What does my tufted ice plant need? did I just traumatize it by repotting it or does it need more sun/water?

It needs full, direct sun. I grow them outside here in GA. It’s a fast grower.

I give it as much sun as I can. I have a grow lamp in my cart on amazon. buying it now.

It might have a pest, I’ve been told spraying it with isopropyl alcohol helps kill common pests then spraying it with water to rinse it but I’d definitely do more research on that.
