Don’t let the string of THANGS plant get you down, here’s some tips! Balding can be caused by the plant pulling from the top and/or lack of light hitting the top of the pot. I like to keep under a grow light or be sure that the light from a window is actually hitting the top of the pot versus just the side of the leaves. A shallow pot helps to keep watering not only getting to the top of the plant but down that the bottom of the roots as well. Soil mix used is a succulent/cactus soil by and gravel by bonsai jack gravel on Amazon. Any other questions, leave them down below and follow along for more planty care along the way.
I have one string of turtles who loves me, and one who hates me yet in the same dirt and conditions. Plants have more personality and occasional sass than Ive ever realized until growing succulents.
Can you believe it? Less than a year ago, I planted a small string of pearls cutting with three strings, each ranging from about 20-50mm, into a tiny 60mm pot. It's unbelievable how well it's thriving now in that same pot with many strings measuring up to 825mm! 😍 I'm so amazed and thrilled by its growth! 🌱 I think the Australian heat and humidity are playing a big role in this incredible transformation 😂
I’m in love with your profile! Thank You for inspiring me! I started my own journey with plants and now I have more than 30 pots!! Lots of love from Russia ♥️♥️♥️
Krystal. You’re my favorite lol. I absolutely love your videos! I’ve learned a lot about plants from you, and you’re absolutely hysterical 😂. From watching your videos… (I started to become a major plant enthusiast 😂) I now have my own mini indoor greenhouse and all my plants seem to be doing great!! ❤
I was SO tired of mine that I tossed them all into one of my reptile enclosures in a last ditch effort to save them. It worked! They are happier than ever before in my care despite being constantly trampled on by one of my geckos 😅😂
How sweet❤ she just needed a gecko companion. I gave up on all of mine. I followed all of the care instructions, with no luck. And unfortunately I don't have a gecko companion to give the plant 😆
Awe girl I just love watching your videos. I go a long time without getting to see them and then they pop back up on my page and that's all I do is go thru them and get to where I ended. Thank so much for all you do
Its been over 100f for more than 30 days in the last 45 days so my poor string of pearls is cooking. In the sunlit window- scorched. In the cooler shade of my room- wilting. Its absolutely brutal and i just want it to live through this miserable summer 😫
I have the tiniest pot of SOP i got from a free proplift at the store.. somehow he has made it this far lol!! Tons of new growth! I only water when the beads are squishy/puckered. He is right under a grow light and pretty happy there. Progress is slow but lots of tiny new pearls growing!
I love your videos so so much, they are so useful (I do have some beef 🌵🏜️🌵🌵of my own) but even if you don't have plants, it is so fun to see you share your love for plants and your ideas on how to share you knowledge but make it funny 😂😂😂😂 and honestly thank you for being this type of content creator, you don't know how great it is when you are on a bad mood and see one of your videos and laugh 😂😂😂 🌵🌵🏜️🏜️🌵🌵🌵
I told a friend today that i had house plant chores! (Repot 2 orchida and a plant of unknown origin i got off fb market place for 5 dollars!) And thought of you. 😊
God I bought one of these in a tiny 1 inch pot and they didn’t even hang over the side ($8!). They died a few weeks later and I tried SO hard to keep them alive and even propogate the ones that were left with no luck. I don’t think I’ll ever have the heart to try again lol.
I had issues out first too. I have since learned they enjoy pon and tons of light. Come to think of it, all my string-of-things are in pon or straight water (with some fluval stratum & super thrive).
For some reason, this year my string of pearls turned PURPLE and almost died. I think it was getting sunburned, but also I thought it needed a lot direct sun, so I have no idea what's happening 😅 I put it under a grow light instead, and it's doing pretty good, but it'll start going purple again occasionally.
I’ve killed so many strings of things, and finally gave up on my string of bananas, so I took it to work, put it in a north facing window and left it alone. That thing is like 10 feet long now.
Hi Krystal i have a string if pearls and a ruby necklace plants i was given a narrow tall pot wiuld they suit it and what other plants di you think wiuld suit it? Its tall but really narrow
my anger caused me to cut it back completely in the december, and i was too lazy to throw it out so it stayed in the garage for many months and it eventually started growing back so i felt like i had to keep it. I feel its purposefully pushing my buttons...
I have a shallow pot of succulents and I don’t know how much I should water it when it needs to be watered because it doesn’t have drainage holes and I don’t want root rot. Any suggestions?
It was Burros Tail succulent for me, every now and then im tempted to buy it again but after the disaster that happened with the last one I've decided that it's just better for me stay away from it
Is there a name for the tiny little plant stand you have on your shelf? I might’ve just ordered a ton of succulents yesterday after getting rejected by a coworker 🥴 and I think the gap between the shelf and my current lights is a bit too far!
My string of pearls died to spite me. My pink string of hearts is 1 inch long(I killed the rest of the plant that is all that survived) but my other string of hearts and my string of bananas are longer than I am tall. They are both about 6 feet long.

