Question for anyone who has a thriving Burros Tail in 100+ weather.🤪 I live in North East Texas. I grew one fine last year until it got 100+. I got another one this year planning to keep it out of the intense heat. I thought that was its only issue but I’m beginning to think this is just one of those plants that need more care until they are bigger. I had it out in the spring but we get daily soaking rains thanks to lake effect. I brought it in my garage, repotted it, and placed it in front of a fan. Had it under a 5000K grow light, looked sad and stopped growing. So I put it in my kitchen under a 6500K grow light. It got sunburn. Ok, I moved it to my porch where it can get partial sun, but is shaded. Got knocked over, so I moved it to my front garden with morning sun and shade. Last week I saw it looking wilty and remembered it hates the heat. I quickly brought it in to my kitchen, watered it and moved it under the grow light. Then I remembered as I was falling asleep that it got sunburned there before, so I got up and moved it back in the garage under the 5000K light. It’s 90 in there so cooler than inside and there’s a fan in there, but it doesn’t really thrive there. It’s in a 2” pot, gets watered when the lower leaves feel less firm, and gets fertilized with a mild succulent fertilizer. I thought about putting it in my bathroom window with my variegated pothos, but I don’t know if that’s enough light.🤪 Most of my succulents are doing great but this one is giving me a run for my money.😄 What am I missing?😅🤪
