Can you post a photo?

How long were they left to callus before potting up?

Were the cuttings completely free of any rot?

How many times did you 'mist'?

I never use any rooting hormone or similar (like Superthrive), especially jade that is so easily to root.
I am not in favour of misting, there is so much water stored in leaves and trunks of succulents, they usually root before they are totally dehydrated. There are many ppl that recommend misting, so take this as JMO please.

How warm is it where they are kept? What general location are you in?

Ok:

i live in the Arizona desert so things dry out super quickly. I let them callus over for two days and they were very callused.

They were completely rot free. I cut them down to healthy tissue, dusted some with rooting powder, some not, and put in light perlite, bark, peat mix.

I misted about two squirts of water for each, just enough to dampen the top of the mix where the stems are.

i am keeping them in my back room, which is warmest in the house. They are on a window seat that gets southern light, but they have plants above them on a wire shelf, so they aren't getting direct light.

its hard to photograph because I separated the cuttings into three separate small pots.

oh, one more thing: I did pot one group that has air roots together, and I thought misting them might be beneficial.

if you really want a photo, I can take one, just let me know.

thank you for helping me.

One light misting of soil probably won't cause problems.

You want to make sure they are not in wet mix since there are no roots to absorb any moisture, and stems could start rotting if in damp/wet mix. Sounds like a good spot for them, keep them out of strong sunlight for a while. Jade will grow aerial roots sometimes, the roots often just dry up and fall off. I just ignore them.

If they were healthy, hey could root pretty fast. Once you see any new growth it indicates that the roots are growing. Don't be tempted to 'check' by digging around, it usually just disturbs new roots that may be still fragile. Watering should start when new growth is visible.

Should you be unsure about anything as time goes on, just take a photo of plant in question and post on this thread.

Jade cuttings easily survive months out of the any potting medium. They will shrivel, be limp, grow some aerial roots, but don't die easily. Rot will kill them much faster. If rotting, dark discoloration is usually visible on the stem, starting at the soil line.

Wow, thank you so much! I will leave them be, even though I get super nervous when the soil is so dry. I'll just trust that they will be okay, and since you said they are in a good spot, I'll leave them there.

i do appreciate your help.:)
