EP 94 - What do I do after the head cuttings have rooted?
It has been 9 weeks since I gave them the chop back in episode 85. The pups on the stump have grown quite a bit, and the heads are starting to push out roots!
You have to love the growing season!
In this episode, I discuss a few things.
First I show you when you would need to replant the head. It is best to plant the head after it has started pushing out roots. An indicator for that is the colour of the new growth at the centre.
Refresher on pigments:
• How do succulents get ...
Second, I discuss my criteria for when I remove pups from the main stem.
It is growing season now in the southern hemisphere, and we're less than a month away from summer. This means my echeveria are growing faster and I can be more aggressive with my propagation. I want to make the most out of it!

Awesome music thanks to EpidemicSound
I tend to post a lot of non-video stuff on Facebook.
Hi all, something has come up and I might not make it for the scheduled premiere time, so I'm releasing this to public earlier instead. Enjoy!
Cerriscapades I hope all is well with the unexpected thing that popped up.
I saw the black, blue and white pots in the background. Nice selection and I spy ideal containers for next years succulent show competition. Take care!
Ps when you read my comments on the follow up to your 2018 show uploads......palm to face....I hung my head in shame giggling like an idiot to your reaction on my comment on the “hairy balls” succulent. Lol I will be sure to reread my comments to catch idiocy’s unless it’s too funny and worth some shame and smiles. Again take care and hope all is well.
Haha all is well. I scheduled the premiere to run during my noontime, but I had to drive around that time so I canceled it and published immediately.
I’m new to all of this propagation fun stuff. I’ve learned a lot from you. Why did you not repot the heads after they caroused over? Wouldn’t that stimulate root growth quicker? I see many others do this.
I found this video really helpful, thank you for making it! I'm now glad I didn't discard the stump of one of my big echeverias because there are 4 pups!
Nice! Always good idea to keep them unless they have already rotted away!
Your garden is awesome!! Very informative
Thanks Pam!
You are amazing! You really are one with nature. God bless you!, 🌵🌾🦋🕊
“And a tiny spider, hi!”
Ah Chuck you are just such a lovely person 😌
Chuck you have a veritable pup factory!
Oh that's the goal! Leaf cuttings just take too long. I'm hoping in the next growing season I will have even more mature plants I can add to the pup factory!
This was really helpful thank you! I just be headed my succulent and it’s already growing little pups. I guess the key is to wait for the stalk/stem to develop and then remove. What happens if you leave all the pups on a stem? I suppose over crowding and using too much energy.
Informative! TFS ❤️
Congratulations from South Brazil
Thanks for the info bro I have a mature echeveria and I am.planning to behead it and propagate but I'm a bit scared to do it cause I don't want to kill it but seeing this video it helped me.
You can do it man!
wow,.... my one stump have so many pups i lost count lol
and i used a short fred ives stump to hold up a plant that kept falling over ... that stump also has pups now hahaha
Gotta love the growing season!
My stalk is small so the pups growing on it are TINY LOL I don't know when to remove them but I guess I'll know when the time is right.
I just discovered your channel by chance😊. Are you running a nursery? What a collection! !😅 Love it! I so happened to have 2 varieties given by my neighbor who is getting tired of gardening. Hmm.....I may want to get more😅😅
Hey there! I don't have a nursery, and I think "out of control collector" is a better description haha! It would be nice if I can go that direction though, since right now I'm just doing this on the side. Who knows, things might get more serious down the road...
Beautiful beautiful!!! Do you export?
Nice video.
You tease! We can see the seed propagator but didn't get to see the results so far. I guess we'll have to watch the next video. (All in fun. Kind of.) --Jeff
I already filmed another episode back to back with this one, so I guess I'll create an update outside of the Let's Plant schedule. I'm thinking of doing another update later this week.
@@Cerriscapades Excellent.
yes very windy today 😕
Another great video Chuck!👍🏻
Who needs a reminder?
Hi always like your videos! You got a colorful small pots somwhere in your garden, they look adorable! Are they plastic? Where to buy?
Sorry I just saw this comment@@esperanzaa5556 the purple, yellow, and red ones? One of the nurseries I buy from use these colourful pots :D
Hi... To use small pots are bother the growth of these plants? By the way...there is your little helper this episode..haha...Newcastle AU
Hi Chuck, thank you for your informative and fun videos. Is it worth just to wait until near the growing season for particular succulents to do head chop? I was not sure to do anything in the dormant season. I live in Northern Canada and the winter is pretty harsh. Most of my succulents are indoors all year long.
Hi Mariana. I would definitely wait until spring.😃
How does your succulents grow so big??? I can't get them larger than my palm size..
Great video as always!! I bought a Echeveria Dicks Pink today...in windy Melbourne’s north...can I behead now or wait until the start of spring next year?
Hi Eleni. Yup now is a good time to behead it. It will regrow roots quite fast. How does it look like though, is it too leggy? Is it plump? Any reason why you want to behead it? In any case, make sure to fatten it up a bit, make sure it is very healthy, and well-watered before you behead so it bounces back quickly.
