Nae, May I take it for granted that there is a drainage hole? Good luck, I'm so glad that your did that, now please don't over water, just remember that this plant carries a lot of water in the leaves and trunk. These plants enjoy being underpotted. Norma

Norma,

Yes it does have a hole in the bottom of the pot, that is one thing I learned here always to make sure the pots have a drainage hole =)

Since its getting cold here in massachussetts, I know that I have to water less, because of the winter. Another thing that I payed close attention when reading the threads. Thank you for your response to my post.

Good job, Nae!
I can't wait to see the pic!

Indeed, wait a few days to water....until your Jade's leaves begin to soften.
Then, the next morning, water well. After a short time, the leaves will be firm
again. If you simply repeat this process, you won't have to worry about over or
under-watering. You can always go by feel.

Josh

Yayyyyy josh it was you who gave me the soil mix suggestions, thank you so much. Yes I am going to wait some days before I water it. One thing I did notice when I got home was that there were no leaves on the floor, I was so happy about that. I do apologize for not posting the picture today, but it was one of those days where your work takes over. I am going to be honest about another thing, tom cruise and cameron diaz are filming a movie at the buiklding where I work, sooo this morning as I was living my office to go some where I saw tom cruise and said hi and he said hi to me, that made my day so I was excited about it and forgot all about the picture lol. I know katie holmes is over there as well and aaron rue is part of the cast. I want to see if tomorrow I see them and take a pic of them as well, that way I will post all of the pictures that I took of the jade.

Thanks josh

Hey, they look great to me! You've got a lot of trunks on that jade! Hope it continues to do well.

How about the "tomcat" picture? LOL!

thanks socks, I hope they keep doing well too. I think I did good by repotting the jade, since all of its leaves were falling. It is growing alot of new leaves and it's getting a real nice red on the leaves from the sun exposure it gets.

Nice!!!

I too live around Boston, and I have two Jades doing well up here in this area. One I have had for over ten years..lol...It is nice to see someone else here living in my state with such great sucess...

GREAT job!

Mike

Thank you mike for your response. At least I know I'm not alone with the jades in boston lol. This is my second time trying with a jade, since the first time I was not so sucessful, I decided to give it another try and I'm happy I did. Keep up the good growing with your plants and I hope to hear in the next 10 years that they are still growing for you =)

Nae boston

Hey if you'd like I can come back and post a pic of the two of them so you can get really hopeful that you can and will do it...How's that?

Yes mike, that would be awsome. I will keep posting pics of it as soon as I see any changes. Thanks for offering the pics of your jades.

Nae boston

Ok..Look for the pics this weekend, or next week. I took some pics today..:-)
Gte ready for the first close frost tonight..:-(

Lol, yea I know what you mean it was kind of chilly the whole day today. Thankfully, these plants can stay warm in the house. The only bad thing about winter is that you don't get too many sunny days, but I think we will do fine.

Nae boston

yeah,,,I think so too....;-)
