What is your care routine? How much light? Water? Extra.

Succulents are not my experience but I’d say more light and less water. Because I’m an overwaterer I’d never use soil but that’s just me. Id also say check the roots for rot but you said every time you touch it the leaves drop.

I was doing every 2 weeks water and it’s in a window! Maybe less water to 3 weeks and a different window?

I don't have experience with this particular succulent but I find that letting them dry out 75%+ before watering always does mine well.

#### Lisette svarade den 2023-11-20

Depends on the climate! But in the colder months, I typically go 3 weeks for succulents

Which direction does the window face? It will do best in a South or West window. Also maybe replant in the same size pot but not the nursery pot.

#### Lisette svarade den 2023-11-20

Agree about the window! Also have you checked the roots?

#### Laurel svarade den 2023-11-20

Okay I’ll replant this weekend and try to figure out which way my house faces and switch windows!

#### Lisette svarade den 2023-11-20

If you have an iphone, I use the compass app! Definitely made it easier haha

#### Laurel svarade den 2023-11-20

I haven’t! I’ll repot this weekend and check the roots out!
