Lithops can be described as small, stemless, succulent plants from the Aizoaceae famiy, an Aizoaceae tribe that is indigenous to southern Africa. It is easy to break the roots and they can be spread in the new dirt with gentle handling. Note: If the rot has spread to the stem or leaves, it is too late to repot.

The best way to propagate these plants is by separating the pups and removing the offsets from the mother plant. The best way to go about this is to move it during the spring or summer. You should also ensure your potting mix drains well and fertilize the plant at least once every four weeks during summer using a high potassium fertilizer. Also, avoid watering the new plants for 1-2 weeks. However, for particularly hard summers, you may want to deeply water these plants once every month or two months. Cactus plants should be potted in a cactus potting mix to avoid them sitting in waterlogged soil.

Aloe vera helps to lock in moisture to your skin's deepest layers, which will keep you from getting hurt during dry seasons and harsh winds. The plant will shade most its leaves in dry seasons.

You might want to make your manure tea organic if you prefer. The entire plant could die if the sunburn is severe enough.

You'll love the variety of echeveria plants available. This is another simple method of propagating echeveria plants. Cacti are desert plants that can survive in semi-arid or arid environments.

The easiest way of propagating an echeveria (especially if it has been in your garden for some time) is by dividing it into small clumps with at least four or five miniature plants. Since the fertilizer comes concentrated, it helps offer an instant boost to weak plants and restores them to their healthy ways in record time. This is the simplest way to propagate echeveria plants. Echeveria plants do well in neglect.

Some growers have had great success using compost to feed succulents. These are small insects that feed on plants by sucking up their sap through a long tube, which can leave the plant wilting. To avoid them absorbing too much water as the roots begin to grow, it is important to water them as little as possible. You need the brightest window possible. If your pot is small, then you'll need more pebbles, pumice or smaller rocks. I just toss the leaves in the pot and let them grow naturally. Before pruning the roots, carefully remove the succulent from its pot. Repotting provides more space for growth and can be used to treat any root infection. Larger plants are more resistant to heat than smaller ones. The leaves are usually in clusters along the stem and can be flat or pointed. Sedums will eat slightly acidic water.
