Potential

As a new succulent grower, I have heard all about leaf propagation. It works! This is no longer a leaf with a tiny potential plant growing out of it, it is a little plant that is free of the now-dessicated leaf off to the right.

It is about an inch across and I probably will pot it up from a 2-inch to a 4-inch soon. March 25th, it was 1/4th of an inch across and was still very dependent on the attached leaf.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think this is a leaf I stole from my nephew's back yard in Texas. That would mean the process took a little less than 10 weeks to get to this point. I didn't recognize the plant in the pot I stole it from, so I'm not sure what this will become. But it is no longer just a potential plant, it has crossed the threshold.

Meanwhile, at the greenhouse, I finally got the AC Infinity controller reconnected to the app, but only through Bluetooth. I went over there at dusk so I could see the screen on the controller. Yes, to answer the obvious question from people who have to ask obvious questions, I turned the screen brightness as high up as it would go, and it is still way too dim to program in daylight. But now that it is on my phone, I can see as I scroll through their frustrating non-intuitive screens, which is a big improvement.
