Really bright light! Can even handle some full sun. Wait til they are dry then wait two more days to water. Leaves will feel thin. Happy growing 🫶🏼

PhilI will share my routine. First is change the soil to a good quality succulent/cactus soil. Not miracle grow brand succulent mix. Or make your own. Recipes online. Remove a lot of the nursery soil during the repot. Remove any dead dried leaves. Best pots are shallow terracotta. Try to avoid deep pots at this time. Only water when soil is totally dry. Pot will feel lightweight. And bottom leaves should be soft and bendable. Needs lots of very bright light. Direct morning sun is best. However, your plants look like they have not been in super bright light, so acclimate them to brighter lighter over a week or so. My clue is they are lacking the sun stress colors. When repotting, make sure the leaves won’t grow into the sides of the pot. May require a slightly higher soil level. Pics are some of my succulents. My profile is public.

SerNicHi Phil, Super intrigued by your 3rd picture. Do you place cactus soil under those rocks?

Yes. All those pics have gravel topping. I don’t always use a topping. Here are two without. It just kinda finishes it off. Soil is modified Jacks Gritty Mix. I add some regular potting mix to it to hold onto water a little longer. Percentage depends on which succulent.
