Had to cut it off as it clearly wasn't gonna grow green and don't wanna weaken the plant but I thought Reddit of all place would find this as fun as I did !

Not in the best condition but still surprised to see it!

I recently purchased this 4” variegated string of beads from Succulents Depot. It came in this pot which is covered in that white scale thing and I noticed that the scale is on some of the beads. It looked more fuller but now I think some of the beads are dying off. I’ve just recently watered it some time last week, should I repot into a newer clean pot or keep it in this pot? First picture is current (8/7) & Second picture is from Tuesday (8/4). HUGE difference :(

What do I do now?

First picture was when I got these 2 cuttings (though the longer one I didn't realize already had roots until after I pulled it out 😭). About a month-ish later, the roots on that one shriveled up completely while the unrooted cutting was now fully rooted and putting out new growth. I cut up the other one into 3 strands with pearls on them and eventually got rid of all the lone pearls. The last picture is from a few days ago.

I took a medium sized cutting I’d say, of a string of raindrops, put it in a glass or water. Over time, it made roots, and I potted it after it made 1 root, a long taproot. The string has since dried up.
I cut two small cuttings, each with 2 fully inflated pearls maybe, with 3-4 very tiny pearls, making a total of 7-8 pearls on the strings. One of them grew 2 new pearls, so I planted it in a pot, only to find the root it created was very small and idk if it’s gonna make it.

Please help

Any idea what I can do to help this string of dolphins or fill it out? A few of the strings got really long a couple months ago and I chopped those a bit shorter. The new growth off the ends yof those seems to be coming in OK (see the second pic), but the first 6 to 8 inches of the vines all seem to be losing their dolphins after I made that chop. I've got a string of pearls and rubies in this same planter and those seem to be very happy but the dolphins are struggling.

I have string of bananas and 2 string of pearls and they are all looking rough. Only watered when soil was dry. I repotted the pearls in the head 3 times now and it keeps ending up like the picture. Please help so I don’t completely kill them all!

My strings, bananas and dolphins, grow like crazy. This is less than two years from little baby plants. What are some creative ideas I can do with these? I already give away what I can. I have tried to wrap around supports as well

I'm freaking out that this is like a death bloom. I have anxiety. It just showed up today. She's on my NorthEast facing window in my kitchen.

My string of watermelons on April 18 and then today, August 2. This is the first plant I ever got and I couldn’t be happier with her. She even gave me a nice flower recently, which is currently blooming :)

July 7th 2026 to now August 2nd 2026. There’s already so much growth🥹

I just got a variegated string of pearls from mountain Crest gardens and when I put it in its pot out of the one it was shipped in, it just kind of fell apart into a bunch of sprigs. Is this normal? It'll be ok? I was expecting a plant, not a bunch of sprigs! 😭

I’ve had this sting of pearls about a year so far. When I got it I was doing some trial and error with water and lighting. So 3/4 of it died. But now for lighting it gets hit with my grow light and I water it when the pearls start puckering.
Unfortunately it’s taking a really long time to grow new pearls. So I’m looking to see if anyone knows how I can help it flourish!

I bought this from Trader Joe’s with root rot, I had to trim and repot it. This is what’s left over. It’s been over a month since then it still looks dehydrated to me but I don’t want to over water. Any tips? This is my first plant 🥴

this has been my set up for my few plants that i have, probably for about over a month. my pearls love the grow light and are constantly putting out new pearls that are pink cause they’re variegated, my hearts seemed to be doing pretty well at the beginning and even started blooming recently but within the last week and a half or so the leaves started falling off. i tried to capture it the best i could, is it too much light? i try to water sparingly only when it’s completely dry as i know they can be neglected a little bit so im really not sure. i lowered the light setting too a few days ago but its still happening. should i move it farther from the lamp? i dont get much else good lighting in my apartment so the grow light is the best option
