I have a succulent that has white stuff growing on it and the leaves are dying quickly. What is it and what should I do? Any help would be great. 🙂

It looks like powdery mildew but I’m not sure how best to treat it, sorry.

Powdery mildew, for sure. It’s caused by fungal growth. Google “How to Identify, Treat, and Prevent Powdery Mildew on Succulent Plants” for treatment methods. There is a thorough article on that site. Good luck🍀🪴

Thank you! I will try that.

As others stated, powdery mildew. It’s usually because the potting medium stayed too wet or there’s not enough sunlight. Hard to remove once established though :(
