When to propogate jade

8 years ago

I have a jade that got extremely leggy and I was thinking of just making 8-10 plants from the tips of the branches. It’s early December now and I assume not a good time to do it. Should I wait til spring or should I just go ahead and not worry about it?

As long as you have the heat and light to sustain a cutting, it should be fine. It is ideal to wait until Spring.

Do you have photo? As mesembs suggested, they need good light. Otherwise, all your new plants and original plant will keep growing etiolated.
