How to fertilize Echeveria Esther
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Echeveria Esther after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Am I good to repot this Echeveria Galaxy Blue into Terra Cotta ? I got it earlier in the fall to replace the one that I accidentally killed (It was so beautiful that I was afraid to touch it but ended up killing it from lack of water.) and I don’t want this one to end up the same way as the last one I had. I planted it in a ceramic pot except the interior isn’t painted or glossed and it has drainage. I heard that soft leaf succulents need more water than others so I thought this would keep just enough moisture in the pot but not too much. It did okay for a couple of months but gradually started losing leaves and they yellowed and dried out one by one. This one I watered more sparingly since it’s ceramic, once every two weeks. Substrate is mostly Carolina red sand with some garden soil and gravel. I have currently NOT watered it in two weeks. I did the stick test and the popsicle stick came out dry with no soil stuck to it. Should I repot it into a new terra cotta pot or do plants like this go dormant at in the winter even when indoors? (Sorry for the long post 😮💨) #Succulents #planthelp #Echeveria

My echeveria prop has roots forming! …what now? This echeveria leaf (that I definitely didn’t get off of the floor in the supermarket 👀) has been sitting idly on top of some soil near my window and being misted slightly on occasion. Now it has started to grow roots! I really don’t know anything about propagating echeverias past the “stick leaf on top of soil” part so if anyone has experience and knows about what to do I would greatly appreciate the help! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #NewPlantMom #Echeveria #SucculentSquad #proplifter #help #helpneeded

Happy #nottidytuesday planty people! I'm a chronic over-sharer so I'll do my best to stay on topic (plants and holidays!). I hope everyone is as prepared as one can be, in my family and friend circle we don't put any real stock in the calendar days, the important part is togetherness with people you love. This year, Christmas falls on the 27th for us. It's a Saturday, which means my husband will be able to enjoy the eve and present explosion the next morning. How convenient! 😉 Speaking of not quite Christmas, my little Thanksgiving cacti are doing great (mostly, the first is ⅓ very unhappy and I can't figure out why), the newer is going into full bloom and the other is nicely settled in a new pot. Also pictured, the frozen remnants of a flamingo flower that I'm giving a shot at resurrection. As we say on the farm, it's not dead until it's dead and smelly. I don't have any real hope, but you can't *hurt* something dead! My syngoniums are doing absolutely swimmingly post separation and transplant. I've read that plants talk to each other through vibrations in their roots, and I always feel a little bad breaking them up. Regardless, they seem to be enjoying the extra room. The philo is just living his best life and my newfound #propagationstation is thriving too, the #echeveria leaf I proplifted from Safeway has 2 fat little roots coming in. And, this little (?)zebra plant that it turns out was supposed to be green all along.

Not sure what to do? Hi there my propagated echeveria has grown quite large, is it time to transfer it to a pot? Sorry I'm a beginner and this is my first time propagating plants so I'm not sure what to do, any suggestions would be very appreciated! #beginner #happyplants #echeveria
