Questions about succulent propagation

5 years ago
last modified: 5 years ago

Hi! I am trying to grow new succulents from some fallen leaves I found. There is a kalanchoe “panda plant” and a flat jellybean-shaped one with a red tip. I have let them callous over for two days and now they are sitting in small pots of cactus soil. I have a few questions though:

1. if the kalanchoe already had a few roots which died the day I brought the leaf home, will it possibly grow new ones? the leaf is still healthy

2. do I water the leaves before roots have started to grow? search results are giving mixed answers

3. I cut another leaf to remove a part that was turning super mushy but I cut the leaf almost in half. Is there any chance of this one still growing roots or is it a lost cause?

thanks for any responses!
