Wooden Skewer is showing its completely dry, gently squeeze one and if its soft then its time to water.

perfect, I squeezed one earlier and it was soft!  
This is a perfect way to tell, thank you!

Does this work with aloes?

#### GreenLeaf svarade den 2024-05-12

I would assume it would work for any succulent that stores water in their leaves in that capacity. But I don’t have an aloe so I can’t say first hand if its a good tool or not for them.

Taco test. If you can bend them or they look. Like wrinkly old people their in need of a watering

If you think it needs to be watered, probably wait another couple of days lol. My rule of thumb for strings of things
