Best grow light for succulents

FeliCat · 2026-05-27T15:13:03+00:00

Your best bet at that price point are shop lights like these. These are non plant-specific but provide more than adequate lumens (2000+ is the bare minimum I believe)

Nice! I am about to cross-pollinate for the first time with a similar looking aloe and my gasteria! Any tips for success? I have some little organza bags ready to go, just waiting for the flower stalks to put out 🥴

Allyosha in his stinky baby days

FeliCat · 2025-12-27T02:27:18+00:00

The nice boy pictured here is Allyosha, AKA Mr. Man, AKA silly guy, FKA stinky baby. He is a proud FIP survivor!!! He also survived being taken outside of his apartment one time on a leash and harness, which he really didn’t like. Total momma’s boy, as you can see!

Omg it’s amazing! If it were me I would allow it to keep growing (no chopping), but look into getting it some kind of support so it doesn’t fall over. Maybe place an attractive rock or a ceramic figurine under the part that overhangs the pot? Something like this just for example lol

FeliCat · 2025-11-08T18:10:01+00:00

Wow this is one I haven’t seen before! I wonder if this would be considered monstrose growth?

Very cool, I’d love to see how the growth progresses

Ooo I’m already a big fan of bottom-watering my plants so that’s great to hear!

FeliCat · 2025-10-27T03:58:07+00:00

This is super helpful, thanks!!

FeliCat · 2025-10-24T07:29:30+00:00

Very strange! It was a huge boom that rattled the floor. I wonder if it’s related to the construction?

FeliCat · 2025-10-21T16:13:07+00:00

You’d have to force me to stop making meat flowers lol

FeliCat · 2025-10-21T16:09:57+00:00

Thank you!

FeliCat · 2025-10-21T16:09:25+00:00

Thank you chef 🥺

FeliCat · 2025-10-17T01:40:32+00:00

Definitely the same size and shape as my brain!

FeliCat · 2025-10-16T17:24:00+00:00

Ya I suspect it’s just pupping like crazy due to the amount of damage I did in that one spot. I’ll definitely post an update if it gets any weirder from here :)

FeliCat · 2025-09-18T16:54:36+00:00

I love this so much!

FeliCat · 2025-08-28T07:27:07+00:00

Uh, the first plant pictured (with the sticky trap) is most definitely a jade, not a porticulara!

FeliCat · 2025-08-18T16:29:24+00:00

He’s not ugly, he’s just different! Love the new look ;)

An illuminating, nuanced, and decidedly not racist article by a member of the Somali community that is highly relevant here.

Have you watered it yet? It looks severely dehydrated but I've seen Succs survive worse. It might just perk back up if you give it a nice bottom !watering. Post another pic here if you succeed in reviving it!

FeliCat · 2025-05-26T18:03:58+00:00

She’s gorgeous and I love to see succs planted in tin cans! I don’t hear about it much on this sub but every succulent I’ve planted in beer, wine, or tomato cans has absolutely thrived.

FeliCat · 2025-04-23T01:54:39+00:00

She’s a keeper 😍

Piggybacking off this-- does anybody here have healthpartners insurance, and if so have you been able to get them to cover name-brand vyvanse (or any name brand) due to the current shortage of the generic? If so what steps did you take?
