Yeah they look alike but I pulled these babies straight from the mother plant so I know they are mother of thousands. But thank you @shack2u2

Ooh babies! Why is the leaf curled?

7w
comment
demeterstouch

Honestly I'm not completely sure @veepaisal . I think it's because they got to close to the grow light at a young age. I think it should eventually return to normal.

Had some leaves curling really bad. I figured they needed to be moved out from under the grow light when I moved the first one outside and it bounced back (bottom right photo, left plant in picture is the one that's recovering) #motherofthousands #kalanchoe #succulent #succulents #deck #deckgarden #decking #balconygarden #balcony #grow #growlight #closeup

I read that they don't like direct sunlight? So maybe I shouldn't be placing mine under direct plant light either

So far I have had it under plant light in my garage when it first came, I just ordered another plant light for my house to keep the succulents happy during ❄️.

What is the difference between mother of thousands and mother of millions?

7w
comment
demeterstouch

Honestly I have no clue @greenwitch26 I googled it just know and it appears the difference is the shape of their leaves. Also mother of thousands alternatives their leaves so each can get sun where as mother of millions doesn't. Tbh I've been mixing them up and calling them the wrong thing 😂😂 I like the sound of mother of millions better haha

greenwitch26

Wow the thousands rotate their own leaves?! That is amazing! I have some other of millions and they are doing so/so and I hope they thrive and thriiive

@veepaisal haha that's good to know I'm not the only one haha. I'd suggest giving growing lithops a try. They're fickle things but so beautiful. I've heard alot of people have trouble with them, might be a good new challenge for you!! ♥️♥️♥️

Can't find any of these succulent beauties near me. All I found were Jade plants and those prickly 🌵 which I am not fond of lol
