Dry dry dry. (That’s all I got. I’ve got one and have only had it for a month so I don’t really have solid credentials)

I don’t know if you’ve kept succulents before, but never get water on the actual plant and it needs a sunny spot. Does that pot have a drainage hole at the bottom?

I have them under a grow light and the succulent soil is on top of perlite. (That is what the nursery attendance suggested from Lowes!) They were pretty dry when I got them and looked dull, so I see color now and I will not overwater!

Same here. 25 days old. Expect them to shrivel some before watering. None in winter.

#### Rhonda svarede den 2023-07-29

They’re cool even when they’re not doing anything, aren’t they?

#### Annai C. svarede den 2023-07-29

I am just amazed! They perked right up and showed me their color after I planted them. I don't want them to die. 😩 I have a little baby succulent that was growing on the side of a pot and she perked right up too!

I keep mine in my greenhouse where it is warm and sunny. I have at least 20 of them. They are so pretty. And I rarely water. Once a month at most and not in winter. They flower and divide. Very cool. I also put small rocks on the soil and water the pebbles not the plants when I do water. I also use filtered water.

#### Annai C. svarede den 2023-07-29

Thank you! I used rain water... I will buy them little rocks!

I just got one as well I’ve been following Planta for watering seems these don’t require much but some sun. I haven’t dived into my research yet but seems like these are very tough plants my soil rn in mine is a basically a soil brick haha 😂. When I do water tho I have been bottom watering and according to everyone else this seems to be the best method as I guess top watering can be a bit risky.
