In this video I repot my peperomia prostrata or string of turtles out of a plastic nursery pot into a shallowing hanging pot. I also go over my care tips and how I grew the plant from a small pot.

thank you, this really is going to help me repot my sot plant, that mix does look great! 😊
Love that planter ❤️
I know!! If target brings them back I will let everyone know because I want more haha 😆
It looks so happy and what a cute pot!!!
💚🌵🌱🪴
Thank you so much! If target gets them back I’ll definitely share it! 🙏🏼
So Lovely. Such great information, thank you!
You’re welcome! Thank you! ☺️
So good! I have a bunch of turtles in small prop containers. I am so going to pot them up! Loved how they look in that cute terra cotta ❤️👽❤️
Thank you! I love how it turned out 🥹 have fun potting yours up! 🙌🏼
Hi Melissa!!! The plant looks wonderful!!! Congrats. Kiss from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷😘👋
Thank you so much! ☺️
I have a String of Turtles too that is doing fine so far after getting it a few months ago. I too have a little difficulty w/Peperomias w/over watering them. I did get it to bloom though! I'm excited about that. But, I did have to buy a new grow light because I get decent light but not south facing unfortunately. So, thanks a bunch & God bless!🙏😁
omg that pot!!!
I think your cleverly decorative touch of placing the turtle on the string of turtles pot is awesome, I got an impressed chuckle out of that. More proof of your plant artistry, right up there with your monstera work mat. Seriously, nice job on the repotting I could never untangle a plant like that without collateral damage. I have three small seedlings of African Hosta that I am going to pot today (in the same pot) using a chunky soil mix like yours. I am familiar with other Hosta as as landscape plants but had never heard of an African Hosta houseplant until a few days ago. A local commercial nursery gave me the seedlings. Hopefully they will grow into a nice houseplant. You tutelage at work so thanks for that.
Thank you so much! I haven’t heard of those as an indoor houseplant either! Good luck with them and have fun planting them! 🥰🙌🏼
Love the turtle
Thank you! 🥰
Beautiful and your new mix looks beautiful! Glad to know they can be in chunkier mix! I am going to go warer my turtles now! Love the way it turned out! :) can't wait to see the replacement plant going into the other plant hanger!
Thank you!! I think it’s going to do really well and I’m exciting to watch it grow! My window is so crowded haha 😆
@@plantsbymelissa trust me you are not crowded! :)
Your turtle plant looks amazing. I myself have a "4 inch" pot really a 3 inch (sold as a 4 inch) and I have it hanging from my north east window and it seems to be doing ok. I will continue to watch and In the future change out the soil and put in a smaller pot so that it does not retain more moisture than it should. Love that Sol soil mix. I maybe purchasing some of that for some of my house plants.
Thank you!! It’s doing really well lots of new growth since the repot! The mix is really good 🙌🏼 I hope your turtles grow well for you!! 🥰
@@plantsbymelissa thank you💜
Hi! So pretty that's amazing you grew all that! I almost bought a string of Pearl's but I chickened out I do not own any string of plants because I'm scared to dapple in those....thank u so much for sharing have an amazing weekend💙💙💙
Thank you! I’m really happy with how it’s done for me 🥰 I killed a pearls before but I didn’t give them enough light and I overwatered a lot but if you stick them in a bright window they’ll love that! ☺️
@@plantsbymelissa I recently purchased a VSOP, 4 inch planter, nice and full. It was beautiful. Today I narrowed it down to a 2 inch. Wish me luck!😭
Do you have an update on this beauty since you repotted it? I love the pot! Was wondering how you water... Do you use a watering can or a squirt bottle? Does water not come out of the holes where the rope is? Do you have to be careful about not watering "on" the turtles?
Hey Melissa, love your content. I recently bought a SOT from Facebook marketplace and when I came to detangle it I found it wasn’t actually rooted into the soil but it was living. I carried on detangling the growth and laid them back onto the soil with a light sprinkling of potting mix on top. Will they be ok? Will the re-root? I really hope so. Any advice gratefully received.

Beautiful string of turtles! Just curious if you took the plug out of the drainage hole? And, when you water it, do you let it drain over the sink since it doesn’t have a tray?
I leave it plugged until I water it! I take a lot of my plants to the sink so they can drain but sometimes I just hold a container under them to let them drain and then I’ll just put the plug back ☺️
I think I under watered mine. It has turned crispy brown. I have it in a west window. I bought it in a 6" hanging basket. It does have a few green strands left. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.
I have a small start of string of pearl’s that is growing like crazy, I wish you would talk about them so I know I’m doing all well.
I linked my string of pearls video I repotted and talked about my care with those! You can check my repotting playlist too 🙏🏼
Love watching you with your plants you don’t seem to get frustrated like I do . But am working on making a bedroom for my plants maybe will help . Where is a good place for me to start getting cuttings so I can try and grow from baby’s like you did on the turtles 🪴
Thank you! Sometimes I do it depends on my mood haha. After having plants for awhile I tend to not be so hard on myself like I used to be. I would check locally! I joined a Facebook plant group before I moved and we traded and sold cuttings all the time. Sometimes nurseries will set little starter ones! ☺️

How to mix this soil.
my SOT leaves get "foggy" aka less dark and detailed. is that a light issue or water issue?
Hai, Melissa! How long does it take to grow that long?
I got mine in October of 2020 ☺️ I probably could have repotted it and propped it sooner but I felt like it didn’t grow much last winter season either!
👌👌👌😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏💚💚💚🌿🌿🌿🌿
😍😍
I bought string of turtle twice already and not doing good. Now the other one is dying again. 🙄
I’m sorry 😢
Out of all the plants I ever had the string of pearls and turtles was the hardest to care for. The key for me was to find the right lighting ☀️ 🐢
Do you still have this cutie 💚🐢
Yes! It’s doing well :) it had a set back over the summer when ants 🐜 made a colony in the pot thanks to a Hoya bloom that dropped sap everywhere in the window 😩
