How to fertilize Lavender Steps Succulent

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 Lavender Steps Succulent after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Anybody have an idea of what my plant is? I got it like 5 years ago in a succulent assortment! It's like 8 feet tall! It's a succulent its super tall and it loves to create new shoots

My string of dolphins fell from the ceiling! It was in a hanging pot and I was trying to get it down but it fell and the plant fell out all over my carpet. What are these white things on it? Can I save this plant, or is it completely dead? 💀 Btw, I haven’t checked the roots yet!! And there are more pictures of the plant in the comments. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #NewPlantMom #PlantCorner #HangingPlants #StringOfDolphins #stringofthings #disaster #helpneeded

growth update on my very first arrangement (I got a couple of these in a set from Walmart on sale in the very beginning of summer) I added a couple of my own plan is to it as some needed to be replaced or put in rehab, but it’s filled out so beautifully and has given me many babies ! (: 🌱✨ I’m a little bit worried about winter, and what all do for it hopefully keeping it under the lights will keep it happy. Any suggestions? It’s been outside all summer so I’m nervous about the light change! • (Echeveria blue bird, tugela cliff kalanchoe, lavender steps, string of buttons, ivory towers crassula, cobweb hens & chicks, ghost plant & graptosedum bronze) #succulentarrangements #SucculentSquad #PlantAddict #SucculentLove #NewGrowth

Water grown clippings dying after transplant? So I ordered a few clippings off of Etsy about a month or two ago, and they rooted super well, and so when they were ready (3x3 rule of course) I potted them into soil. According to Greg, both types of plant (string of dolphins and string of pearls) like well draining soil, so I added in perlite and some coir. Within like two days they were both shrivelled. I couldn’t save the string of pearls, but the string of dolphins is currently in more water and rerooting really well. Is this because I made the soil too well draining for the roots which were used to being in pure water? Any tips on how to avoid this happening again without encouraging them to rot? #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PropagationStation #roots #StringOfPearls #StringOfDolphins #help #Propagation

I got my dolphins about a month ago. I removed several strings that did not survive. I am seeing new growth at the base and some ends already!Question is how long should I wait to move it into a larger hanging pot as to not lose my current new growth? #StringOfDolphins

Hey! Could someone give me some advice on how to take care of my raindrop vine? She’s small, and I water her often, but her ends are very dry and the drops fall off often. Any advice or tips?

#bluechalksticks Leggy Blue Denali is now almost 2.5' tall 😬 can you prop the middle portion to grow a new crown when cutting leggy crowns? Also, this boy got full sun and still grew a gangster lean... 'Greg' says indirect light, everything I've read says all the direct light it can get. Also read that it loves full sun but to be kept cooler- which is why he came indoors 🤔 #propagationstation I live in N. GA so we have heat, humidity, and bright 🌞 if that helps 😊
