      I swear, I'm buying a huge turtle plant this year and I'm going to try your methods out for sure! I've gotten the hang of it over these past few months and my little baby is finally starting to grow. I'm definitely ready to take on a bigger plant now that I've become accustomed to what this plant likes. Humidity and lots of it lol. The lava rock has worked out quite well for me so I really appreciate the tips and tricks that have worked for you. Have a wonderful day! I'm so ready to take this plant on again and I'm not giving up until I figure it out and have a beautiful plant of my own. I grow so many different things but this is by far the pickiest ever lol. Thanks so much again! I love your videos and set up!

      Is it possible to use Reptibark/ orchid bark in the substrate to replace lava rock, that like you use in your substrate?

    I like how you explain what you need and what to do for a project. It’s simple and precise. I have to admit, the cadence of your voice is soothing to listen to. I’ve always wanted SOT, but hesitant to buy some because they seemed hard to take care of. I think I’ll give it a try and just make sure I have some lava rock handy, just in case. 💚

    There seems to be some confusion online about whether String of Turtles is classified as an epiphyte, it's typically considered a ground-dwelling or trailing plant rather than a true epiphyte. There are no scientific or research papers online that consider this plant a true epiphyte, only plant selling websites incorrectly labeling it as a epiphyte because of quotes like this "Most Peperomia species are epiphytes" it's not fair to generalize them all this way.. for string of turtles, in its natural habitat, it often grows as a ground cover or low-growing plant on the forest floor, rather than attaching itself to other plants or surfaces.

      Update for anyone who sees this: I tried one load of cuttings in perlite and one in orchid bark with a sprinkle of coco coir. Both containers are rooting and almost ready to go into their nursery pots to fill the orders for the store. The bark had the earliest result and the roots are more well developed, if that helps anyone.

    @meganpahl3612 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a very happy string of turtles that is in a hanging pot. I keep it in my bathroom now d/t its moisture need but I am concerned about finding the perfect light situation. I had it in a south facing window and noticed that the strings themselves began to turn red and the turtle markings on the leaves are bleaching. I want to keep the markings of course, this is what attracted me to this plant but ate they like string of pearls in the way that they require light on the crown to stay full on top? Also, what kind of light does it have in its original environment. Can I grow it in a darker area of my home so longas there is moisture? I do not want it to go bald from lacking the right light but I am loosing all my largest turtle shells. The leaves are thick and healthy but you cannot see the markings. Do you have some advice for me? Also, I have propegated by strands planted into soil as well as just the leaves so long as the sister stem that attaches to the main stem is still attached. The leaf method takes a lot longer but if this plant starts is cactus soil, moss, perlite, and charcole, it does well. I hope you can answer my questions.

      It can take a while to establish but Peperomia prostrata does put on a good few cm of growth per year, if the conditions are right.
      There are many variables that come into consideration; what kind of light is the plant getting? What kind of soil is it planted in? Is the atmosphere humid?
      Often, but not always, when a plant flowers it can be a sign of distress.

    I had a big, beautiful mother plant that I had for many, many years! I started it when I lived in Santa Fe, NM from cuttings I had gotten from a friend online. That was around 2008. It made it through five moves, 2 in Santa Fe, then from Santa Fe to southern WA State and on to northern WA State to the Puget Sound area. I am on my third place here in that area and have lived here in my current place for about four years now. The plant made it through all those moves like a champ! I have taken dozens and dozens of cuttings from it over the years to make little gift plants for friends. Now, last Fall it suddenly just started slowly dying off! The plant was thick and gorgeous! Now it looks as though it's gone through chemo or something! It's really sad! No matter what I've done to try to help it, it's just sinking.
    I have now taken some cuttings from it from what's left and have started a few little plants but nothing is growing quite like that one did back at the beginning. At least, not yet. I'm going to try this method and see what happens! What do I have to lose! Right?

      Hi Molly, that sounds incredible but such a shame it started to die off 😭. I'm certain that you've given it a great life and by taking cuttings in this method you'll be able to prolong that even further. Best of luck and let me know how you get on!

    Hi, Saw your video. Can you help me know what constitutes substrate? I dont know what is a substrate. I bought SOT and put it in perlite& cocopeat. Didn't water much either. It was lush and full when i bought. Now its sticking to the edges. Complete center portion melted off😒

      Hello! Substrate is another word for soil. SOT is notorious for melting away and its nearly always due to moisture retentive soil.
      If using cocopeat and perlite then make sure you add enough perlite to open up the soil.
      SOT prefers a well draining medium and higher humidity

      @@WorcesterTerrariums I just want to say I really like your videos. You are an excellent teacher with a good tone. And your videography is good too. I dont know what you do for a living, but I think your should try to get some sponsorships so you can make some money for this great work you are doing. Look at Garden Answer on youtube. These two have built a business that supports their family.

      Thank you for the kind words, Andrea. I am working on it, hopefully in the not too distant future I'll be making a living from this! All the best to you. Ben

    Can I use pumice instead of lava rock ?

    • @WorcesterTerrariums
      @WorcesterTerrariums  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep! I'd try and use a fine grained pumice. It may not have the same water retentive qualities but I'm not 100% on that.
