Ahhhh!!!! Thank you for this! I just got a new succulent (it’s also my first plant I’ve had before) but I was worried about it not doing well! I think it has root rot but I don’t know if I should try the drying method you listed or snip the roots…. (If this plays into anything I have two cats that sometimes bite it (then get yelled at) and it’s an inside potted plant)
Hello, I’m new to succulents, bought my first hen/chick. Took it apart and didnt know what to do about massive root hen had. THKS to ur great instructions and info, we both survived 😅. Where did u buy scoop/spoon set and the pebbles
I never water the soil of rootless propagations. Because, they don't have any roots, how can that water be absorbed? In my experience, prematurely watering a propagation will lead to rot. I wait until roots have grown, then I introduce water to the soil.
Hi there, plants absorb water through their whole surface, including their roots, stems, and leaves. However, because root hairs absorb the majority of water, it is important to take good care of its roots while it matures. And because there is no root system to transfer nutrients and moisture into the stem, the cuttings must be watered. However, the last two most typical reasons for cutting failure are overwater or underwater. I hope you will be careful when caring for your succulents.
Hi there, you can try water them thrice a week to grow the roots healthier. Also, when you water your echeveria, make sure to soak the soil completely. Hope this helps
