What is wrong with my Echeveria Fabiola? Why is there a black leaf? It’s wet to the touch…

Thanks!

Is it waterlogged? Did you mist it or get water on it at all? I’m not 100% sure, but it could be rot, and then you need to remove it and stop it from spreading. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks so much! I’ll definitely wait longer until the next watering.

Before I read anything and just saw the picture my first thought was over-watering as well…

I agree with Penny. I had one that got crown rot and it spread rapidly.

I would take a look at her stem and roots and check for rot. Cut off anything rotten and hopefully she’ll recover ❤️
