I've been trying to propagate my jade plant but failed. Everyone makes it out to be so easy! I tried just tearing off a leaf and letting it dry then planting it...dies. Cut a stem, let it dry for a couple days then planted it, that one lasted a few months but then the leaves started to die off. Is there something i'm missing?

@dan99045 From my own experience, the leaves take about two years before you see any significant growth. the stem can grow within a few months. note that when you replant something, some of the nutrients go to the roots where it tries to establish itself. this makes the plant looks dry or like its dying.

dont give up on them immediately, they just need time

Pump it up, Chris. I can't hear you. Pump it up, Chris.

Talk to my farmer buddy webcajun on YT. He grows all sorts of stuff and it is refreshing to watch him. He made his own mic and it works great. If you message him I am sure he will tell you how to do it.

Love the plants. I only have a window to grow them in, you are lucky to have an outside area. I have a little jade bonsai growing.

Sub to webcajun, he rocks.

I collect nice rocks during my travels and add them to my jade tree pots...the rocks help weigh the pot to prevent tipping over and give a nice style. great video.
