@plantvibrations I just bought my second jade plant, hopefully I’ll have more luck this time! I’m a huge fan of #captainjacks and noticed it behind you, I was just curious what you use from them! I get most of my plants from an Amish green house (very organic) so they usually come with friends and require quarantine. I’ve found their dead bug brew to be the most effective treatment against mainly spider mites. Is there anything else you would suggest I should try to keep bugs at bay or from captain jacks? It’s a constant battle because I live in the country and so keeping the bugs I can see out of the house is a challenge already. 🥵😇🙃

I have a jade that is a single stem, about 6 inches tall. It has leaves all along the trunk. When do i take them off? I also need to cut it so it will have 2 branches. I've look all over the internet! No one says when to take the leaves off a propagated stem!

I work in residential property management. I'm the guy that inspects the apartments after people move out. Anyway, one of my favorite residents passed away unexpectedly and because he passed in the unit, it was sealed by the coroner's office for a little over a month. My late resident had a jade plant in a rectangular planter on his patio is full sunlight. Mind you, this was in Southern California during the summer. When I finally got to walk the apartment after it was unsealed, I found a jade plant on his patio with its two planter buddies. I took it back to the office and began rehabilitation. Two weeks later, the planter went missing. Nobody knew where it was or what had happened, and I was devastated. The plant was, in a very real way, the last thing that I had left of this resident, as the immediate family removed everything else. I considered this man a good friend, even outside of work, and I really was deeply sad about losing the plant. About six weeks later, I found the planter! It was in a storage locker. It had no sun for six weeks, nor water, and the samn things were still alive! They're now repotted in a slightly larger planter, and they're thriving. I love the jade plant especially, it was pruned very well and the trunk is over two inches in diameter while the plant itself is no taller than one foot. I'm so happy to have inherited it.

@@charissemara Hi! Yes, that sounds like a plan! Another way to get plants is to shop for neglected plants for sale in many stores. Just yesterday I bought a whole bucket of plants at Walmart that were all half price because of employee neglect, though they actually looked pretty good to me. Most big stores do not have people hired who are very savvy in plant care, or just not enough employees to devote the time required. Back when my daughter was working at Publix (she's a teacher for over 25 years now) they rotated her into the plant section. She called me up totally frustrated because all her plants were dying. She said all my plants (about 75) looked beautiful and begged me to come to her work to give her a crash course in plant care. After that all her plants recovered to become healthy and beautiful. It would behoove all stores that sell plants to have a mini course for their employees to watch on their computers that would save them a lot of needless loss. Thanks for replying and happy growing!

Thanks for the video! I heard you’re not supposed to water it for 2 weeks after repotting?

For a thicker trunk allowing lower branches is actually a technique used in bonsai as the trunk will swell near the branches. You could then prune those branches when you're happy with the thickness. Also if you wanted to take root pruning to the next level carefully raking out all the soil and pruning roots so that they all flow outwards (not down) will help the trunk thicken a lot as they will pull the trunk out in the direction they grow. Aiming for a radial root base is the ultimate goal for bonsai. Great video tho! Jade's are such a cool plant

Thank you! I have a jade tree that I've been growing for 30 years now. It spent most of it's life co-habiting with a cactus. Two years ago I realized that it deserved a pot of it's own and I re-potted it. It was 30 inches tall and 30 inches wide at that time. It has grown significantly since getting the pot it deserves, especially the trunk, which really is tree like now. I have it in a very bright room in the east facing window. It is covered in aerial roots and looks shriveled if I don't water it frequently. Your video just gave me the motivation to re-pot again and see how the roots look. If it is root bound I'm going to prune the roots and put it back in the same pot. By the next time, (in a few years) I pot it I would love to acquire a really special cay pot for it. BTW mine has never flowered but out Royal Botanical Gardens have full size (probably six feet) jade trees which flower annually.

In an effort to save itself it produced babies. The remaining leaf clusters at the tips just fell off, some of which I pushed back into the soil by the stem. So I have about 20+ babies. Maybe the soil got depleted. Maybe not enough light at times. I did notice some of the leaves were withered. The babies' leaves are even a bit withered. I water about every 10 days or so.

Great video dude, I myself have several varieties and variegations of jade! A few tips though from my experience though. Jade being a very succulent plant susceptible to root rot, so just like when you are repotting a cactus try not to water the plant for 2 days after repotting to allow root calluses to form. Then gradually start watering again, sparingly at first. Don't let old soil go to waste! Throw it into the composter or bake moistened old soil in the oven for 30 min at 220F to sterilize it (this avoids spreading disease or pests). Then add some worm castings or a slow release fert to revitalize it. If your jade looks droopy or the leaves are flat instead of pointing upwards, gradually expose it to more direct sun. Keeping it in too dim of a spot will stop growth and you play a risky game with leaf drop or rot. Best wishes uwu

This is amazing! We live in the area where they grow wild outside. Our garden is full of them. They grow incredibly easy. They get water when we water the plants or when it rains. Baby plants grow from the slightest leaf or stem that falls in the soil next to the mother plant. I believe it’s called ‘spek boom’ (bacon tree) in Afrikaans because of the fleshy thick stem and leaves. The leaves are much much smaller on the plants standing in the elements.

