# I got this succulent a few weeks ago, and put it out on my back porch…

_Posted by Kerryn on 2024-08-02_

I got this succulent a few weeks ago, and put it out on my back porch for full sun. A few days later, about half of the soil was dug out (or at least that’s what it looked like). None of my other outdoor plants were dug up, which is odd. A couple of days later it happens again. I brought it inside under a grow light about a week and a half ago. Now there is new growth. I am 99.9% sure it’s just weeds that somehow got in there when it was dug up, but can anyone confirm?
