This wasn't my first time potting succulents. Technically it was the first time repotting them.
I got this from a family member and thought I would divide it into smaller plants including kids as the pot was clearly too small for the kiddo. I might be wrong but those plants I got are called Haworthiopsis attenuata (Zebra Plant) and Gonialoe.
The Gonialoe wasn't any bad to repot. A regular thing, you get it from the pot, (I didn't remove the soil as there wasn't much to remove), and put it into a newer pot with fresh soil.
The bigger Haworthia I wasn't expecting to be this tough tbh. I had to cut the pot to get what's inside first.
These babies didn't want to come out. It was the mode stressful repotting I have ever had. I was afraid to break the kids or cut more roots that I should have. You know how that happens, right?
So this is how it started:
The soil was so tough, I have never dealt with this kind of soil before. I spent like an hour or so to remove the soil trying not to break the roots. In the end I had 3 bigger plants and 3 kids.
The roots are healthy (sure I had to fight with them for an hour). I had a few parts broken with no roots and to be honest I don't know whether they survive or not but you never know so just keep trying. So I put them into one container and will see what happens next. In the end, I got 6 pots with big and smaller plants.
I should have cut the blooming but maybe maybe tomorrow? :) Will keep this post updated, excited to see what happens next.
