Fantastic video guide. No stalling, no extraneous details, no complicated intro graphics, just got right into it. Also loved the speeding up re: adding soil to the pot. Really appreciate this and I'm a new subscriber.
Been obsessed with string of dolphins since I found out they existed and finally got my hands on some. I'm so excited! Great video to get me started. Hopefully I don't end up killing mine 🙈😅
These are a beautiful plant. I have several in hanging pots and baskets. When they get too long I just snip some off the bottom and put it directly in potting mix. I started with a 2 inch cutting and now have about 10 plants of around 50cm length
Coincidentally, a few days ago I got two strings at home depot for 50% off. They were dry as a bone, but still in salvageable condition. 2 6in. pots for $10 total.😁 I'm happy, it was my first time seeing them in a big box store. They seem to me to be kinda pricey online. Btw, I always bottom water mine (I tend to worry about overwatering).
Oh no! I had something similar happen where I believe it was overwatered when I purchased it from my local nursery bc it was super wet. I only had 2 good stands but within a day they died too 😣 I bought another so I hope it works out! Did you replant your strands?
@@maree_21oh For real it sucks they go so fast with root rot. That's why now I'll dig my finger into the dirt feel the moister and try to squish close to the roots to make sure. And no it didn't make it 😭The rot spread so fast
Hi 👋🏼 Erica. Thank you for sharing all I needed to know for my adorable Dolphin’s 🤗. I’ve looked for help before, 😕. No luck. I have all the different dirt I’ll need. And now I’m going outside to repot them. 👏🏼👏🏼 I’m a big fan! Subscribed! 🌱 👌🏼
I got one for my birthday yesterday!! I have quite a few sunburnt parts :(. This is my first "pet" since my parents don't like animals, they got me a plant!! Thanks for the helpful video!!
I got one today and it's about to bloom! I can check it off my wishlist, I'm close to collecting all of the "String of" succulents. Thanks for the information.
My dolphins definitely turned into manta rays, so I chopped those back and put it closer to sunlight (I've heard that's why they do that 🤷♀️). We'll see how it goes!
mine turned into manta rays as well 😔. I’m a beginner and very nervous about taking care of them. I ordered 20 succulents from Amazon and 2 dead already 😢. I love those little dolphins so much but 2 tiny ones out of 3 dried. Hopefully it will survive.
This was an awesome video! I found a broken off vine of string of dolphins on the floor at the hardware store and they just let me take it home. Now I know I can propagate it in water much like a pothos.
Thank you for your very informative video!!! It was pleasant to listen to and I look forward to watching the rest of your videos! I have a string of bananas that’s did let her to dry and some of them dried up like you said dolphins would do. Cross my fingers I can revive it. So far it looks ok. Thank you!
I haven't seen in France yet.... They look so cute! My question is, would you ever consider putting these in semi-hydrponics? I am starting to convert all my bigger plants gradually, successfully so far. Just need the person in charge of hole drilling to keep up 😁 Thanks for your channel its always enjoyable.
I am not really a fan of semi-hydro 😅 I just suck at it lol It’s so funny you have a person in charge of hole drilling, I love that! Thank you so much!!
senecio is a such an interesting genus. there are species that doesn't look like strings of something, but tiny trees or cacti! in my search for reasonably priced chain of hearts i accidentally find many interesting things. i even found that funny looking cactus :)
Wow you really dive deep haha I think it’s called a pinecone tephrocactus, but I’m not sure if it is. The pictures online don’t have the crazy fingernails 😂
@@ErikaLodes i can't help myself, haha 😂 common names in english and russian are misleading sometimes. the one i saw is tephrocactus papyracanthus and it has crazy fingernails.
SO HELPFUL! I know I’m late to the game on this video but I’ve struggled with TWO of these plants! So frustrating, but this helps so much! Subscribing for sure. 👍👍👍
The key to any kind of succulent is well draining soil and not over watering, I water my string of dolphins, string of melon, string of lemon, string of bananas, string of pearls etc once very 2 or 3 weeks and they all thrive.
Erica just one thing that I believe that you may have left out of this video yes what I have learned from other UA-camrs who root succulents in water and then transfer to dirt. I believe you need to keep the dirt saturated for a Time until the water roots are adapted to the soil and or the succulent grows dirt roots. I don't know how long this takes but then you just taper off the water slowly and then water like you would any other succulent waiting for the soil to completely dry out
I used to really want a string of dolphins but now I’m over it xD kind of how I feel about string of pearls too. I guess I’m just not much of a succulent person. I learned something from your vid though ✌️
I absolutely love your channel!! You’re the reason I’ve gone and bought a ton of plants 😂 but I do have a question. Are these similar to String of Bananas in terms of soil and care?
Perfect timing I have my first string of dolphins sooo cute!!! Very informative video ..when propagating in water where do I put it until it roots?also good comparison to a manta ray🌝
When I watered my string of bananas when it was dry I killed it. It rotted away. I'm so afraid to water my string of dolphins. I got them from trader joes and the soil is dry
You always have greats tips a d great info on plants. I'm afraid of bottom watering my plants. I never know how long to keep them in water or how much water to put them in.
Thank you! Bottom watering does take some time, you can fill a tub & let your plant sit in the water for around half an hour depending how big the pot is. If you’re nervous about it, you can stick in a moisture meter to see how high the water has risen :-) I’m impatient, so often times I will water a plant with a saucer underneath & just let it soak up the extra. It sounds like a good video topic, so I will probably make a video on it in the future :-)
I water rooted a cutting my brother had given me and then a couple months ago planted it in soil.I saw that yours also developed small leaves but they do not look like Dolphins like on rest of plant.They are very thin and delicate.When I planted it in soil I put it in a different window and I think part of that is the problem.What do you suggest? This has a special attachment for me since its from my brother and I don't want it to die.Thank you for the info and videos
