How to propagate succulents plus lots of do’s and don’ts, including how to water, when to pot on, what to do with the momma-leaf etc. I also show you some species which easily propagate from leaves and tips for those that don’t.
Great video, concise and full of information. I have only been growing succulents for about a year. I have watched hundreds of videos and no one has ever explained why you don't put babies in an oversized pot.
I’m so glad you found it helpful! Your comment really made my day! ☺️
I've had good luck using coco coir for propagating leaves keep the cocoa coir moist and put a lid on under a grow light
Interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video. I’ve noticed that plants grow better on a smaller pot vs. a larger pot in the begging. It’s the same for baby aloes, agaves, as well! Plant On!
I think they like to feel more constricted, which better matches being in their natural environment perhaps 🤔
You are making a work of art. This is your first visit to your channel. 💓💗💖💝
Thank you so much 😀

Hi there thanks for the video I heard you say not to spritz them with water...so I have always heard to spritz them with water every 2 or 3 days so how will they get watered ? Sorry if I missed it or if someone else might have already asked but thanks again.
Water the soil, not the leaves to prevent rot. They don’t need a humid environment like an orchid and spritzing can just make them rot.
No wonder, mine kept rotting after I spritz it.
You mention not to spritz the newly set leaves. So, how do they ever get water?
Now that i propagated too many to give away.what do i do with them Lol
Thank you for the tips on this video. I'm going to try propagating some of my succulents now.
Fantastic! Let me know how you get on :-)
Thank you for these amazing tips! I'm hoping to save my coworker's succulent that was probably over watered.
I can’t believe you never told us what to do with the leaves you just placed in the tray. You said not to spritz with water. Then you said you’d come back to it and never told us what to do from there!,,
Oh no, I never realised that!
Lay the leaves on a tray of soil, which you can water every 2-3 weeks to encourage root growth. Don’t get water on the leaves as this can cause them to rot. There are no roots, so don’t worry if forget to water them as they get all their moisture and nutrients from the mother leaf. When roots start to appear, stick to watering every 2-3 weeks until the mother leaf is absorbed and/ or it has formed its own leaves and go from there. Keep leaf prop trays in indirect sunlight and avoid overheating.
I hope this helps 😊
I have the hardest time trying to propagate succulents, I tried many times, no success 😪 I try n try.
Hello from New York ❤
Hey! What’s happening when it doesn’t work? Are they rotting or just doing nothing? Maybe I can help ☺️
Very impressive! Thanks for sharing.
Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, jade trees grow as sidewalk plants, and can be as large as a good-sized bush. I could not believe this when I moved here. (I’ve also seen a poinsettia green as a specimen tree in someone’s front garden. Astounding!)
It’s amazing what they can do when they are in conditions more closely matching their original origin/ natural environment! Glad you enjoyed the video! 😊
Hi. Does succulent from leaves grow faster than germinated from seeds? Or it doesn't really matter?
From seed can take much longer and is a fiddlier process (conditions have to be just right) but can be very rewarding when it works!
Thankyou for sharing
Do you spray the dirt when propagating from leaves? If so how often?
I wait for roots to form before adding water just where the roots are every week or so. Did you come join the Club on Fb?
Lovely well spoken video with heaps of good info. Thank you :)
Thank you! I appreciate it!
다육 이쁘게 잘 키우시네요❤❤
Thank you so much ☺️ it’s a big challenge here in England!
Thanks for this great video! I didn't catch how to keep the soil moist where you're propagating? You mentioned moistening the soil before placing the leaves, but not how you keep it moist over time. And, how moist it should be kept. Thanks!
I use a spray bottle and spray them every other day or when the soil is dry
Spray them when they have grown roots. Got this tips from another channel
@@laurasigala7163 i have seen in many videos not to spray that will actually rot the leaves; its better to use syringes thats what I was taught so you only watere into the soil and the gritty mix.
Thank you😊
I did the propagazion with leaf of a succulent (echeveria). Do i have toctake the plant away fron the sun, right? How many time should i give her water?
Beutiful
Great Job! Thanks to share & God bless U
Thank you ☺️
What's that one at 2:12 called? 👍video
Do you moisten the peat?
Hi! When the leaves cuttings have no roots, there is no need to water as it can make them rot. However, I do find that watering once every few weeks can encourage them to root. I hope this helps but let me know if you have any other questions!
Yes it helps me a lot thank you so much :)
A bit late to the party as you see haha, but quick question.
i know some succs only grow from stem cuttings but can you propagate with stem cuttings on all succs?
I’m late to the party too, sorry ☺️ yes, almost all should work from a stem cutting. I’ve not come across any yet that can’t!
Wow...u have beautiful collection sister... 😍 Lots of love from INDIA ❤️
thank you 😊
@@SucculentFanClub do u have social media account dear, my succulents are dying 😭 i want to share pictures
Hello. If i dont sprintz or give water to leaves, they will still produce roots? Thank you
They should, yes! But if you live in a warm area or have them by a heater you will want to make sure you water just the soil every 2 weeks or so, so any new little leaves don’t dry out.
What is the point of callousing? Is that a required step?
When you cut a succulent or pull off a leaf, think of it as an open wound- it’s more likely to rot or let infection in from the soil (as soil is not sterile). A callous is like a scab, that will help stop the cut going bad once you put it in soil. I hope that helps :-)
No holes needed for the propagation tray
Correct because they won't really be watered properly until the rosette/ plant is about half and inch to an inch big.
Fantastic advice thank you 👍
So glad you found it useful. Thanks! 💚
Nice video ❤
Thank you so much 😊
3:50 i like the sound of that
