# Can I get some help with this fire storm sedum? I got it in February…

_Gepostet von GingeredGarden am 2024-06-25_

Can I get some help with this fire storm sedum? I got it in February and it was a lovely orange color. It quickly faded to green and I’ve been trying to figure out how to get it back to its original color but without luck.  
I’ve read that color can be affected by not enough light and too regular watering.  
I’ve got it in a 2.5” pot with drainage and in cactus/succulent mix soil and I let it dry out all the way before watering, and I top water until it is throughly drenched and coming out the drainage holes.  
I moved it from another room with medium low indirect light to this a little greenhouse under a grow light on the brightest setting for 12 hours. I don’t think I can give it more sun than it is getting. The greenhouse window is propped open so it doesn’t get too much humidity.  
What else can I try?

They turn the orange color in the full sun. I always kept mine in partial shade and it stayed green. This year I eased it into full sun and its golden orange. Mine go outside when it’s warm enough. They’re actually pretty cold hardy.

And I’m talking about Sun, Sun not grow light. Make sure you do not overwater it either.

Hmm ok maybe I will move it outside for a bit. It’s very humid where I live, though, and planta says they like low humidity. Will that be ok?

I’m in Atlanta so high humidity is what mine gets! 😝
