Question for #greggers successfully growing Split Rocks (or Lithops) ....

Is this mold?

My split rock Gonzo is starting to flower! 😍 He first started splitting about four months ago, so it's been at least that long since I last watered him. Very excited to see what color flower he births! 👀ðŸŒļ An important reminder: STOP WATERING your split rocks and lithops when they start splitting! It means they're growing a new set of leaves. The old set will start to break down and be reabsorbed by the plant, which provides it all the nutrients and water it needs for the duration of the process. Any extra water you give it during this time could cause the new leaves to rot. You can resume watering once the old leaves have completely shriveled up and disappeared. #SplitRock #FloweringPlants #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Pleiospilos #Mesembs #NewGrowth #GregGang #stephonicle

I see Rocky is now splitting even more to multiply, I guess. It's fun to watch. He has opened quite a bit since September 1st.

Hi, I have been using Greg's app since I got rocky the Split Rock, and it has been on point for the watering. I've been reading not to water a split rock when it has new growth. Is this correct? There are so many different versions. Or continue to water?

Here is an upate. I noticed today he is multiplying.😃

Could this be a bloom forming? 😃

Does anyone just use pummice in terracotta for their lythop? Royal Flush here with a variety on the way.

#whatthesuccwednesday One more Suc for the day. Anyone remember the gigantic Lithops that Home Depot stocked for a minute last year? Well, this year it's huge Pleiospilos nelii! The pot isn't 3.5 inches, but "a pint" haha. Here it is next to my other "large" nelii for comparison.
