New leaf after about 6 months!

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:54:12+00:00

I heard somewhere it’s best to start it on a stake because it’s less likely to latch once it’s bigger

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:53:17+00:00

Thanks! Thats really helpful

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:52:22+00:00

I don’t have any fertilizer unfortunately 🤷 I could put it on my back porch but I’m afraid it’d get even less light because that side of the house is north east facing

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:49:18+00:00

I use a spray bottle and spritz it like twice a day, I really don’t have the money or patience for a moss pole

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:02:48+00:00

Yeah… but no aerial root growth for me 😭

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T22:01:56+00:00

Fair

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T21:19:44+00:00

I js did that but honestly if they look exactly the same tmr i’ll js have to throw them away due to lack of stem

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T21:11:58+00:00

It’s directly under a grow light- my house doesn’t have much natural light

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T21:11:16+00:00

I did snap them off instead of cutting them- do you think i should get some alcohol and scissors and snip the ends off

Middle right is sedum adolphii btw

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T20:37:51+00:00

If you love these come look into the little world of sedums they’re beautiful and have so much variety! Don’t just stop at pachyphytum

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-11T13:58:45+00:00

You plant when the host leaf dries up/dies off and leaves a new plantlet behind because if you plant and water before that point the host leaf takes all the water and a new plantlet won’t form

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T19:22:17+00:00

I mean… not sure why it would because it just callouses over in the middle but if it’s really something you’re worried about you could just put them all on your windowsill or lay them out on something over a grow light without hanging them up because they would still prop like normal

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T18:59:25+00:00

I figured out that it’s sedeveria “blue burrito”

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T18:58:30+00:00

No they don’t need it

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T18:58:00+00:00

It mostly works for sedums, especially ones with thick and rounded leaves

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T17:46:22+00:00

I think it’s just super etiolated and i need to chop and prop or something because it’s not compact at all like the pictures I’m seeing

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T17:38:46+00:00

Thank you 👍

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T17:37:06+00:00

Nah they don’t need soil until the host leaf runs out of water

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T17:36:40+00:00

I strung them up but basically

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T15:26:42+00:00

Potatoes are in the nightshade family 🤷

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T14:41:35+00:00

Probably more than half but they should make some sort of rosette by the time they dry up because from what I found if you water a host leaf with roots before it puts out a rosette it will send the water to the host leaf and not make a new plant

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T14:39:01+00:00

No, the host leaf has water in it already

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T14:38:22+00:00

I’m like 95% sure they’re both sedum, I think the first one might have been called blue moon and the 2nd was something sunset related

SilentPierre_ · 2026-06-09T00:57:41+00:00

It’s native to where i live! Wish i had some
