My plant is wilting and I don’t know why. I water it once a week. It’s been slowly dying for the past month. What should I do.

It’s most likely getting overwatered, try letting the soil completely dry out before watering because it’s a succulent, it may not be getting enough sun and is just relying on glucose and oxygen in the air meaning an unsustainable amount of ATPs in it. Less water more sun.

According to the app you should be watering it every two weeks not every week. So it may be over watered check to see if it has root rot and then cut back on the watering and maybe propagate a few pieces as a back up just in case it continues to go south

1x a week for this plant in this size pot I’m going to say is way to often. Mine is in a pot half the size and I water every 14-18 days. They are a succulent so they need to fully dry out (and then some) before being watered again. Its very easy to overwater these guys.

If overwatering is the issue then I’d cut your losses, chop the good portions and try to propagate those.

They also require a lot of light, especially to the top of it. So depending on where you have it, lack of light may also be a factor.

Chop the heathy parts and propagate

I want to say that your plant is in too large of a pot. Succulents have super tiny root systems that grow slowly. When you have all that extra soil staying moist after watering it likely was creating root rot. I would try to dig up your plants healthy stems and go for a 2 inch pot if you can
