General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
For best results with Crassula Arborescens Ripple Jade, plant one rooted liner per 4-inch container or three per gallon container. Use a well-drained soil with a pH of 6.5-7.0, EC of .25-.75, temperatures of 68-85 daytime and 58-75 nighttime, and light feed (75-125 ppm N). Maintain light intensity at 5,000-7,500 fc. Pinching may encourage branching but delay finish time. You may see aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. This plant is only prone to fungal disease if it is overwatered.
Flowering
This plant is primarily grown for its succulent foliage. It can produce star-shaped white blooms in spring, but this is rare, especially if it grows indoors.

Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base of each plant.
Height Control
This plant doesn't require PGRs.
Pests
You may see mealybugs, aphids, and spider mites.
Disease

Planting Crassula Arborescens Ripple Jade Liners
We recommend planting one rooted liner per 4-inch container or three per gallon container. Use a well-drained soilless succulent media and completely bury the ellepot in the center or evenly spaced in the container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
