I am so bummed about this. Moved one of my prized echeverias to a different grow light yesterday, and got burned. And there is no fixing. Scarred for life. It’s one of my largest-5 and half inches across. Don’t know why I posted this but maybe to let everyone know that even when you are most diligent, crap happens.

I’m sorry.

How close was the light?

### Phil reageerde op 2025-09-30

About six inches. Same distance as previous light but this is a new light and apparently a lot brighter. I have many succulents under grow lights and I’m usually very good about the light needs but this one I misjudged. Empty space is where it was.

Tell your echevaria that he's ruggedly handsome and wears his scars well. He should be proud for surviving a battle against a miniature sun

Oh wow, I’m sorry. It’s clear from the pic your plants are well taken care of! They are beautiful. Appreciate the post, especially as a new plant mom. We can learn from each others experiences 😊