Lots of great info on the jade. I have one as well I purchased from a nursery in Lake Charles, LA where I'm from. It's approximately 1' tall and about a year old. I didn't know much about them and did a "bottom water" on it where you submerge the pot it's in about 4 or 5 inches into a much larger water filled tray and let it sit for around an hour. That way, the water wicks up throughout the jade's soil. Man, was that ever a MISTAKE! The plant protested promptly by dropping a few leaves. Luckily I caught it in time to save it. I then read about the care of the jade, which typically does NOT take a lot of water to be happy. Oh well, at least now I know and know now not to make that mistake again! Happy growing yours and thanks for posting. 😊

If you put it gradually in a more sunny place, it will look even better. The downturned leaves and long spaces between them are the plant's way of trying to get more light in a place that's too dark for it's liking- something quite common that a lot of succulents will do :). It can take quite alot of sun, I even saw people growing it outside as bushes in sunny spots where the climate enables that, they bloom beautifully! Mine will probably never bloom inside but it's still flourishing after I got a strong growlight

I always heard you should let the cutting dry for a couple of days before you introduce water. They have a tendency to get too wet and you’ll have root rot. If you let the cutting dry for a couple of days, the stem will dry over a bit and then less likely to rot when you do plant it. Also, you can propagate these in water. Which I heard is pretty cool! I haven’t tried it yet.

Awesome advice, thank you! The darker green form you are holding here is actually a Crassula argentea, not ovata! The difference is the rounded end , ovata is pointed, argentea is usually green and is the original type where as ovata seems to be more variety than anything. The old jades people have had for a lot of years is argentea. Check it out, I'm no pro just an OLD jade lover!! Thank you again for the excellent channel and I'm subscribing now!!

Great video. I was given a HUGE JADE PLANT a few months ago. It is spectacular!!! The pot is approximately 12" x 12". By moving it to my house a few of the stems were broken. This plant is huge, it took up my entire front passenger seat I let it sit for a few days to acclimate. I removed the branches that were hurt. I've never had a jade plant that was this mature. I figured the branches were just lost. On a whim I put them in a mason jar with water on my kitchen window. (I used to work with plants that were hydroponic grown. So I thought it's better than just pitching them. ) From a couple stems and over the few months those I've added, my kitchen window looks like a forest. My big plant blooms and the starts have groupings of blooms!!! My question is, do I let the starts just continue in water? How in the world would I ever change the soil in the original pot (which is plastic) I fertilize everything with a liquid fertilizer. The root structure on my starts are unbelievable!! After watching your video I'm thinking about trimming them. One thing I love using on these plants is nail clippers for our pets. They're always sharp and easily handled. Thanks so much. Sorry this is so-long.

Amazing story!! Sounds like your props should be transferred asap to soil! Don’t prune those roots. They’ll want all the roots possible when acclimating to soil. The only way to change the soil is to yank it out of the pot and freshen it up!

Love my jade plant. Propagation info was great. Do you recommend a grow light even if plant is in a south facing window? Would that enhance growth and thickening of the trunk?

@plantvibrations

the grow light won't hurt! but not necessary. it will speed up growth, ie the trunk

I actually had to downsize my Jade by like a 50% smaller pot because the plant I was given was definitely put into too big of a pot… hopefully this will help strengthen the 2 main trunks because they’re very droopy and I’m having to use bamboo to keep them upright at the moment. I assume this is because it was in too big of a pot originally.

oooh the droopiness sounds like not receiving sufficient sunlight. are you able to increase the lighting, and/or put outside during the warm months

Tk u. I have trouble with Jades. My newest one I’ve had for bout a yr. So far soo good

Beautiful plant!! I wanted to start growing the Jade plant again. In the past I killed it !! Thanks for sharing!!

We moved to Economy, PA about three years ago, and we brought our Jade Plant from Mississippi. The plant looked real good but after being here for about a year we lost our Jade plant and haven't been able to find a new starter plant. One thing I learned from your video, our dirt wasn't right it was 50% sand and 50% garden soil. When we lost our plant we found out that the roots had rotted. I see now that I was water way too much to often. We never changed out the soil but I had moved the plant to a larger plant but failed to reduce the root size. I loved our Jade plant and we have a Christmas Cactus that started blooming in early December and it is still blooming, that is also a plant that I don't water but once a week and use about four tablespoons every Sunday.

I bought a big @ss jade plant at an estate sale a few months ago that was so massively root bound you couldn't even see the bottom of the pot! (The roots had grown through the drainage!) I ended up accidentally breaking those off, but I'm glad to know that wasn't a bad thing to do! It's currently in a 6" pot and about a foot tall... Gonna be repotting it within the next couple weeks and hopefully see it get even bigger! Thanks for the tips! Wish me luck!!

Hi, I propagated my jade with the leaves that had fallen off during a move. I just misted the leaves every second day and now I have another plant. Definitely a slower propagation but was pleased none the less. I have both of them outdoors facing south ( not constant sunlight tho ) and the plants are going crazy in the heat.Your info was good, I knew alot of what you were sharing. Personally I would of given the pot a good cleaning and got rid of the build up. Just like replacing with new soil. I think people need to see this or know this especially beginners. Keep up the good works with plants. Thanks
