# What’s happening?? She keeps losing more leaves! I water consistently…

What’s happening?? She keeps losing more leaves! I water consistently when the leaves get squishy (I wait about a week after the leaves start to squish a little) but she just doesn’t want to live!! SOS!!

Is it overwatered? Soil could be retaining too much moisture

#### Sapphire antwoordde op 2025-05-10

I don’t think it could be that. I also always check the soil before watering.

#### prayformyplants antwoordde op 2025-05-10

Is it a succulent?

#### Phil antwoordde op 2025-05-11

When you check the soil, is the entire pot bone dry? It should be.

#### Sapphire antwoordde op 2025-05-11

Indeed she is. Sedum clavatum.

#### Sapphire antwoordde op 2025-05-11

Yes. I poke the chopstick in more than one spot to make sure EVERYTHING is dry.

Looks like over watering.

How often do you water? Succulents can and should go weeks, even months without watering. The key to succulent success is to forget it exists.

#### brianna antwoordde op 2025-05-11

they should also be in a very chunky/rocky soil mixture. Nothing that holds moisture

### Laylay reageerde op 2025-05-11

I believe mushy leaves on a succulent indicates over watering. Im currently going through this too with one of mine. 🤧

#### Laylay antwoordde op 2025-05-11

Place a paper towel folded a bunch of times under neath the plant. Keep doing that until the paper towel isn't wet anymore. Then put him back where you usually have him for light. Let him dry a little and see if that helps. :)

Looks like overwatering. My wife says the same too.
