hey guys, can you help me with my succulent? it is shedding leaves although the leaves seem healthy and crunchy. idk what to do, i moved it from full sunlight to partial sunlight last week and this week it started shedding leaves. i have kept the shedded leaves for creating roots just in case. but idk what’s wrong. please help!
Judging from the overhead pic, I would suggest the leaf drop is from overwatering. It looks like possible edema on the leaves and the soil appears way too organic. Watering routine should be waiting until the entire pot is bone dry and the leaves feel rubbery. Then drench until entire pot is moist, with water draining from bottom. Soil should look almost gravel like with only about 20% organic mixed in. Direct morning sun is great with rest of day in bright light. Direct sun means the sun is visible from window, not just bright sunlight. And it will prop easily. Cut off top rosette with enough stem to anchor. Allow stem end to callous over for a day. Then pot in succulent/cactus soil. Moisten the soil around the stem a few times a week until roots grow.

Yeah it’s good for succulents but it should be a fine-grained sand mix. There shouldn’t really be any corse sand
