Sorry, I should have said why I think I need to re-pot:

1. After about a month without watering, digging down about 5" revels wet turface.

2. There is a gray mold that formed on quite a few leaves, I picked these off.

Thanks

Jamie, great job on the pruning!

Your rationale for re-potting is sound.

Unfortunately, I can't advise on the ratio of Turface to Granite, but I'm sure Al will help.

This time, when you re-pot, hold off on watering. A Jade that large can go without water for months.

Jamie, you have a great looking jade and that looks like a nice pruning job. Your cuttings, btw, are larger than my jade plant!! :-)

Josh, I finally got around to pruning my jade (not sure if it qualifies as a whack!) I'll post an update in the original thread

Thanks Josh & Deburn. I'm letting these cuttings callus over than I'm going to put them in gritty mix to root them. Hopefully I'll end up with some additional nice looking jade plants.

Thanks

Jamie

I know this comment is super late, but in the interest of helping people who may come across it...

turface (calcined clay) is a great mix component for potted succulents, but it actually does retain water, and it clogs up the drainage pipes if you use too much of the fine grained bits. Pumice is better. Perlite is better. A good mix for your pot is about 70% perlite or pumice or mixed, about 15% turface and about 15% soil. Crushed granite or other rough gravel can also replace some of either the turface or pumice.

what you really do t want is any bark, peat moss, wood chips, or other organic matter.
