Graptopetalum Ellen

1/3/19 Watered today. Watering this guy weekly it feels like. It’s probably root bound. Starting to mark when I water them to keep track better. Gonna repot into a bigger pot when the others arrive.

My poor G Ellen also did not have a great summer. It’s been under my grow light for a week or two and that’s where it’s going to stay. I’m about to change out the soil and topdress it nicely today or tomorrow. It’s getting a little pink back, I can’t wait for the whole thing to be pink again. #succulent

I think winter is best time from growing succulents. My graptoveria is growing fast I can observe it but those Echeveria isn't growing at all.

@jyotu Graptos are winter loving and Echeverias are summer loving. If it is cool where you are, your echeverias are dormant right now.

I think my echeverias is trying to feel our climate and graptoveria is having fun in our climate 😁

Gosh, I have never seen Terracotta pots so small here!

@Yollymac I bought them as 2 inch pots but I think they are a little smaller than that. If I could find even smaller I would die

😍

@KelsiBriana I could have sworn they were labeled 2 in on the shelf, and like 1.8 or something like that on the actual tag that was on them. I think I paid less than 30 cents for them.

Ellen looking a lot better. @Addict you had suggested that the spots could have been bruising from wind. We don’t have sand or loose dirt here really though. After some consideration I realized that my husband has been cutting the grass near them. He never cuts too close to them, but I have been moving them just in case whenever he cuts the grass because of what you said, and I think that’s what was bruising them. Thanks!!!

That wasn't me but thank you @ohhyouknow :p

@addict lmaooo you are right. @crosma03 thanks you wonderful human

Pretty much a tornado outside. Just walked out to my Christmas cactus on the ground. Plants ripped out of their pots with the pots untouched. Crazy. I am loving the freckles but am starting to get concerned. Is it a disease? Can’t be overwatered, it is just now starting to grow roots and I haven’t watered it yet! My opalina has them as well. @Yollymac ???

Can I please see the Opalina?

Are the spots even all around? If they are only from one direction maybe it's tiny bruises from large sand in the wind?

@crosma03 it is all the way around. Noticeably worse on one side though. I do pick this guy up often to look at it more closely though so perhaps it got turned. @Yollymac I uploaded a picture of the opalina and tagged you in it. Maybe one of my other succulents is affected too but I think it is sunburned on that one. 🤔

Looking weird! 😍 #succulentsunday #succulent #graptopetalum-Ellen #ellen #pink-succulent

I think so too! Does it look like it may be growing a new head to you?

New leaves for sure. Doesn't seems new head. Also when you are replying to post then you should add @ username so that the other person gets a notification
