The bottom leaves are looking translucent. Sign of overwatering.

#### Victoria Hernandez replied on 2026-06-18

Oh man… I usually wait 1 or 2 to water it

### Brooke commented on 2026-06-18

Ya, try letting her dry out completely before you water next, and make sure she’s getting some warm sun!

#### Victoria Hernandez replied on 2026-06-18

Yes that I do. I have it facing an east window

How often are you watering? You may need better soil for cactus/succulents. This is the soil mix I use. For echeveria i add even more grit than this soil sample.

I'd recommend starting a propagation and checking for root rot

#### Victoria Hernandez replied on 2026-06-18

I’ve seen videos where they cut from the steam ?

Succulents are awesome for propagating. Leaves are the easiest way, pop it off, let it callus for a day then put in soil (very lightly), don’t let it dry out too much, and you’ll have roots and baby leaves in no time. I have 20+ moonstone plants from a stretched mature plant that I completely took apart.

#### Liv replied on 2026-06-19

You can also cut the head off and put that in the soil to root
