String of Pearls
🌿 Care Instructions:
☀️ Light:
Prefers bright but indirect sunlight.
Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
A well-lit windowsill indoors is ideal.
💧 Watering:
As a succulent, it requires minimal watering.
Water only when the soil is completely dry (roughly every 10–14 days).
Overwatering can lead to root rot.
🌡️ Temperature:
Thrives in temperatures between 18–24°C (65–75°F).
Keep above 10°C (50°F); it is not frost-tolerant.
🌫️ Humidity:
Average household humidity is sufficient.
Avoid overly humid environments to prevent fungal issues.
🌱 Soil:
Needs well-draining soil, like cactus or succulent mix.
Avoid moisture-retentive soil types.
🌾 Fertilizing:
During the growing season (spring and summer), feed once a month with a diluted succulent fertilizer.
🌱 Propagation Methods:
1.Stem Cuttings (Most Common):
Cut a healthy stem (5–10 cm / 2–4 inches).
Remove a few bottom leaves.
Let it dry for 1–2 days to prevent rot.
Plant in moist succulent soil and wait for roots to form.
Rooting typically takes 2–3 weeks.
2.Water Propagation:
Place a stem cutting in water.
Keep it in a bright, indirect light spot.
Once roots develop, transplant into soil.
3.Laying on Soil:
Lay a stem directly on the soil surface.
Ensure the bead-like leaves touch the soil.
It will root from nodes and produce new growth.
