My young gollum jade died a while ago. Even though I had it in proper soil mix, ceramic pot and didn't overwater it, it still did succumb to root rot, which consumed the water-carrying core of the plant; this caused the entire plant to stop retaining water, which probably exasperated the over-watering issue as I couldn't quite understand why leaves remained soft and wrinkly despite taking care of it. After a while it stopped growing and all the leaves began to drop, you could see the brown rot coming out at the tips where the leaves connected. Luckily, I saved the healthy leaves, re-potted them and now I have a bunch of healthy, young gollum jade plantlets growing. Lessons have been learned!

Haven’t seen any other plant enthusiasts with a jade plant this beautiful. I did purchase a variegated one, it’s still very small.

I never fancied having a Gollum jade until I saw your gorgeous plant! Xx

I've got over 200 rare Hoyas. Mealies are a given so I carry 90% Isopropyl & spray them when I see them. I rarely have issues, but they do pop up when I do a repotting. They come in some coconut husk & some certain brand soils.

You have all the jade goals, Jeff. Kinda makes me regret that I sold my first jade years ago coz it was getting too big. Lol. But I restarted last year with a gollum. Thanks for sharing! 😊

Yours is the biggest G jade I have ever seen! Wow and the trunk! That grew so much in about 4 years! I have a small one and have had about 5 over all the years...so I will start caring for my little one more carefully! Super nice!

I live in Florida. In the summer, my jades do just fine in full sunlight for the lion's share of the day, after being acclimated over a month's time.
Nice, informative video. Thanks.

I so appreciate this video and it's kind of crazy how well timed it was for me to find it. I have a gollum jade that has moved around with me for about 5 years but never had ideal conditions. Grew to about 8 inches tall and was starting to get the "tree" look. Then I gave it root rot... So I just decided to propagate and save it and this video is going to help me soooo much.

Your plant is goals!!! It's grown really well from your cutting. Impressive 👏

[thistooshallpass]

I have a lot of succuients and your advice about watering is spot on. They need regular watering and well draining soil.
Nice video! Thanks!

It's so satisfying when the soil bubbles like that.

No matter how many of your videos I watch, I still hear "Hi, Chef" in your intro, even though I know you are saying "Hi, it's Jeff" 🤣🤣🤣

I made a bonsai type environment for my gollum. Just starting to go through all my jades and other succulents for their annual trim, growth etc.

You make it all look so easy!
I like your brand choice for cactus fertilizer.

Funny thing about putting the plants outside in the summer—I live in the desert southwest of the US, and I can tell you that jade plants must be brought inside during the heat of summer! Portulacaria afra (elephant bush) is the only variety I know that can take the heat. I’ll have to find out about the Gollum variety. I usually wait until the temps start to hit 40º regularly, then the plants come inside until about November when they go back outside where they thrive until next year’s heat rolls around. When I first moved here from LA, I brought a huge jade plant that I proudly displayed on my front porch. It made it until about August, then I noticed it drooping a bit, then it happened very fast-within a week it seemed to actually melt, the entire plant seemed to lose its coherence and turned into a pile of brown mush. I cried-I’d had that plant for nearly 20 years, and it was too big to move inside—even cutting I took from the dying plant didn’t take. Now I keep them small, so that I can bring them inside.

Like 👍 210. Beautiful and healthy gollum jade plant👌. Nice sharing about watering propagation and care of this plant 👌

I've read jade plants prefer dry air over humidity. Mine are outside all year in central Florida. They get about 4 hours direct morning sun then bright shade the rest of the day. So far so good. I also soak the jaded and let them dry completely.

This is my favorite plant yours is so beautiful!

Thank you so much for showing the small white deposits I was really concerned it was bugs!
