Just rewatched this great video to refresh my memory. Jellybean succs have been propagating up a storm. They seem so much easier than the leafy ones. Thanks!
2020. From Wisconsin, this is exactly what I needed. So many videos were propagating half or just the top of a succulent. I was just moving one from the pot I purchased it in, it broke a leaf and I needed to know how to not make waste of it. It took me a week of hanging on to one leaf to find out just what to do. Thank you so much miss. I've just started my indoor exploration of plants and this video is a huge help. What a wonderful video, again, thank you.

Good tip about leaving the leaf on; some take it off once they see a bud with roots, but it makes sense to keep it on for it's nutrients!
Your succulents are so beautiful! This is my husband's profile somehow but I am pinning this video. Everything you used to propagate gave me ideas for a center piece I'm going to make for my dining table. It gets the perfect amount of light and I have a bigger terrarium stage in my kitchen.

Your succies are amazing. You are adorable and fun to watch. I lived in San Antonio for a brief time in the military originating from San Diego, California And the weather freaked me out and seemed extreme. I’ve been back in San Diego for a long time and just got into succulents because I bought a Graptopetalum Superbum by chance a few years ago that grew into a beast and had so much plant that I pursued propagation to use all the pieces when I replanted. Thank you for the videos :)

Any suggestions on a go to soil mixture? What kind of pebbles do you prefer?

Hi! So my Lola’s are translucent at the baby making end on the leaves I picked off to propagate. Now the plant is healthy and happy but the leaves are weird looking. Not to mention 5-7 days after picking of the main plant poof they go clear, not rotting but clear and shriveled. What do you is wrong because I learned the watering schedule of the Lola’s (2 plants actually doing the same thing) and I nearly lost one of the plants due to over watering but got to it before it went to rot. So I can’t figure it out. Oh and my von nurnberg’s.....I get roots and then they turn black! They are imby no means near sunlight it’s far away indirect sunlight so the roots can’t possibly be burning. But drying up and going skinny and black.
Thank you so much for making this! We tried to propagate from some leaves that fell off of our succulent planter because our dog got in it, and nothing seemed to be working. Now I know what we were doing wrong and in the future I'm sure we can do it! I'm just a beginner but I love succulents and hope to own a nursery some day so thank you so much!!

Sucs For You! I think we messed up watering them, or we picked leaves that were already to far gone, because we never even saw roots. And I guess a nursery is a bit of an overstatement, I just wanted to simplify it lol. I really want to just own a little shop with succulents (and other plants) and different kinds of pots for them and other decorations as well. Where I live we have a small square that has a lot of small antique stores and I'd love to do that but with plants. A coffee shop is another good idea though! I love coffee lol.

Hi, love these videos! I went to the store and they were giving me some of the leaves and such that had fallen off. They gave me a couple of the babies with no leaf and no root. They are close to the size of the one you potted with the leaf attached. What should I do? Will they die with no roots?

so removed a bunch of leaves ready to fall off near the bottom to propagate, (a graptosedum is think??) and i chopped the top off because it had a little flower. On the original root thats still in the soil of the pot will that just sprout a new flower eventually? -new to succulenting-

Yes! Do it now!! Especially if they're in plastic...You can pull them out of the soil and leave them for a week before worrying about repotting :) Either dump the dirt and wait for it to dry, or go ahead with some new dirt and reuse the old once it's dry again.
some of the roots of my propagated leaves turned black. Is this caused by too much sun as its on the window sill? Are they salvageable? The new succulent growths are still rather small but they look fine. I didn't have them initially in soil but after i noticed the black roots i put them on a soil bed in hopes they could grow new roots somehow. Any suggestions?

Try to keep the leaves dry and target the roots with a little water. Also keep out of direct sunlight after watering (wet leaves + bright light....water magnifies the heat and it will burn the leaves!). Let the soil dry out between waterings so the plant is encouraged to send out more roots. Keep an eye out for a demo of various watering methods :D
I wish you tell us your temperature at this time . And the temperature under the patio where you put the leaves to prop. Do you leave them outside all night

Sucs For You! Thank you !!
I’m going to take you up on your bet about doing it anywhere. I’m in southern Ontario and I haven’t had a single successful propagation yet. So so many leaves and none have matured. Tried both North and south facing windows to no avail, can’t to it outdoors unfortunately.
Do Topsy Turvey Succulants have their babies grow from shoots that you cut off like you did with that one today? Or are those shoots just a bloom? Thanks

Most Echeveria types don't make the long stem babies but several can and do! I've had it happen with an E. diffractens and a Graptoveria Fred Ives so far :)
Are mini flowering Kolanchoe hard to propagate ? My cuttings get kinda wimpy,and then its done...what do you think about splitting a double stalk in half from a healthy plant..Sandy...thanks

That's what I would do! Smaller pieces might require less energy to put down new roots ;)
