Thanks a lot for the video. Could you please tell what is the ideal temperature for the cutting to heal and grow roots in air? My cuttings dry up, shrink and die as i leave it to develop roots. It is kept in indirect bright light with good air circulation.
@@LushGardener so it starts with choosing a good cutting which makes me understand that not all cutting are good enough for propagation. Did I get it right? Also what does growing period mean? A cutting that has still room for growth which makes me understand that a full matured cutting is not suitable?
I got my young daughter a succulent a few months ago and it was growing good. Recently, she gave it more attention and we didn't know it was overwatered. It took me a week to find out the cause and the little plant already rotted all the way up. The whole stem was hollow, so I cut it off after watching this video, while worrying that this may be the crown rot you mentioned. Now there are only the very top left with a few newer leaves. I don't see any more rotting for 4 days, but the cutting definitely has a scab. How long should I air dry? I don't see any roots yet and I am worried.
hi ....its good that it has calloused now it all about waiting ..when will it get roots is tricky because it all depends on the succulent ...4 days is a very short time for the roots to appear please wait :)
@@LushGardener Thank you so much for your quick reply and showing us how much you care. It's been 2 weeks and I am doing my best to be careful with it. The leaves are a little wrinkled and I try to put water around to naturally evaporate around the plant without watering it directly. I think it's still alive. I am really hoping for the roots to come. 💓
@@LushGardener Yes there's hope!! Yesterday morning, I saw 1 tiny piece of air root at the bottom where I did the cut, it's like a tiny hair size. This morning, there's the 2nd "hair" size air root. I am going to be patient. I want all who read my comment to know, this video and lots of patience and care are what made the difference. Our little plant is surviving!
Have you had this incident where the roots/stem are healthy looking but no matter how much one waters the Succulent, the bottom leaves remains dehydrated and not even falling off. Say it's not even recovering even after a week Could this be a case of extreme temperatures?
Can I apply cinnamon powder to the roots while repotting succulents and also on the pup ( end stem part) of laxmi kamal before pocking it into the soil
absolutely cinnamon will encourage the stem to produce more roots, while helping to prevent the fungus that causes damping-off disease. lamxi kamal { sempervivium } which city are you from sir ?
@@LushGardener Okay, I Am already placing it in indirect bright light ... How can I send you a pic of laxmi kamal to check whether it's root rot or not.
yes very good question..so when the roots rot initially they stop growing so the succulent doesn’t have any new functioning root that’s when the succulent started to get dehydrated….there will be wrinkles on the leaves … when the roots are healthy and there are wrinkles on the leaves after watering in 24-48 hours the succulents will plump up … it in damaged and rotting roots the succulent will not plump..so when you your succulents is continuously staying wrinkled it’s time to check roots
Hi, U talked about air root of succulent cutting during callus formation .Can succulents produce roots without any soil or water medium just being air dried? If yes how many days does it take to produce roots?
Hi mam..yes in the process of air rooting the succulent is just kept aside you can keep it on dry soil without planting it inside the soil …no water needed as the roots are not developed….but ensure the succulent is very well hydrated before doing stem cutting ..post stem cutting keep the cutting in indirect bright light with good air circulation… there is time frame as this process depends on the variety of succulent and how you environment is don’t do this if the temperature is very high and if the succulent is dormant … for example in my city it’s takes anywhere between 2 weeks to 3 weeks I will attach a link you can check that ua-cam.com/video/shVKhWv_KfQ/v-deo.html
Okayy My succulent roots are mostly deep brien there are few white ones so i think i should cut the brown ones My succulent stem is really small almost none

anywhere between 15 c - 30 c …ensure the cutting is well hydrated before cutting and it’s in its growing period

If I cut away all the dark color and see only pinkish stem-flesh, do I have to keep cutting or is it healthy enough?
that's good enough as long as all the dark colour is gone ...your good....:)
@@LushGardener Thank you!
@lush gardener how come we know that out succulent have root rot becuase they are in the pot so we cannot see the roots..
yes very good question..so when the roots rot initially they stop growing so the succulent doesn’t have any new functioning root that’s when the succulent started to get dehydrated….there will be wrinkles on the leaves …
when the roots are healthy and there are wrinkles on the leaves after watering in 24-48 hours the succulents will plump up … it in damaged and rotting roots the succulent will not plump..so when you your succulents is continuously staying wrinkled it’s time to check roots
will make a video on it’s soon so it will easy to understand 😊 visual presentation will be more easy to understand 🪴😊
@@LushGardenerthis happened with one of my succulents. Now I have cut the stem and kept for it to callous.

there is time frame as this process depends on the variety of succulent and how you environment is don’t do this if the temperature is very high and if the succulent is dormant …
for example in my city it’s takes anywhere between 2 weeks to 3 weeks I will attach a link you can check that
