Main Reasons Succulent Cuttings Won't Grow Roots
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2024
- Many succulents are super easy to propagate from cuttings but sometimes, for a number of reasons, the roots will simply refuse to grow.
If your succulent plant is refusing to send roots, it is likely one of 6 things are causing it.
The main cause of cuttings not rooting are dormancy, poor light, poor potting mix, not enough water, disease or slow growing varieties.
Hope this video will help in identifying the cause.

I have learned more within a month of binge watching this wonderful lady than in 5 years of books, trial and error. She, her information and content are wonderful!!! I love that she also has the patience to explain so much with generous detail and examples.
Thank you, good info. You have a lovely nursery...enjoyed the plants in the background !! Good day !!❤😊🌿
Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
I’m the one to take cutting 😂😂 In winter. It take roots but slow than spring. My garden have a pocket to give sunlight about 5hr n protecting from wind. Next time I will follow on your clip. Thank you…Newcastle AU
Learning so much!! Thank you!!!
That's awesome- thank you so much! I'm so glad the video was helpful ☺💚
Great information thank you
Thank you 🙂💚
Should we water the leaves without roots and pups that kept for propogation?
Personally, i wait until the leaves for propagation have pups and, ideally, roots before i start watering. Imo, water could potentially rot leaves of some cultivars. Hope this helps 🙂
My only guess as to why some are charted to grow in the winter is that the papers are taking their dormancy cycles from their native habitat, which is likely different than your growing conditions.
Say a plant native to the tropical Costa Rica will grow the most during the wet season of the summer, but a plant native to dry South Africa will grow when it's not oppressively hot? Put them in the same growing conditions and they will likely end up having the same dormancy cycle.
Either that or the researchers didn't account for the summer/winter flip on the equator and just listed by month, then results misinterpreted. This is 100% a guess, I'm in no way an expert or saying you're wrong! I never follow those charts for the same reason you do!
I'd say you're correct as it definitely makes sense. They really don't like to grow when it's way too hot which it is over the summer months in their native environment. I guess what confused me was people using those charts as a guide in other parts of the world. I had someone comment that i'm giving incorrect info and to look at the charts which is how i was first made aware of them..
Very good explanation😊🌿
I mean, I have my plants in a unheated room at around 5 - 10 degrees during winter (middle-europe). For some reason, some of them they still grow, but really slow. For example the haworthias. But I simply have no idea why. They dont get any additional light and our days are only 6 hours long at winter-minimum. My nursery complained that their plants dont grow during that time. MAYBE there was still some fertilizer left that kept them growing, but I fertilize VERY sparely. Like once a month at 1/10 of the recommended dose... I took leaf-cuttings from my echeveria PVN in the middle of last winter, and they actually rooted, but only half a year later. Usually that does not work as you said yourself.
So yeah, I dont understand the behaviour. Even after 15 years of growing them, some things still remain a mystery to me.
DISCLAIMER: The above comment is not to contradict the video, I agree with SGT almost 100%. Listen to her folks. She knows her stuff.
Yes- i agree with that, mine also grow a little, some even pop out a pup over winter, but the growing charts suggests that winter is their main growing season and summer dormant which is exactly the opposite as mine grow like craaaazy in summer 😄 If i propagate some will grow tiny roots, but a lot just don't do anything until spring or the cuttings die. Ahhh PVN- don't get me started on that plant, haha. It certainly does funny stuff.
@@johannalvarsson9299 you're too kind, thank you 🙂 I love this kind of feedback as mine are not the only valid experiences and it's interesting to see how succulents grow on a different continent :)
@@SucculentGrowingTips Thank you. I cannot overstate how important PVN is here for growers. IF germans buy a succulent other than sempervivim or sedum, aka frosthardy stuff, it`s PVN. Hardware-stores will rather buy 100 PVN than a mixture of varieties... It`s weird.
@@johannalvarsson9299 wow, that is weird, though i think PVN was created by a German grower, so that may have something to do with it😀 It also won many awards and is truly a gorgeous plant 💜
