Is my Echeveria Subsessilis sick? I’ve had it for a while and I’m conscious of not watering if the soil feels moist, it was growing and looking really good and all of a sudden it started loosing leaves and it has some goo in the middle.

    I think that might be crown rot? You have to be careful not to pour water over these guys to keep their crown dry, especially if they're in a high humidity area of your house. Also lots of direct sun would keep the crown dry.

      I just did some searches on that and I think you’re right. I try not to water the plant itself but I have not been 100% careful about it. Also I’ve been using a succulent fertilizer once a month and even though it’s a pump and I do it on the dirt around the plant, maybe I got too close to the root or even got some fertilizer directly on it. I always try to be careful, but I didn’t know it could actually kill the plant, so I definitely could’ve been more careful about it. Thank you so much you’ve been very helpful!!

    Or if you recently fertilized they can get sensitive to that

      I have been using a once a month succulent fertilizer and now thinking about it, I might’ve gotten too close to the root or maybe even got some on it, so that could’ve been a big part of the problem. Thank you that was very helpful
