Hi everyone! I wanted to post an update on my little friends. The third picture is when I first repotted them in March, the second picture is a week after, and the first picture is now. It has been quite the journey learning their cycles.

Unfortunately, I followed the watering schedule that Planta recommended and my other lithops rotted from overwatering. :( Are you all using the watering schedule from Planta for your lithops? Any advice or tips for caring are welcome!

I keep telling myself no more succulents! But where did you get those? 😅😅

I get them from my local nursery! I’ve also seen some at Home Depot and Lowe’s 😊

One thought after looking at your pic. What that helped me not overreact when they suddenly looked horrible was to look at them in their environment. They sit really flat and have deep roots; they pop out of the soil if they are reaching. I follow the rule of keeping them quite low to the ground + a slightly deep pot to address - in my semi educated opinion - the long roots. Note that it took me all day to remember that ha.