I just received my shipment today and they are extremely bone dry a lot of the dolphins are brown and crispy and the do I have to be extra extra delicate with these can I just take it out of the soil that may be propagated in some water to see if it comes back to life I have pictures but I don’t think there’s a way for me to post them here it’s my first time owning one I’d really love to see if it’s life so if you can help anyway you can thank you great video by the way thank you
I was wondering what other plants you use this soil/medium for 🤔 succulents? Hoyas? I think I have picked some of the hardest plants to grow! I have bought many clearanced plants lost some of them. Bought 2 large phalinopsis orchids $5. & $1 ! They do sometimes have a peat plug. Yes take it out and use hydrogen peroxide to clean off the fungus / mold! I highly recommend watching Emaan's Garden I think🤔 on UA-cam she is excellent with orchids so is Margaret East❣️ Wishing you the best of luck with your rescue 💞
I made it specifically for the string of Dolphins! I really enjoy mixing soils so each plant gets their own mix haha Phalaenopsis orchids are one of my favorites, those were an amazing find! I hope they thrive under your care :-) Thank you so much!!
Hi. Just came across your channel. Love your gorgeous plants. So beautiful!! Is it the same care for string of bananas? Mine are plp at the base and the so thin at the ends. The vines are about 6 inches long but the bananas are so thin. Please let me know. I'm a new subscriber. I want to a plant mom like you☺️❤️
Have you tried to propagate just the leaves? If so, what's your method? Another question...mine seem to dry out mid stem...any ideas? Suggestions? Thanks!!
I have my succulents under dirext light from my grow lamp for 9 hours but its at 4 out of 10 light brightness level. Idk what I'm doing but I hope its not too much light check closely for scarring but idk what other things to look for to indicate too much lighting
I’m watching your video because I am trying to figure out why my dolphins look like manta rays LOL and you mentioned it at the very end of your video glad to know that it somewhat normal for it to happen but Kinda would like to know how to prevent it from happening
Hi I bought a string of dolphin its currently on a soil in a nursery pot. Can I transfer it to water so it grows faster ? Or should I just leave it on the nursery pot? It’s currently winter here in New Zealand
Question, my plant is new to me and did dry out a touch, some of the dolphins are shriveled up (not near the base though). Should those be left alone? Clipped off? Great video btw!
My dolphins are dying. I want to repot in better soil. The strands I've stuck in water aren't rooting, they look like they are mushy and rotting. Please help 😥
Some of my dolphins are dry some are squishy some don’t even look like dolphins 😭 My plant is dying I think I over watered and left it in the sun too much
I killed my string of hooks, but it came back to life! I forgot to water but then I gave it a good water once I saw it all dry and I was gonna throw it and put something else but I saw life and I was like fuck yeah 😎. So always make sure you killed them
Im scared to water it, i bought one from a store and the soil had dried out a lot so i watered it and it died, i have some in water hopefully will grow a root but after i transfer it im worried about over watering it :(
Erika! Please tell me why i propagated my string of dolphins and the new growth turned flat wich i started calling them string of sting rays lol. All my propagated cuttings turned into sting rays!!???
I mentioned that at the video, but I’m not sure why it happens! I call them sting rays too 😂 it might have something to do with not getting enough light, but I’m not 100% sure if that’s the reason why. I think some of them might form into a dolphin as they age, but again I’m not completely sure. Mine get them on the newest growth sometimes too
Hi! I just purchased one of these and a few other succulents (to include a string of bananas) a few weeks ago. I noticed that my dolphin has a few strands that are dark, thin, and limp where they meet the soil. I assume it was because they were over watered before I got them but not sure. How can I save them in addition to propagating those particular strains? Some others are starting to go limp. :(
I live in Connecticut and about 2 months ago I bought a beautiful pot of dolphins. Unfortunately they came with mealybugs and nematodes. I gave it the old alcohol bath, I know a little bit about succulents. ( I'm by far not an expert but I've been able to keep my 100 plus plants alive thus far) I actually had two spray it again the other day. My question is this, the plant doesn't seem to be recovering very well. It's a very dull grayish green color. The tips of the strings where the new Dolphins emerge are very gray. Is this just from the alcohol spritzing? I did propagate a very small piece that broke off and it's absolutely gorgeous, shiny and bright green.
So I have a dolphin.. I have it hanging in my kitchen window.. its a west window but its kinda angled in direction so it doesn't get harsh west light or much light in my opinion... I have a grow light strip in the window to help it throughout day w my other window plants.. you think thats okay? Or should I move to my south window area
Hi Erika! I just got this plant and looks sooo healthy and luscious and super long! I just don’t wanna do this plant any wrong. I live in an apartment and only have an East face window + balcony. You mentioned you leave yours in an east facing porch which just happened to be very like my scenario. However; I’m wondering if the plant can withstand the high temperatures during the summer. I’m in DC and some days gets up 95-98F in the afternoon. Would the plant be ok still? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
I need some help please 🥺 I only have one strand of string of dolphins and it’s growing new leaves but they are tiny and won’t get any bigger.. any suggestions? The stem has small roots but the leaves at the tip just won’t get bigger... please help!
Perfect timing! My String of Dolphins is looking like String of Dolphin Jerky :(
Now you can save those babies! 😄 they won’t look like jerky for much longer haha
Omg me too :(

