@VipTozzia32 Five days sounds perfect, and waiting a week to water is totally safe….especially with jade. They like to be a lil dry and dramatic before they decide to root….You’re giving her exactly what she needs, plant EMT style!
@VipTozzia32 hey! For jade cuttings, patience is queen after potting, give it 3–5 days before watering. Gotta let that cut callus up like it’s healing from a breakup….. If you water too soon, you risk rot instead of roots. So let her settle, then give her a light sip when the soil’s bone dry. Rooting vibes only
@JungleDreamer thank you for the advice! I waited 5 days after cutting to plant them. I found a crushed clearanced jade and thought “I can save her”. I was thinking wait a week to water, do you think that’s too long?
