# For teach appreciation week, I received this cute little pot of…

_Pubblicato da MsMegs il 2023-06-15_

For teach appreciation week, I received this cute little pot of succulents. I did some research but found contradicting info on when to water, if I should transfer to a bigger pot, sun light etc.

So I’ve kept it in its original pot, soil and all, and watered every 7-10 days. It has seemed to double in size already. But I feel like it’s also crumbling/ getting spots of rot or breakage already.

The flowers look super dehydrated. But I’ve never seen flowers on a succulent before so maybe they are supposed to look dried up?

Any help would be appreciated! I’d love to be able to keep this baby alive as it was my first given to me as an appreciation give in my dream job!

You may have to zoom in. There are some yellow spots on the true green stems that I consider rot or breakage. And there is definitely breakage on the grayish purple flat leaf succulent towards the back.

Thanks for any advice

Water when it’s bone dry. Make sure it lots of sunlight. I recommend a water meter. Like $12 on Amazon.
