I have multiple huge jade plants. The #1 thing that has made mine grow rapidly and get huge is putting them outside after last frost and keeping them outside in FULL SUN until the first frost every year. Ease them into the sun. They love it and grow like crazy. My one plant, in a 5 gallon pot weighs over 90 pounds with dry soil. Lol, it is a beast

Ive had my jade for about a year now. My SIL bought me a little pot with 4 trunks growing. We bought two pots and some cactus soil and split it in half lol. Its kinda cool having it connecting us. I cut them back a lot at first. In the name of a nice looking tree i took each down to two sets of leaves. It certainly did reward me, the trunk is noticeable thicker and the jades already have a really nice start towards the shape i want.

According to RHS botany for gardeners in chapter about pruning it is advised to cut branches at an angle (cut part facing up)so when/if they choose to keep growing from same branch the previous stub will make it grow upwards.

Can you talk about soil and pot size? Do they like moving to bigger pots? Or like being in a tighter pot?

@EverythingPlants Жыл бұрын

Hello Amy, I like to keep mine in a pot that is just slightly larger than the plant itself. If you plant it in too large of a pot then you run the risk of the soil not drying out fast enough. Jade, plans typically have a fairly shallow root system and take quite a long time to become root bound. I like to keep mine in the same size pot and I often do root pruning to achieve that. Now if the plans gets too large and has the possibility of tipping over and etc then I will put it into something larger. Now if you have the space and you need to upsize a pot then go ahead and do so. Does this help at all?
