Hi, I just checked the succulent that I’ve had for a while and found these, which look like burn marks. Still, I don’t understand what’s going on because all of the winter months I was trying to test out a light, a plant light, and it would become Lagi after a while cause I don’t think it was getting enough light. I moved it back to the original place. It was the windowsill that was south-facing, and I don’t water very often, as I follow the advice, and I’m checking it to water it. I see all of this, and it’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen, and I’m gonna attach a picture of the one next to it, which is your original mother plant, and it’s driving really well. I thought if I put it back to its original place, it would get better, but I don’t know. I’m scared. I’m really scared. I also added pictures of what it used to look like before winter, so I’m not sure whether I should chop it in half. I don’t know what to do. I’m so sad and scared. Edit: another thing to add is that I watered both plants at the same time, which is why the result is more shocking. The plant also hasn’t even come up, yet it’s in six days

    First of all the second pic, looks to be a beautiful plant. And you are correct, the damage does look like sunburn. Maybe the move was too sudden and would be fine with a gradual transition. Some succulents get leggy even with a lot of light. But looking at your plant, to me it looks to be a pachyveria blue quartz not a ghost plant. Ghost plants have shorter plumper leaves. But could be wrong. Similar care anyway. Since it is etoliated, you can easily cut off the top, let it callous over a day or so, and stick it into a good quality cactus soil. Look on YouTube for more specifics. Pic is my graptopetalum that I propped. Those are just stem tops pushed into soil and left to root. High success rate. My plant is light color because it’s highly variegated. There is no fixing its current condition. You will need propagate it.

    If it feels too leggy you can always gently pull off some of the undamaged leaves to propagate. As long as the end of the leaf that connects to the plant stays intact, the success rate should be high

    Sorry it was AutoCorrect. I meant to say I did decide to take your suggestion.
