I told myself if I can keep a string of bananas and a burros tail alive! πŸ˜… I most definitely am ready for cactus and succulents!πŸ’š

It was a fun afternoon getting these cuties in new pots and fresh soil. I have faith I can keep these lil guys alive! 🀣 Wish me luck yall! 🌡πŸͺ΄ #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #PlantLove #PlantHaul #GregGang #PincushionPeperomia #PincushionCactus #Lithops #DesertRosePlant #GollumJade
Congrats!! @Chariisma I’d say you definitely are ready!! Good luck! I’m starting over with my 3rd or 4th string of thing 🀞🏼 but I think I know what I did wrong!!
@DreamMachine Thank you 😊 and I am sending you lots of luck, 🀞🏽 you got this! Sometimes it takes a couple of mistakes to get it right! πŸ’š
@Chariisma thank you ☺️ it sure does! What’s your new cactus that looks like it has magical sparkles all over? Thats fun! It’s the furthest left in the second pic?
@DreamMachine It is a Miniature Desert Rose she was the only one too! So she was definitely a score! πŸ€—πŸ’š
@Chariisma Nice! So I'm guessing a Burro's Tail is hard to take care of?? I almost bought one this weekend but decided I should probably wait πŸ˜†
@Kayjay Honestly I feel like string of things are a lot more difficult then burros tails! I was scared at first too but mines been pretty great 😊 I bottom water and only water when they start looking shriveled, I keep it in a North facing window as well. They’re fun but so fragile, it’s frustrating when you barely touch and the leaves break off… not looking forward to repotting. πŸ˜πŸ˜…
@Chariisma I’ve seen 2 videos that say when watering String of β€œthings” you should submerge them in water until they stop bubbling. I did it today… and my String of Pearls and my String of Turtles both bubbled for awhile then stopped. 🀞🏻Hopefullt this works because I haven’t had much luck with these succulents in the past.
@Forbes57 I bottom water all my plants and I feel like that has been my biggest key to success really, and for the strings I really just wait it out until they start looking shriveled and thin to water. I get to scared to over water. I’d rather underwater then overwater those plants. 😊
@Chariisma good luck. Have confidence in yourself you can do it
@FitBrowallia Yes feeling very confident! 😁❀️🀞🏽
I have a burros tail, so far so good!
@Chariisma I get that!
Good morning! Fantastic collection! Wish you luck growing your babies! You’re on a great path to do so
@Chariisma

Good luck!

Most of all....have fun! πŸ€—πŸ˜