I can't propagate string of pearls for the life of me. 😤
My string of pearls is the one plant I do not drown. It seems to do better with just a little drizzle every week lol.
Tips for propagating string of things? Especially the "stringy-er" ones like hearts and spades
Hello! My string of hearts has a powdery fungus on it that I can’t seem to get rid of! Do you have any recommendations for how to treat it??
Direct sunlight or indirect bright light ?
Pablo stole my heart here. He's such an attentive learner ❤.
Thank you!!!! 🥹 he had to watch every step of the way.
I have one string of turtles who loves me, and one who hates me yet in the same dirt and conditions. Plants have more personality and occasional sass than Ive ever realized until growing succulents.
SO true!
It's so odd but they really do as they want WHEN/HOW they wanna do it!
You make me chuckle so much, BUT just as important, you teach me a LOT! Thank you. 😊
The little jig at the end made me so happy
This was my favorite “shimmy that soil to SETTLE IT” yet! Something about the seriousness of it was hilarious 🤣
Thank you so much, your videos are always very informative and fun! And I must say, I looove your dress here 😍

I have been personally victimised by my string of turtles 😭 but we're not a quitter!
Thank you! I have these vines that are so long I have to elevate them more and more. And now the tops have no light and no leaves!
Pablo wants to be part of the show ❤❤❤
You're too cute and funny haha!
I told a friend today that i had house plant chores! (Repot 2 orchida and a plant of unknown origin i got off fb market place for 5 dollars!) And thought of you. 😊
Look at you growing and helping those babies 🙌🏽 great work!
Ohhhh 😮 I could have done with seeing this last year, lack of shallow pot is possibly why they're now ex strings of things 😕
How do you not get fungus knats!! And I love your humor! ❤😅
Who's that handsome gentleman in the background?!! He's the cutest thing ever!
God I bought one of these in a tiny 1 inch pot and they didn’t even hang over the side ($8!). They died a few weeks later and I tried SO hard to keep them alive and even propogate the ones that were left with no luck. I don’t think I’ll ever have the heart to try again lol.
You are my favorite creator 😂
String of things 💃
I currently have one... Not a string, but just a little pea. One pearl. I refuse to give up!! 😩
😂😂😂You’re one of my favorite people that I don’t actually know😂😂😂
Not to be weird or anything, but I love you and your videos. Funny, adorable and informative😂❤🎉
Thank you so much!!!! Happy you enjoy them as well. I have so much filming them.
Your magical
Thank you so much 🥹🫶🏽
I absolutely cannot with string of pearls. We cannot be friends.
Me too!! I've tried repeatedly and they just don't like me.
Same😅
I had issues out first too. I have since learned they enjoy pon and tons of light. Come to think of it, all my string-of-things are in pon or straight water (with some fluval stratum & super thrive).

Omg you're so cute♡♡
Yikes. You look f'n great in that color
I have been personally victimized by these plants, THREE TIMES.
Bananas. Dolphins. Pearls. Hearts. All of them. Out to get me.
You are so funny!
I have a String of 'what the hell am I doing wrong' a string of 'why do you hate me?' and a string of 'don't know what to try next' 😢
I love you !!
That dance made me sub
Shimmy the soil to settle it 🤌
You are so pretty 🥹
Her dog looks like a toy. It's so cute ❤
Thank you! He’s such a micromanager, just making sure everything is ok.
We love you 😂❤
String of thaaangsss. Shallow not deep 🖊️ got it
Meta lol 😂 same 😮💨
I’ve killed so many strings of things, and finally gave up on my string of bananas, so I took it to work, put it in a north facing window and left it alone. That thing is like 10 feet long now.
Yessss I’ve been victimized, where do I get in on this class action suit?!
I have a ground cover succulent that my neighbor gave me. I know when to water it because it fades from vibrant green to a lighter green. 😅
can you pls show us how to propagate string of hearts
I overwatered my pearls and it was done for. I didn’t realize they were sensitive and all the pearls, um, exploded.
Hi Krystal i have a string if pearls and a ruby necklace plants i was given a narrow tall pot wiuld they suit it and what other plants di you think wiuld suit it? Its tall but really narrow
It-it'll be alright 😂
What plant 🪴 soil mix do you use for your succulents
Half cactus/succulent potting soil and half gravel.
I regret getting me string of hearts. They tangle SO EASILY AND MAKE ME SO MAD. Other than that they're fairly easy to care for :(
my anger caused me to cut it back completely in the december, and i was too lazy to throw it out so it stayed in the garage for many months and it eventually started growing back so i felt like i had to keep it. I feel its purposefully pushing my buttons...
Yeah exactly! You breathe on them they're tangled lol 😂
Love this dress - where from plesde?
Where do you get those shallow pots?!? I need those in my life!!!
💚💚💚
How do you know when to water after reporting these?
I need to know where you find terracotta pots like this because I have been looking EVERYWHERE.
Oh my goodness i never relised string of pearls was a succulent 😳
I have a shallow pot of succulents and I don’t know how much I should water it when it needs to be watered because it doesn’t have drainage holes and I don’t want root rot. Any suggestions?
Hearts, have one healthy "mother" plant but for the life of me I can't keep cuttings alive 🤬💜🇦🇺💜
It was Burros Tail succulent for me, every now and then im tempted to buy it again but after the disaster that happened with the last one I've decided that it's just better for me stay away from it
Will they grow in water?
Is there a name for the tiny little plant stand you have on your shelf? I might’ve just ordered a ton of succulents yesterday after getting rejected by a coworker 🥴 and I think the gap between the shelf and my current lights is a bit too far!
My string of pearls died to spite me. My pink string of hearts is 1 inch long(I killed the rest of the plant that is all that survived) but my other string of hearts and my string of bananas are longer than I am tall. They are both about 6 feet long.
