Favourite plant: of the plants I own, my favorite is my money tree, but I like succulents and ferns and ficus and all plants actually cx

and while I'm here, anyone know what plant this is? I bought it at a garden store and it was unlabeled. I wasn't sure how best to care for it but it's already grown like an inch since I bought it a few weeks ago, which is faster than my other plants have grown cx

Ohh, I'm glad I found this! I need a little help!

I've found mixed information on how often succulents should be watered, or even if they should be watered at all, so my question is how often should I watering my succulent?

Water them whenever the soil is dry, succulents actually thrive when goven the correct amount of water.
If you dont water them at all they can die even if many people believe that they dont need to be watered

I normally do mine about once a week. Kinda of a soak & dump/pour out the excess water. Depends on the tenp/humity decides on whether or not I water more often etc

Welcome @Thunder! I had heard of echeveria before, but never echeveria lola, such a pretty colour! I hope all of the cuttings went well. I recently took some of my succulents pups off and repotted them because I'm going to be giving them to a friend - I'm nervous they wont do well though.

your succulents are gorgeous 😍 in the first image, is that a sempervivum? they're one of my favourite succulents haha, the moonglow is soo pretty! I think my favourite pot is the yellow/green one, where you have some cuttings, I have always wanted lithops, and i'm pretty envious haha

Welcome! I'm afraid there is no set time to leave between waterings, and as thunderwolf said, it depends on the temperature or humidity of where you live. I live in a colder, and sometimes humid climate and water mine once every two weeks, and sometimes less - I actually water every plant at a different time to all of the others, so I have an app to remind me to actually water them.

My suggestion is to keep an eye on your personal plants, and see what they prefer, if you water too much or too little they may begin to wilt which will give you an idea of how often they need water! And you'll need to water them less in late autumn and winter because they need a dormancy period. :)

I have a question for everyone: do you use fertiliser your plants at all?
It wasn't until this year that I had even considered fertiliser, but I got a bit nervous about it because I don't want to kill all of my plants if I use it wrong.

I dont think you can actually kill your plants from using a bit much fertiliser, altho if you spread a full layer of it on the plants they will probs die from that lol
But i have started sprinkling some fertiliser on my plants and its a crop fertiliser so it should be doing wonders, but i dont see any difference when using fertiliser with my succulents and with flowers. I only see a difference when its applied onto the lawn
