How to fertilize Jelly Bean Plant
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 Jelly Bean Plant after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

JellyBean is Back! Today I watered her again and I added only the water she needed instead of what you'd put in a pot that size. She's starting to grow leaves in the leggy areas and the leaf propagation is working! Happy gardening everyone💚🌱 #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #succulentlove #jellybeanplant

Hey everybody! I was told succulents can't grow back leaves in the same spot once they are dropped. If that is the case, does anyone know if these pink line/string things are going to be new leaves?

SOS-Is my plant Ok? My plant is dropping wrinkled, clear leafs non-stop lately and it's very leggy now. While the little sprouts are growing, my bigger ones aren't producing any new leafs! Anyone knows if my baby is ok #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #sos #Jellybean #plantaddict

#jellybeanplant My lil lad 🤣"Hamilton" has grown some He's lost some of the pink tinge he had when I first got him I thought he might be a tricky plant to keep but seems to be ok I've repotted him out his nursery pot a while ago but maybe terracotta would be a better home for him #succulentlove💚
