Oh, they look a bit wilted. It’s difficult to say but maybe overwatered, too peaty soil (they prefer more grit and sand). And how about the light? They need full sun or slightly shaded ☺️

I have them in full shade what kind of sand do I buy

#### Sae replied on 2023-05-24

There’s a lot of sand advertised on Amazon as soil cover or to mix into soil. There might be cheaper options but I got “desert sand soil cover” by Mosser Lee when I made my soil blends and it worked really nicely

The soil looks pretty dry, also, full sun may be a /bit/ too much sun. Try moving them to a more indirect light.

Ok I will
