Wow, excellent video! Your information has made me finally change my mind about "I'll just give them a little water" between waterings. I think I have finally got it, leave them alone and let them live the way they were created to live. And I will now be spending more time learning about 'each' of my succulents. Thank you.
Wonderful video! I recently got into growing succulents and have been worried not knowing when to water. Initially, I have over-cared for them. Now I am learning more, I am falling in love with how amazing they are!
I have rich colors, thick, compact/tight succulents which I do water frequently. They're outdoor, between 85-103 degrees. Partially shaded area, planted in cinder blocks. My chihuahua died so it seemed a proper memorial. Small, colorful, beautiful and compact.
I’ve had two jade plants since 2003 that I water maybe three or four times a year. One has always been sad looking but the other is huge and I love them. I recently bought a bunch of different ones to try my hand in. Thanks for the video. It’s a good reminder.
Try again, now that u know! Do it! It will make you so happy. Especially when they do well enough for u to propagate and have your own plantlets. Trust me. Best of luck from a FORMER succulent killer. 😂
Received my shipment from you today.LOVE THEM. 3 day shipping is great. So many cute and colorful plants. Had my tray ready and waiting for my postman. Had so much fun removing plants from their box and putting in their new home. Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection.
Yes, it most certainly is fascinating once you watered thoroughly 🌸you are very special virtuous lady, I really am enjoying learning about these amazing creations. Thank you dear 🙏
Jenny Sy it really depends how bad is it. But the fact that the leaf is already showing signs of problems, it might be difficult. It’s always worth trying.
This is so incredibly helpful and arrived in my 'recommended videos' just in time. I don't water my succulents very often and yesterday I realized that I really have no clue how to tell when they need to be watered. The before and after visuals you showed were perfect. Now I know that my watering habits are what they need to be and I don't need to worry about under-watering my succulents, because it'll be clear when they need more water. Thank you!
Wow I just started and have two plants inside my kitchen that gets plenty of indirect sunlight. They are doing great and I’ve been careful not to over water. I learned a lot and will subscribe. Ty!
So true, especially if grown in containers. I love all varieties of succulents too. Most all of mine are planted in the ground outside. They do often get wet when other stuff is being watered. No problems with them yet. The are in good drainage areas and seem to only use the water they need. Happy Gardening.
I am not a plant lover. I've just knew succulents... too sad I fascinated and start want to grow succulents. Hope someday will have beautiful colourful sussculents as yours. Thanks for sharing. Really helps
big thank you. I'm also a beginner in succulent propagation, just started last month. This is really helpful information to me. Love from the Philippines. Followed your tips on how to properly grow the leaf cuttings.
Thank you for your content! It helped explain to me what overwatering is, why you can't do it, and how succulents thrive without much water. Overwatering is the act of giving a plant water too frequently, not giving it too much water.
bh6sic it can be both. If you pour too much water on a small plant, planted in big container, with a soil mixture that holds a lot of moisture, the plant can get killed even in a single time it was watered. It’s giving too much water that they can hold either by too frequent or too much.
Great video. I've gotten a lot better not watering my succulents. I used to normally give them a little water every week when i would water my "normal" plants but now i normally check and see if the soil is completely dry before even thinking of watering them.
this is my favorite video. I always go back and watch it. And I always have in the back of my mind that when I know my succulents need water, I always wait until the following week to water them!! I don't go to the extremes that you do, I hover around them too much LOL
I lost a lot of succulent by over watering and sun exposure, every time I remember them i feel so sad 😞 that i lost them because i thought they need more water and sun to grow bigger and fuller 😭😭😭. Thank you again trisia for this informative video ❤️❤️❤️
It happened during summer and i just transferred them in new location and that time it was triple digits and forgot to put some shades by the time it was two late never thought that it will die of over exposure to sun . I learned my lesson to give them protection during summer and winter .
:) I have quite a few succulents in my garden here in Seattle. They do just fine in water:) And oh, the flowers they produce!! I can't think of a yard in my area that doesn't have succulents (and hostas) in it and this is a rainforest.
Year & years ago, I had a cactus in a pot, which I kept on a windowsill in my apartment. It wasn't looking so good, so I gave it a good watering, but it still didn't look good, and when I touched it, it practically exploded !!!! I had watered it too much, and the cactus was like mush !!!! Learned my lesson!!!
Wonderful informative videos. I save them all and watch frequently. My cuttings that I received from you are all doing well in their little red wagon nursery bed!
Very clear explanation with demonstrations matched with a soothing voice. Thank you 😊. One of the best I’ve seen on this topic! Proud to be your “ kababayan”! 😍
Great video. We all can appreciate the time that had to lapse for you to demonstrate your point. Succulents are my favorite and are a different ball game. They don't play by the same rules that other water loving plants like elephant ears and banana plants do, for instance. Overwatering them is by far the biggest mistake most people make. Personally, I love them. Most look rather royal and majestic, and live up to their reputation being survivalists under the harshest conditions. I even use a wall calendar and write on it when I've done what to which of my plants! Thanks for the video. 🪴
i love succulents for this reason, very cool video, and gosh what a dramatic transformation!! this was such a cool example of what these awesome plants can do. thank you for sharing!
I water my succulents daily. I live in Queensland, Australia and my succulents are out in direct sunlight daily too. I think that the water is good for them because they propagate really quickly and nicely and my succulents have never died! Am i the only one?
Wow, 2 cups of water! That's why more water than I would think necessary for that small plant. And I didn't think it was good to let a succulent sit in water. So I definitely learned something from this video.
Pam Wiggins as I mentioned, this video is for demonstration purposes. Meaning, this is not how I water my succulents. I wanted to show how resilient succulents are when it comes to drought. That they will survive and conserve when exposed to this condition but will die fast with overwatering. I place this outdoors and part of the water will evaporate. This plant was revived and was not harmed at all.
I know im asking randomly but does any of you know a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
This was so informative - thank you! You mentioned that you had a write-up about your soil mixture on your website, but when I went to your site, I was unable to find it.
Hi! I live here in California and it seldom rains. Few months ago, it did rain for few days and I did not have problems with the well rooted succulents but I have to cover the babies and those echeverias. Invest in a good well draining soil. It does help a lot.
Chopstick and Succulents hi in our place readymade succulent or cactus soil is not available can you please share the perfect recipe for. Your collection is very beautiful.
@@ChopstickandSucculents thanks for this. I’ve just done a bunch of repotting with mine. I used half perlite and half succulent/cacti potting soul, but will incorporate sand next time. :)
Great video, thank you for the valuable information! I'm a chronic over-waterer. It's hard for me to walk by a dry plant when I've got a watering can in hand. Now I'll have to slap my hand if I try to water them!
Chopstick and Succulents - Thank you for your reply! Once again I'll have to slap my hand when I'm walking around with my watering can. BTW, your setup is absolutely beautiful!
Ohhh boy. Definitely have been overwatering my jade plants. I'm home a lot so I'm constantly around them and think they need more water even if it hasn't been a whole week.
Hi Chopsticks!! 🙋 Great info... I watched your other videos & soaking up all I can. I've always been fascinated by the beauty & variety of succulents, I kept saying one day I'm getting some.....That day came on 6/27 (wed of this wk) I purchased 5 of them @ Adams in Poughkeepsie NY. I got frustrated with my other plants, they were too high maintenance for me, So I opt for the lows.... The florist assured they'll be ok even with negligence. I love the colored ones I will keep replaying your video on how to achieve color in them. I'm in an apt so they're kept on the window sill, Sun exposure is maybe 4-5 hrs daily; haven't watered them yet, Should I do so in a wk or 2? Where can I find reasonably priced fancy pots?
Maxine Gordon in order to make them colorful, they need full sun all day. Aside from that there are other reasons too like watering techniques etc. In Estate Sales, you will find unique and even expensive containers at a very friendly price. You just need to add holes to them though. Otherwise garage sales and thrift shops have a lot of them too.

