The leaves could become dry and shriveled if it gets too dry during the day.
It's easy to propagate a jade plant. The plant can be divided or propagated by stem cuttings. The easiest method is to cut the plant's healthy leaves and then place them in a mix of 50% soil and 50% perlite. You should then water the leaves lightly and inspect for moisture every so often. Within two weeks, you should see tiny green plantlets growing out of the leaves.
Jade plants require direct sunlight. They cannot withstand frost. They need to be kept warm if temperatures drop below 50oF. While they can tolerate temperatures up to 75oF for short periods, it is important to keep them away from children and pets.

First, ensure your jade plants are in a suitable container. A container that isn't large enough for your jade plant should be chosen. Next, place the pot in an area that is warm to water it. It is important that the pot is not placed too close to the roots.
The jade plant grows well in a potting mix that contains high-quality nutrients. A mixture of high-quality soil and moist soil is the best for jade plants.

A jade plant should be kept in a bright and dry place. The soil should never be too dry. You can mist it every now and then. After about a week the roots should begin to form. The plant will then grow in the pot. Once the roots have formed, it's time to place the cutting in a container that fits the pot. It can be kept as long as it doesn't get too dry. If you don't have enough water, the pot may become too big or too small.
A pot should be at least 4 inches in height to grow jade plants. Ideally, the pot should have an average pH level of 6.5 or higher. The soil should also be slightly acidic. The jade plant needs more sunlight than a standard succulent. If it does, it should be kept in a shady area for the first few weeks and then moved gradually to a sunny spot.
You can grow jade plants in a container, but it is not possible to do so with a container that has a cactus-like roots structure. This type of soil is good for plants who aren't used to getting their roots wet. Jade plants are beautiful and also a symbol for good luck in Chinese culture. It is often considered lucky because of its culture.
