, just in regular looking soil, towered above me. - The most wide was a patch like 14 feet x 4 feet wide tree cut out, around 4 to 6 feet tall - Most blocks had at least two jades, there was a few lacking any jade but they also didn't have much of any plans. Would guess it's in the top 5 for outdoor street plants, usually in less maintained plantings that look like they been there for years. Jasmine, rosemary, and Aeonium are likely also in top 5, tho those aloe that made those huge flower trees could also be there. - The saddest looking jade was in a street median Probably around the height/width of your big ones but less bushy XD I'm curious what happened as I recall that area having more plant life last year, and the block over street median is bursting with succulents. So for context, outdoor temp is usually between 50s and 60s year round, dips into the 40s during night (maybe rare 30s?). Humidity tends to be high cause ocean/fog. Soil tends to be clay-y tmk but since it's a city, the soil can very a lot depending on where the soil came from. Winter can be rainy, like days/weeks of rain, but can go years of drought and most of this jade likely survived all that (iirc they were lot less plump during the drought before the rains decided to come back and cause major flooding and for a lake to reappear in the middle of CA ). tldr: if possible, try jade outside, it's really tough and can survive a lot when established, and doesn't need it be hot.

I've got a good size curly leaf jade. A couple years ago, I had it outside and we had a hail storm. Many leaves were either chipped or had a hole in it. I took off most off the damaged leaves, but left a few. After bringing it in for the winter, in one of the holes it grew a baby. Unfortunately, I think I took it off too soon. It didn't survive after sticking it in th soil below.

I'm horrible with any succulent. I always over water. Even when I try to wait for them to dry out completely.

I'll stick with my monstera collection. I don't kill those.

[@talinac6491]

Same 😂. I get salty when people say that it's soooo easy.

[@hefoxed]

I water my jade daily sometimes and they thrive. One of my jade is probably 5+ feet tall. I cannot imagine trying to regularly rotate that thing in it's terracotta, I'd throw out my back 😂 But mine are outside. Succulents are so much easier if you can put them outside and have all the beneficial insects and sun (tho not heat for me, where I am we rarely get above 70 last few years, but we also don't freeze), They really don't seem to have problems even when watering a lot when outside. Some of mine are in crappy AF soil that stays moist for a while, and been there for years fine! Jade is a common plant around here as a landscaping plant, there's random big jade plants being neglected around here. I don't think anyone actually buys it, can just get a cutting by walking around as people leave cuttings on the sidewalk (like I did last week -- those cutting were likely the size of his big plants 😅). I'm guessing they're not frost hardy so snow is probably an issue. The leaves can get even redder when given more sun, but that may just be whatever type of jade we have.

[@VR-Trooper]

The worst of all succulents for me is the "Air" plant. It's a nice idea, decorative- for awhile... then that's all.

Also where, when and how to prune .I live in cold Denmark so many people think it strange that tHIBISCUS in multiple colours has become my favourite plant . They usually last about 3 years and then get a sort of bug that makes a net of what looks like spider webs which I think at one stage attacks the roots? How can I if I notice this happening kill the bugs without killing the plant. ? They of course flower most in Spring and Summer ,but even in winter if the sun comes out, they flower again indoors of course.

@@SheffieldMadePlants already planted two in earth, fingers crossed. Just got back from my seller and got my baby jade plus 5 other new plants. Chinese evergreen, ficus microcarpa, money tree with braided roots, croton and a Njoy potho. I think I'm done shopping now. Peace and Love.

Richard, could you please do a Live?

7:30 don’t some succulents have the powder on them that top watering can ruin? Is that a species specific thing?

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Some do but water won’t ruin it. Smudging with fingers will

Can you prune a jade right after repotting?

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Yes

[@denishabroida13]

Hypothetically, let’s say you’ve had your jade plant for well over a year and it is super lanky…is it ok to clip it low?

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Yep it’ll regrow

[@laurenwolf6131]

What if the leaves are turning red fully on the back of it? Too much sun?

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Potentially yes. Maybe waiting too long to water too
