How to remove pups from succulent stem?

User
8 years ago

I have several pups (i.e., baby plants) growing out of the stem of my succulent plant and was wondering what is the proper method of removing and replanting them? I found some resources online but they are not clear in how to actually remove them. Is it okay to just gently wiggle the base of the pup until it snaps off (similar to how to remove a leaf from the stem) or does the base need to be cut with a sharp knife and a part of the mother stem need to be attached? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
