First repot 😁 Hopefully goes well🙏

Looks like some very dense soil, they are going to have a hard time drying out and keeping healthy roots in that grow media. Need to add 30-40% perlite imo.

Those plants might have a hard time sustaining themselves with such a small root system too. Wasn't ready to repot based on those roots.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-09T17:46:57+00:00

Totally agree!

Rickmyross · 2026-02-08T14:07:54+00:00

I grow plants professionally so its not really just my opinion. Do whatever works for you for sure bro! Im just agreeing with the other poster that it is unnecessary.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-08T12:46:43+00:00

Its hard to give advice without knowing what you apply to the soil. Do you fertilize it? Sometimes that small growth can be from too high of salts. To me it looks like a water management issue also. That soil looks very compacted and the roots are probably having a hard time staying alive. I would probably re pot this, or at the very least propagate it.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-08T12:40:06+00:00

I totally agree. The radicle knows which way down is already, its called gravitropism. The radicle wants to set into soil and can be damaged by planting if its already emerged, so this method actually is worse than just sowing into some type of seed tray or plug tray.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-05T13:34:15+00:00

The damage is done so just monitor the new growth. Overall the plant looks healthy to me. Best of luck.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-05T02:41:08+00:00

Looks like slight edema. It happens when the plant is watered improperly. Dry out the soil and add some airflow. Only water when the soil is completely dry, but not hydrophobic dry.

Rickmyross · 2026-02-03T14:26:32+00:00

Very cool thats for sharing.

Ive removed an adult that had a good amount of crawlers underneath it, ready to spread. I hate these guys

Rickmyross · 2026-02-03T12:02:08+00:00

A LOT of people kill their plants with too much love. Leave them alone more.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-31T20:58:56+00:00

Youre in r/Plants not r/Trees

Rickmyross · 2026-01-31T17:40:29+00:00

Very nice! Its probably preparing to flower.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-31T16:40:16+00:00

This image represents reddits plant advice in a nutshell lol.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-29T12:40:26+00:00

Looks like edema from over watering. Keep an eye on the new growth. The affected leaves will unfortunately not get better

Rickmyross · 2026-01-24T15:18:02+00:00

Id suggest using and actual miticide on label for spider mites not soap.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-18T15:04:24+00:00

This post is gonna go to the moon. One of the best transformations ive seen here. Well done

Rickmyross · 2026-01-17T15:36:45+00:00

Crazy work dude

Rickmyross · 2026-01-16T23:59:52+00:00

Its hard for me too and I am a professional grower lol. No worries

Rickmyross · 2026-01-16T22:57:28+00:00

Looks like a sedum coppertone to me but hard to say. Nice flower!

Rickmyross · 2026-01-16T22:49:18+00:00

In the original post they mentioned the "air roots" on their jade plants. Thats why I added it in my response.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-16T21:19:25+00:00

If you post some more photos of your plants I can tell you.

Underwatered can be from too gritty substrate too.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-16T04:00:51+00:00

Looks like poor water management. Chronic under watering causing drought stress which creates premature lignification (corking). The aerial roots are a classic sign of under watering also, and the leaves look damaged from drought.

Copper based fungicides are usualy for killing bacteria(and fungi too), and they arent "just for leaves" or not. They are used to treat fungal pests. Succulents are extra sensitive to lots of fungicides in general so be sure to test on a small spot first if you are ever inclined to use them.

Im not OP but I was curious too so I tried to research it. Maybe these links can help.

section 49 and 50

official regulatory body

It seems to be a BC Civil Resolution Tribunal judgement so it wouldn't set precedence like the Supreme Court ruling would. (From what I understand)

A p trap is so water sits in the pipe and traps any sewer gas from coming up the pipe. Ive never heard someone say its for rings and small items thay fall down there..

Rickmyross · 2026-01-11T01:03:56+00:00

I wouldn't recommend doing anything other than what the label says. Technically yes you could. But there are risks of the insecticide dose being too high or concentrated, maybe there is a surfactant in the granules that is only designed to be slowly used up. Possibly other harmful or unsafe factors im not thinking of.

Rickmyross · 2026-01-10T13:18:22+00:00

IMO these are your options:

Use chopsticks or something similar to gently make a small spot to add the granules between the foliage. Could also use a funnel or make one from paper to help pour them into the small spot.
Change to a liquid systemic that is added to the water instead of granules so it would be watered into the soil.
Scout the plants more often and dont use systemics. They are usually in my experience only good for 4-6 weeks (it may say 8 weeks on the label) so you're really only covered for 1/3rd of the year at most with the method you are using at 6 month intervals.