Your channel comes from the heart. That's why I love your work!
You are the sweetest, thank you so very much! 💖
Just got a free cutting from our local free plant library and this video is perfect. Sounds like a can place right next to my String of Pearls
Been obsessed with string of dolphins since I found out they existed and finally got my hands on some. I'm so excited! Great video to get me started. Hopefully I don't end up killing mine 🙈😅
I'm still looking for the String of Turtles :)
Thanks, miss your posts. You are a great teacher.

Lmao that would be so disturbing 😂
Haha. Mine is about to bloom :) I hope it's not as bad as Trailing Jade.
Hello from New Zealand, I've just received a cutting of this plant so will try propagate it in water - great informative video thank you.

Mine is growing upwards and I don’t know why but it looks healthy other than that

Nah girl get yourself some string of Dolphins 😂😂
I killed my string of hooks, but it came back to life! I forgot to water but then I gave it a good water once I saw it all dry and I was gonna throw it and put something else but I saw life and I was like fuck yeah 😎. So always make sure you killed them
Hi. Great info. How long had that been propagating in water to get roots like that before planting?
Im scared to water it, i bought one from a store and the soil had dried out a lot so i watered it and it died, i have some in water hopefully will grow a root but after i transfer it im worried about over watering it :(
How long did you wait till watering?
Can you share the soil mix? Like share links of the charcoal and the items you use? Please!:)

I live in Connecticut and about 2 months ago I bought a beautiful pot of dolphins. Unfortunately they came with mealybugs and nematodes. I gave it the old alcohol bath, I know a little bit about succulents. ( I'm by far not an expert but I've been able to keep my 100 plus plants alive thus far)
I actually had two spray it again the other day. My question is this, the plant doesn't seem to be recovering very well. It's a very dull grayish green color. The tips of the strings where the new Dolphins emerge are very gray. Is this just from the alcohol spritzing? I did propagate a very small piece that broke off and it's absolutely gorgeous, shiny and bright green.
So I have a dolphin.. I have it hanging in my kitchen window.. its a west window but its kinda angled in direction so it doesn't get harsh west light or much light in my opinion... I have a grow light strip in the window to help it throughout day w my other window plants.. you think thats okay? Or should I move to my south window area
How can I propagate using the nodes I take off, just one dolphin
Where did u get your bucked and little turquoise shovel it’s so cute ?
Hi Erika! I just got this plant and looks sooo healthy and luscious and super long! I just don’t wanna do this plant any wrong. I live in an apartment and only have an East face window + balcony. You mentioned you leave yours in an east facing porch which just happened to be very like my scenario. However; I’m wondering if the plant can withstand the high temperatures during the summer. I’m in DC and some days gets up 95-98F in the afternoon. Would the plant be ok still? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
Ya high heat is fine, I live in SoCal so it gets over the hundreds here. Just make sure to water more often when it’s hot!
with water propagation, do you still let it callous over?
Can you have this plant inside near a window or is it best outside on a verandah
When do they bloom flowers?
I bought one recently and they over watered it and it started getting root rot :( I had to propagate the entire plant
My plant looks happy but the stems of my new growth are curled and growing up! What’s with that??
Can I ask, you had those rooted cuttings in water. Did you let them callus then put them in water?
Thanks for the video. If you're doing the water method, do you not remove any of the leaves?
Ya take off the bottom ones so they don’t rot in the water 👍🏼
@@ErikaLodes thanks
How long will it take for it to get roots
Wondering the same thing
Which way do you suggest for a beginner? Water or let it callus and then soil?
What other plants do you have for your east facing porch? Thank you!
How long do you suggest the roots be, before transplanting?
I need some help please 🥺 I only have one strand of string of dolphins and it’s growing new leaves but they are tiny and won’t get any bigger.. any suggestions? The stem has small roots but the leaves at the tip just won’t get bigger... please help!
