Another interesting thing I forgot to mention about my baby chicks that I thought might be worth sharing. Before I knew what my Hen was or let alone a succulent was, my Hen would produce lots of offsets. When the offsets got pretty long on the Hen I would just pop them off and put them in a little short vase of water so I could propagate and establish roots (once again before I knew they could get root rot). They always did so good in the water. The stolon would start producing tons of little roots and the stolon would grow longer and longer. I gave away most of them except for the ones I currently have now and are trying to keep alive. I'm wondering if anyone else has ever done this with theirs? Why would they root this way when they don't want to be over watered? Confused
