Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Quick Tip: Dont order these from other sellers, make sure your cuttings are sold and shipped from The Succulent Cult. While they were out of stock I bought 20 cuttings from Etemproof US and cuttings were tiny, dead, sick, bent stem, loose leaves all over, alot of duplicates mainly looking like grass and shipped in a tiny 4x4 box with just paper protecting them that did not help at all. Ive ordered succulents from The Succulent Cult both potted and cuttings. They are beautiful, fresh and packed with love and care. Ive had more luck with potted for making mistakes with my cuttings. I have a few suggestions for begginers like me so you wont make the same mistakes as I did and killed 3 of my cuttings. Ive read alot and see alot of videos related to succulent care and propagation but theres alot thats never mention: #1 If you are new to succulents and feel you want to propagate to multiply your plants you are better off buying more cuttings or better yet succulent in pots already rooted. #2 Wait to your succulents are big and healthy enough to start plucking its leaves for propagation because since its done from the bottom and if the stem has not calloused by the time you water the plant it will start to rot a few days after watering. #3 Leave the landscaping, gravel, sand, rocks, decoration again for when your plant is bigger and healthier. I had problems knowing when my succulents need water because I cant see the soil underneath the landscape to know when its dry etc. #4 If your cutting dont have a stem just sit it directly on top of the soil with a gentle push down. Dont pluck out leaves to have a stem because again your plant will rot after watering because its wounds have not calloused over yet. #5 Dont be too quick to pluck those dying leaves as this occurs at the bottom and again since the wound wont calous for a few days it will rot soon after watering. Just let the leaf fall on its own. If I remember anything else or learn something new I will surely update so all you newbies like me can be succesful with their new babies without harming them.
