True that!
This is one of the best String of Pearls care videos I have found!
For propagation, I cut a bunch of the growing tips off, about 3-4" pieces, cut the bottom couple pearls off and start them in a shot glass of water, they'll start to grow roots after a week or so. I'll wait a few weeks and plant those. I plant them back in the same pot to thicken it up...Then I cut some more tips and start another batch.
You're the only person who addressed two of my burning questions about String of Pearls: why my pearls were turning dark (while still very plump) and whether the stickiness was normal (without any sign of pests). Thank you!

@@Amanda-fo2bc To some extent,. but gradual acclimation matters too. Move any succulent into direct sun suddenly and it can burn. Instead, gradually move it into brighter light over about 2 weeks.

I have a string of pearls that I bought online about six months ago and it doesn’t seem to have any aerial roots it’s just healthy long strands so I’m definitely going to try to prune and then maybe do the spiral propagating or re-planting like you showed. Thanks again I’m excited to have found a channel that shares information like this. Keep it up! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️🤓🤓🤓

Aw thanks for your kind words! And it baffles me too. I have running theory that people can be great at growing most types of succulents OR great at growing String of Pearls, but rarely both. I'm in the first group 😅 Annie
Super helpful on the watering, I didn't know they needed a good soak and drain. Also going to have to repot into a pot with drainage holes. I thought terracotta was enough. I'm hoping to have a beautiful string of pearls someday 🥲
@annieschreck7938

Thank you and I'm glad it was helpful! If you're used to succulents and a careful waterer, you could certainly make it work in terracotta without a drainage hole, but the hole makes it even more low-fuss. Good luck!
What’s a good organic store bought soil...best informative videos!
Mine is doing great. I leave it outdoors, hang it around in filtered sun usually but winter under the eave of my covered patio; temps have dipped to the mid-30s with no sign of damage. I spare the water during the cold with all my succulents however. I tucked a couple cuttings into sconce planters on semi-protected walls outdoors, with mixed succs, and they've done nicely.