Thanks for replying Chuck! I tried to figure out a way to show you a photo but alas I couldn't. The plant is leaning to one side and the leaves start 4cm above soil. After seeing your video I wondered it needs a chop. The soil is damp as the plant was sitting in an outside area of the nursery I purchased it from today - as you know its been raining lightly one and off last 24 hrs. Am a tad scared to behead a I've not done it before.
Measuring from the top - its only 10cm wide. I remeasured the stem... its slanted...probably 5cm tall. Should I just ignore that its leaning and a little leggy?
Since it's growing season now, it's worth doing something about it because it will regrow and establish fast. I'd chop off the large rosette and reset that one.
@@Cerriscapades , thanks Chuck. I've been so scare to give it a chop - in case its considered too small a plant for a chop.
I know you say that they produce pups after you chop the heads - will the stalks ever produce another head, or branches ?
hi do i have to water the stump after beheaded? thanks
Hello Sir. Does it mean once I behead my succulent, I should not pot it directly? Should I wait until the roots come out?
If the stem is thick and fleshy, you will not want to expose it to soil right away. I only recommend not potting it right away because it will be easy to check for roots when it is ot in a pot. You will not want to water it whike it has no rootz either.
Thank you sir Chuck.
Do you have to wait for the roots before you water it? I cut off a few of my succulents and waited for it to callus. I started watering it though.
did they live?
I live in Northern California and rainy season is nearing. Not sure if you talked about succulents during this season, will the plants die?
Nora Bascos are the plants outside and out in the open or are they protected from the rain and climate? Because if rain can get to it your plants will most likely rot with constant water. Also the temperature, be sure whatever is outside can handle the cold. Soft succulents can’t usually handle under 35 degrees Fahrenheit. Sempervivums and aeoniums are hardier and winter tough. But can still drown and rot with too much water.
Chuck commented something came up, until he can comment which i would heed his opinions over mine any day of the week on succulents; comment on the details of your plants location and its surroundings so he can better answer your question.
Just for comparisons sake, I live in Phoenix AZ and even though we have ideal weather do succulents most of the year I bring all my succulents inside, to my greenhouse and in the garage for winter time because we experience freak freezes and I learned my lesson last year. Also I change my soil because for some reason my gritty mix rots my plants if it’s too cold (under 70degreesF).
How rainy is rainy season? Is there a chance to dry out in between rains? I am guessing it’s not too cold there?
Hi Nora, and thanks Erin and Natalie for helping out!
I would definitely agree with Erin and Natalie. With Erin about sharing her experience with rains and cold in her climate, and with Natalie trying to qualify what sort of weather conditions you tend to experience. I'm in Melbourne, Australia, and we may have vastly different climates so the best I can do is to give a blanket statement.
So first off, I'd like to point you to another video I made a while back about landscaping in the tropics. Also this video feels so long ago that I am feeling a lot of cringe watching it. I was not as confident on camera back then 😂
th-cam.com/video/50obfZGfGdk/w-d-xo.html
The video mainly focuses on the physical preparation of your garden bed. It discusses mechanical solutions to a mechanical problem (of dealing with excess water). You probably don't have a tropical climate but at least you have a data point from one "extreme".
Another point to consider is the temperatures. Having a distinct winter season (or at the very least, a cold season), means that dormancy in plants is more pronounced. Some plants go dormant in winter, while others go dormant in summer. Also keep in mind that the winter-dormant plants also go "pseudo-dormant" during the hot parts of summer because they have to protect themselves from intense heat. You'll notice that echeveria will curl up and protect the middle of the rosette, especially if they are not covered during summer.
When plants are dormant, they will take a lot less water than they would if they are actively growing. It is during this time that they get prone to rot since the water is not going anywhere. This is why Erin's suggestion of changing soil makes sense. In my case, I just use a gritty soil mix, combined with the techniques I mentioned in the video linked above (mounding, and doing a thick layer). That way I do not have to change my soil every year, especially since I mostly do rock gardens, rather than keeping things in pots or bowls.
On the flip side, you'll also want to watch this video. It specifically talks about how to protect from frost, but the techniques mentioned there about mounding and planting at an angle is what you'd want to consider doing.

Have fun!
@@nataliemoore7508 sometimes it rains for days, not sure about this year. Our rainy season has not been long. The one I have out is an echeveria elegans and an agave.
My head cutting's wound always turns black but iam not even putting it in the soil nor watering it.....any thoughts?... Its a type of echeveria not that sure about the name
This usually means one or more of the following things - your cutting tool might not be clean enough, or the stump is in a humid environment right after the chop. For best results, you'll want to disinfect your cutting tool, and apply antifungals on the chopped parts.
Ok thank very much!😁🌷🌵
I love succulents and cacti... Kuya are you Filipino?
Opo! 😄
Do u sell pups???
