Bottom one is Cremnosedum 'Little Gem':) Top one I cannot think of the name, but I see it around. I'm pretty sure it's a Sedum:).

Even "generic" succulents can be pretty;) 'Firestorm':) I wish I would have taken a picture earlier when this thing was blooming. It had white blooms everywhere:). The second pic is 'Opalina'. Third and fourth pic is just your plain old ice plant. When those things bloom I'm pretty sure even the most stuck up succulent person would be stopped in their tracks.

Hey, Guy! I've used about all the methods you mentioned to propagate Kalanchoe cuttings. LOL I really didn't see a lot of difference. But I will say -- please don't use any sand. It tends to compress around the roots and hold too much water. Just not worth the risk. I assume you are in SF Bay area (and not Tampa Bay - yeah, I'm a little snot sometimes) so you won't have to worry about excess moisture blowing in during the summer months. So a potting mix of 50/50 perlite and soil will probably work well for you. I get a lot of rain, so I tend to use an inorganic gritty mix of perlite, turface and granite grit. I can't get pumice here, but you can in CA and it is great. Since these mixes are dry, when I put my cuttings into it I don't wait more than a few hours for the stem to callus. Sometimes I will dip the stem into powder rooting hormone right away and pot it up a little later. As long as I don't water right away I don't worry about rot. After a week I may water a little if the cutting is starting to look dry, but if there are no roots the plant can't take up the water. Some people mist when the plant is dry. When you see new growth, start watering as usual. Here's my original plant with a couple of (etiolated) cuttings started - And like yours, I ended up with woody stems - So I did the cuttings and saved what I could. And they still bloomed! And eventually they grow up - and will probably be woody again soon! LOL Don't ask me why my plants are droopy - like a hanging plant! They always do that and I can't figure out why. I have them outside in partial sun. They fried in full sun for me. But they keep growing and blooming, so I'm happy!
