Would succulents thrive in an office without a window? If you have similar thoughts, you should read this article. Here are some tips on how to keep succulents healthy in an office setting.

This succulent houseplant has fleshy, oval-shaped leaves and woody stems that resemble tiny tree trunks.

With a bit of care, the jade plant can grow as high as three and six feet, but it grows slowly…

…only growing two inches a year. The jade plant originated in South Africa.

Because they are a lucky plant jade plants were given as gifts as housewarming presents.

Typically only grown indoors, they can be brought home or started any time…

…either from a professional nursery or through propagation.

Here’s the interesting part…

The jade plant is usually straightforward to cultivate and is not as demanding however,

they are susceptible to too much moisture and a variety of diseases. 

Overwatering is a certain death sentence for all succulents; therefore, it is preferable to maintain the soil too dry rather than excessively moist.

Additionally, jade plants require sufficient light to reach their full potential.

However, if the appropriate conditions are satisfied, you will be presented with a magnificent succulent…

…that are easily propagated, providing you with an abundance of plants to disperse throughout the house.

Here’s the story about having Jade in his new office and his experience having it.

Let us hear Tony’s story

Numerous people claim that keeping a jade plant at the office helps improve one’s mood.

According to legend, this is because they have a relaxing impact on the psyche and increase emotions of well-being!

Numerous people report that including plants into their work place improves their ability to concentrate.

According to one study, these plants do far more than ease our breathing…

…not only are they beneficial to air quality, but there appears to be some research suggesting strong connections…

…between exposure to natural settings and improved outcomes in terms of mental health.

As mentioned, there are a few things you need to consider when growing succulents in an office.

If your succulents don’t get everything they need, they won’t grow healthily.

Here are some tips for your succulents as they flourish in your office:

Here’s the things!

You need to choose the best succulent variety to ensure its success indoors…

…as not all succulents thrive in the same environment. Not all succulents grow well outdoors…

…while some thrive indoors. It’s time to go plant shopping for jade. The “straight species” is the most frequently encountered.

…Crassula ovata, which is easily identifiable by its fleshy, oval leaves.

There are a few varieties of the plant that are also enjoyable to grow, if you can track them down.

Spoon jade plants (sometimes referred to as “Gollum Jade”), for example, with a 2- to 3-inch…

…tubular leaves that resemble fingers with spoon-shaped ends.

All jade plants sold as houseplants require the same level of care, regardless of their leaf shape…

…you can treat them similarly.

Go On

If you live in an area where jade plants may be purchased in the outdoor sector…

…within the garden center, however, pay close attention to the plant tags…

…since they may require slightly more care than those cultivated inside.

When bringing succulents to work, make certain they are suitable for indoor use.

Outdoor succulents require more light than those grown indoors.

Outdoor succulents will not grow in an office atmosphere due to the limited light supply.

Make sure to research what succulents need in the office before bringing any succulents in.

Also, you need to make sure that you have the right succulent.

 Some need direct sunlight, some need partial sunlight, some can even grow in the shade.”

You need to choose the best succulent variety to ensure its success indoors as not all succulents…

…thrive in the same environment. Not all succulents grow well outdoors while some thrive indoors.

It’s time to go plant shopping for jade. You’re more likely to encounter “straight species,”…

…Crassula ovata, which is easily identifiable by its fleshy, oval leaves. Additionally, there are several cultivars of the plant that are enjoyable to grow.

Next…

All jade plants sold as houseplants require the same level of care, regardless of their leaf shape…

…you may treat them similarly. If you live in an area where jade plants may be purchased in the outdoor sector…

…within the garden center, however, pay close attention to the plant tags…

…since they may require slightly more care than those cultivated inside.

When bringing succulents to work, make certain they are suitable for indoor use.

Outdoor succulents require more light than those grown indoors. Because the office atmosphere is typically more controlled….

…without a light source, outdoor succulents will perish. Ensure that you research the requirements for succulents in the office…

…before to bringing in any succulents. Additionally, you must ensure that you have the proper succulent.

Go on…

Additionally, fast-draining soil should be used as well as a pot with drainage holes.

Without a drainage hole, a container will injure succulents by retaining moisture and causing root rot.

By including a drainage hole in the pot and using a quick-draining soil, you may avoid overwatering the succulent plant.

Any extra water just drains out via the drainage hole.

A set up like this also provides good aeration to the plant.

This is one reason why succulents can’t be grown well in compact soil.

Succulents need to breathe that’s why they need gritty soil.

To keep succulents healthy, they require the proper irrigation technique…

…this protects them from overwatering.

As previously said, excessive water is damaging to the health of the plant.

When watering makes sure that you do not water the whole plant.

Instead, water only the soil. The best combination of methods would be to soak and dry the soil.

Ok next part…

Watering this way involves soaking the soil and letting it dry.

Do not water again until the soil dries for a few days.

I use this technique both indoors and outdoors to water succulents

However, your succulent plants will suffer from overwatering and root rot if you planted them…

..in a pot without a drainage hole. Don’t worry, as a succulent grower you know what is best for your plant…

You can use other watering techniques if you prefer as long as you don’t overwater your succulents…

…you should be okay.

As I indicated at the opening of this piece, it is critical for succulent plants to have access to light sources indoors.

When used indoors, the ideal approach is to position the succulent plant near a window to ensure it receives adequate light.

However, if you’re growing succulents in an office without windows, you’ll need an alternate source of light.

For my indoor succulents, I use grow light especially in winter. You can do the same. I don’t know however…

…if it is allowed to do so in your office.

This was my case. My succulent plant thrived well and I noticed no problems with it. What I also did was to replace it about once a month…

…with another succulent plant to have another vibrant living plant.

Maybe this helped my succulents survive in an office.

So here’s the interesting part…

Fertilize your jade plant once every six months for proper jade plant treatment.

Use a water-soluble fertilizer with a balanced ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus.

It’s important to remember to water your jade plant regularly before adding fertilizer water.

When the soil is dry, never fertilize your jade plant because the roots would be damaged.

As you can see, caring for a jade plant is very straightforward.

Your lovely jade plant could grow into a lovely jade tree with a little TLC and proper jade plant care.

However, if they are exposed to frigid temperatures, they will perish. They prefer room temperature and are particularly fond of winter…

…it should be at least 10°C. Additionally, they prefer a well-ventilated space.

The truth is that you can successfully grow succulents in an office without a window if you know what you’re doing.
