Never done pullings with pings before and first time 100% rate is good to see cause the first picture is my ‘Tina’ i wanted more and the 2nd picture is unknown as i bought the ping on sale as it was dying but managed to get some pullings, sadly the mother plant did die! RIP

So my question is when do i replant them or can i leave them like this in the containers they are in for a while? Cause im not sure how many little plant-lets are coming from 1 leaf.

Wow! Nice pullings!

When a leaf rossete get about the size of a quarter, I pot them separately. Usually one or two growth points take over and the other ones blacken.

If you really want lots of plants, you can separate them after they get a little size, or when you notice some being shaded out by others. Usually by that time any remains of the original pulled leaf will have rotted away and they’ll come apart easily. Ping riots are pretty shallow generally and grow back fast, so don’t worry too much.

Bonjour
for my part I always go to the end of the process (in fact when the seedlings have completely absorbed the nutrients of the succulent leaf, the latter becoming dry or rotten as BOB says)

be careful with peat, prefer to use with a good lightener to avoid too much water retention that could cause rot

Thanks, i was considering keeping it in sphag but i think peat should be reduced as you say my current pings i treat as succulents when it comes to watering and they seem fine the way i do that.
