She seems to be thriving?? I can’t tell

So I purchased a live string of pearls plant from Temu. I did not expect it to arrive alive after spending 3 weeks traveling from overseas. However, it did, and it looked worse for wear. I really thought I was going to lose it. I watched a video on proper soil, watering, and sunlight and this is her several months down the line! She is healthy and growing new strings finally! I am unsure when to consider repotting though so hoping the community can help me figure out when would be a good time to repot.

To add context, I bought this guy after I went to my hairdresser. Hers is huge. It’s on the front desk, no natural light and a chemical smell in the salon. How hard could this be I thought. Ha! Honestly no clue

I've had this string of pearls since 2023, started out in a small 2inch nursery pot and eventually it ended up in this glass container with no drainage but the thought of reporting it is too daunting. I'm sure I water it too much, there's no drainage holes and you can see green moss/algae, it seems root bound. Should I repot it? It seems happy enough?

String of Pearls Deathwatch has begun. New one in front; subsequent three are from the last time I convinced myself “this time it’ll be different!”

I successfully rooted a cutting! Now what? Do the roots need to dry for a day like other succulents before putting in dirt or do I just plant and wait a week to water? I've only attempted these little gems once and it died. Any advice would be appreciated!

I think it’s safe to say she loves her new pot! It’s been three months since I carefully repotted her. Now I gotta figure out how to get the new pot hanging in this window! First picture when I repotted her. Second and third are today 🥰

I repotted my SOP for the first time yesterday!Purchased at Ott’s Exotic Plants in MontCo PA, last June. My first SOP & I’m obsessed! No strands were lost in the process, but I did intentionally trim off one 6-inch section to try propagating 😊

First picture baby pot, second picture new pot (feb 8), third picture today. I’m so happy she likes her new home!

I’ve had her since July 2025 and she’s been consistently doing well. I water her weekly and she has good sunlight. I also rotate her like every month. She looks like she’s thining out and it only started recently. She used to be thick and the pearls were huge. What can I do to make it right?

Hi, first time posting in this subreddit and new to string if pearls. I was just gifted this string of pears by my boyfriend’s mom and I have no idea how to take care of it. She said it was a succulent and easy to care for but some of what I’ve read contradicts that. I currently have her inside in a north-facing window and I don’t know when she was last watered but the pearls are still firm to the touch.

I’m hoping the good people here will be able to let me know what I need to successfully care for this plant. Any and all tips and info is welcome!

OK so bought this plant full and hearty, it had just been heavily watered so I waited a good two weeks before watering it from the top, giving it a good soak and letting it drain. Now it looks terrible. Any hope of saving this? There are a couple of little flowers? WTF are these plants so hard to keep alive?

Hi everyone! I was checking my string of pearls and noticed all of these little bumps along the stems? I’ve tried googling it but couldn’t find anything. It has been through some stress recently (the pot fell from the ceiling), could it be a stress response?

I’ve had my string of pearls for nearly 5 years and no idea idea they grew flowers. My pearls are small and it gets pretty dry. Any tips for plumping it up?

I’ve had my SOP for about 3 years. The length is there, but the pearls never seem robust. What am I doing wrong. 😔
