I use Planta, but I set watering to a custom time frame and when it tells me to water, I *check* the soil. The app helps me remember when I last did something important with the plant (like repotting or chopping) and keep track of recovery after setbacks. But mostly I like the app because I'm autistic and I love arranging and systemizing information!
Excellent clear content that is delivered in an interesting and pleasant manner. Please continue to create videos which discuss the care of specific plants. You are real and charming
My name is Dale Andrews and I'm from Lake Charles, LA, a truly subtropical climate not far from the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. I think I only had to bring my jade inside for only 2 or 3 times this winter - and even then only overnight - so you get the idea. I'm so glad I found your channel! You provide clear, concise information for gardeners that I'm sure all of us appreciate. I'm frankly surprised I haven't found the channel by now and subscribed already. Keep up the good task of keeping us all informed! 😉
I have a baby jade plant, and my stepson decided to steal it and put it in his cubby where it didnt get watered for months. I got it back, and luckily it had survived. but then a few days later I found him pulling it out of the glass mason jar (with a drainage hole) and my heart stopped as i heard the roots rip and he yanked it out. Im so devastated, ive repotted it and im praying the roots will recover. Theres probably only an inch of root ball left, and its a good 20cm tall plant.
Once lighting issues are corrected, how does one prune jade to encourage fullness? I have rooted quite a few, however, my house has terrible lighting. After watching your primer on grow lights, I invested in some, so that shouldn't be a problem any longer. Now I really need to fix my leggy jade. Any tips you provide will be greatly appreciated. By the way, I think you are terrific and are, by far, my favorite plant vlogger.
Thanks so much Tina! You can prune your plant back just above one of the brown rings on the stem - this will encourage 2 new branches to grow from that point and will make it appear much fuller. You can also plant the section you trim back and then plant it back into the same pot to make it look bushier 💚
I've never repotted my Jade plant, and today I noticed that it's leaves were looking sad. The soil is still damp, so I wonder if it's needing to be put in a bigger pot. I've had it around a year.
Please talk about Jade plants and mealy bugs. After giving up on an infested Jade plant a few years ago, I bought a new plant from a reputable nursery, only to discover mealy bugs a few weeks later...help!
Ive watched your videos for each of the plants that i have from propagation. I started some in water and some in soil. Pothos, Jade, and Peace lily. I dont have any windows that directly face NSEW. I have them in my bathroom that has a skylight. this is the brightest room in the house. Is this ok? how important is it to have the nursery pot? mine are in pretty pots -they have drainage-. Im new to owning plants (that Are not aloe). Am i ok or should i change some things? I do have new growth on these plants. TIA
If you've got a skylight that provides good light then that should be absolutely fine! I personally always use either nursery pots or terracotta pots just because I sometimes find the ceramic pots don't provide enough drainage - that being said, I've seen a few recently with multiple holes that I'm sure would be absolutely fine. So long as there's no potential for water logging at the bottom of the pot I'd have thought that would be fine 💚
My Jade was in a North facing very little light window for about 5 years and when I moved it hated the extra light I was getting for like 3-4 hours opposed to 1. It's pretty I put it in rehab at my sister last year cuz I had other things going on I am getting it back tomorrow so I hope I can make her happy again 🤞🤞🤞🤞
They can take a while to adjust to new environments if they've learnt to cope in certain conditions. Gradually ease her into it and try to make the transition super gentle. Fingers crossed she bounces back!

My friend took a cutting from mine and took a worm home with him. The worm lived in the pot 5 years last I heard they both grew massive
This blesses me

That comment just made my day, thank you so much 💚

Oh wow, sounds like you've got an amazing climate for plants! Thank you so much 💚
Fantastic video! Is it ok to propagate my jade plant during the winter? Or should I wait until the growing season?
Fantastic video. Can I repot cuttings back into the same pot as the main pot? Or does it need a smaller starter pot? 🍃
I dont get a lot of natural light. Do jade plants do ok under grow lights? I think they are great snd love to get one.

@@TheJungleHaven, thank you so much for your response. I am definitely going to follow your instruction and try to bring her back to beauty!

Hi
You all are not telling everything that Plant 🙄😤🥱
Why such an aggressive and negative comment?
