Rotting Roots Should Be Removed 

Your Jade plant’s roots can become destructive..

..including the stem..

..if there is rotting in them..

You should prune back that plant’s roots..

..with sterile pruning shears..

..as soon as you notice the problem.

What amount should you trim?

When you cut the root..

..the inside should be entirely white..

If it is not..

..you will need to cut it longer..

..until the middle is entirely white.

You can now cut the Jade plant again..

..and only the healthy roots will remain..

This will hopefully encourage new root growth.

..and get the plant to bounce back.

..after removing root rot areas..

This can be accomplished by wiping the blades with rubbing alcohol..

..or by holding them close to a flame for 30 seconds..

..without the need to mix separate substances.

You need to stop watering the plant for a few days..

When you do so..

..only do so when it looks like it is getting a little thirstier..

..or when the roots feel dry..

Don’t overdo it..

If your home has a dry environment..

..only water your Jade plant once every few weeks..

..when the soil becomes completely dry..

The Correct Way To Pot Jade Plants

Once you get your Jade plant started right..

..you will only have to maintain it..

..and not spend so much time reviving..

..and recovering it..

Setting it up correctly from the beginning is key..

Your Jade plant’s soil and pot can impact..

..how much water it has to handle..

Poor drainage in the pot..

..or a problem with waterlogging in the soil..

..will result in you forcing it to overwater..

Ensure that the pot you use..

..has drainage holes large enough..

..for the soil not to clog them..

.and add some perlite to the soil mix for improved drainage.

The Drip Tray Excess Water

Whenever you water your Jade plant’s pot..

..you might notice that water drains out of it..

..and accumulates in the drip tray..

This indicates that your soil is draining well..

..and that the holes in the pot aren’t clogged..

That’s good news!

Nevertheless..

..once you water your jade plants..

..remove excess water immediately..

..before it sits in the saucer for too long..

If it does..

..root rot may result..

“If you have a saucer under the pot, make sure after a short time (half hour or so) to empty the water out.  This allows water to be absorbed from the bottom—especially important if the soil is really dry.  If you have a pot within a more decorative pot—the latter without a drainage hole—make sure the outer pot doesn’t fill with water. “

Dr. Leonard Perry, Horticulture Professor, University of Vermont