Not only are you knowledgeable, but your voice is so soothing. I appreciate you. Thanks for making this video.
Succulents are such amazing beautiful beings! Very easy to look after. But your arrangements are more like a living Art sculpture. What a beauty!
Have only just found your videos but am now a huge fan. Have learnt so much from you. Both my succulents and I thank you.
My succulents are doing so much better since I started watching your videos! ❤️
Jan Landrum oh! I’m glad to hear that! You made me happy!

Good decision! It’s a great hobby. Enjoy!
One of the best videos on succulents I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing

You are welcome
This is the video I needed. I’ll keep this in mind and I hope my succulents do better and thrive.
This video came too late for me ..R.I.P. my succulent babies!😢
Nisha W 😂
Likewise💔
I just destroyed some leaves I was trying to propagate. I thought a little sprinkle wouldn't hurt...

guilty of overwatering :(
You are not the only one. I did the same mistake when I first started.
I think I did it too, it's my first plant..and its leaves became yellow... the ones from the base..
Can the yellowed leaves be revived by not watering it?

If succulents were human, they’d be deep thinking, creative, independent introverts.
Aquarians?

Is it better now? how long does it take your soil to be completely dry?
Wow! What a transformation, great demonstration, thanks.

So cool seeing them plump again so soon!!
That was a wonderful demonstration. I heave never seen the no water explanation shown so clearly. New subscriber here, thank you!
Brady Neal you are welcome.
I've had succulents for many years and I water them regularly and they are good.
Tania Cordoba probably they are in well draining soil. Maybe even gravel.
Wow thanks I have been overwatering! Appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
BAS S you are very welcome! It’s a common mistake that we do. I did the same thing when I first started with succulents.😭

Its amaizing i love ur plants they are unique
This is great if you live up north. I'm in florida and I have the intense warmth to worry about. Have fun never watering your succulents
lucky i have a bad memory and forgot to water them , so they lived .
Haha same
I can relate😁
Lol
Me too! 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
Wow!! This was so helpful. Many blessings
Thank you. Same to you.
Depends on when, during winter you don't need to water much. Most importantly planting in grit allows the water to pass through quickly
Excellent video! Very enjoyable!!
It is so tempting to water them but I will listen since you are the professional 🤣
Omg that realistic iguana pot!! 😱♥️
Where did you get it?
From Mars 👽👽👽👽🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐍
I still want it. Idk how I got back to this video lol
Part of what I love about succulents is the variety of containers you can adapt into pots. :)
Theresa, thank you for your video and your tips..
Graciela Baeza oh, you are welcome! I have more coming!
Ohhh boy. Definitely have been overwatering my jade plants. I'm home a lot so I'm constantly around them and think they need more water even if it hasn't been a whole week.
