Question
How often should jade plants be fertilized, please?  I love jades but have trouble with them
rotting.  I don't think I overwater.  Thanks.

Answer
improper watering is uusually the #1 reason for leaf yellowing and/or dropping. water by weight. put a saucer under the pot. water and let the plant sit in the excess water for 5-10 minutes. after that time pour off any excess water in the saucer. pick up or lean the pot. it should feel heavy. don't water again until it feels considerably lighter in weight. outdoors check the plant everyday. indoors check it every 3-10 days. watering frequency depends on many factors(sun exposure, type of plant, wind, day temps, etc.).
yellowing or dropping leaves can be a sign that the plant has not been fertilized on a regular basis. adding new soil will help alliviate this problem quickly. indoors you need to add fertilize on a weekly to monthly basis during the growing season.
for jades during the growing season once a month at 1/4 strength should be enough.

good luck.
