This ALWAYS happens with my succulents 😭😭 I don’t really understand. What I do understand is that the reaching could be due to improper lighting, is that correct? What about how freaking tall and then all the dying leaves? That one is just chillen and I love her lol

Some varieties naturally stretch - just give them as much sun as you can. ❤️

if you want, you can chop and prop! cut off the entire top of the succulant with enough to have a decent stem, remove the dead lower leaves. let the cut callous over, and then plop it in a good chunky succulant soil! continue to give as much light as possible, but wait a week or two to water.  
on the stem that you cut from, leave it rooted, and it will grow pups from the stem!! it will grow multiple, which can result in a pretty bushy look!  
have fun, and hope this helped!!

Wait thank you for saying that because I know I could chop and prop the top part, but I didn’t think about the base I chop from also growing! I think I’ll do that!
