    You are going to have to take her out of the pot and pretty much pluck all her petals. Look at videos on youtube that talk about what to do with etiolated succulents and pick the option you want to go with. You might have to behead her too since she’s pretty far elongated, but check out a few videos first before you decides

      Yeah. I’m going to chop it up and try to propagate the base and the head along with a few leaves once spring arrives.

      Good luck! I hope the propagation is successful

    If the etiolation occurred under said grow light then obviously said light is not strong enough. Nothing can be done to ‘fix’ the etiolation. At this point chop and prop.

      Okay do you have any recommendations for grow lights?

      I have a mars hydro 150w that has treated me well for a couple years now. Keep in mind no grow light is equal to the sun.

    My echeverias handle 8+hours of full sun in the summer with no issues. So they like sun.

      They’ll live outside once spring comes

      If you allow them to go dormant in the winter they will not grow. Therefore no etiolation.

    It may be etoliated but I think it is cool looking. Besides most people would not know what it is supposed to look like. I have a few and they are under Sansi grow lights. A 36watt bulb and a 70watt ganger of bulbs.
