I’ve had this succulent for a while. I’m not very good with succulents as you can tell trying to get better, but can you guys help me out with this? What do I need to do what what’s wrong with it? I have a feeling I’ve been over watering it so I haven’t watered it in a minute, but I’m not too sure.
What kind of soil are you using? It might not have enough drainage. Also how much light is it getting? Is it sitting in a window, and if so which direction does it face?
0 Mi piaceNot too sure what soil this one has because I got it from my grandmother, but yeah, it definitely could not have enough drainage and I keep it in the window seal mostly all day except I take it out at night and I set it up there in the morning and my windows are south facing

It looks like the soil is wrong and it looks like its trying to reach for the sun but since you put it in a south facing window so I'm sorry i don't know what else it could be.

I know they like shallow pots-not too much room-and well draining soil. Overwatering is always my downfall with succulents.

The pot looks a little too large to me. I’d switch to a smaller terra cotta pot and a chunky soil. And add a grow light if it needs extra light. I just switched my succulents to a combo of cactus mix plus Jacks gritty mix and they’re finally not dying lol.

I can help ! First- downsize the pot it’s way too big Second - it’s leggy meaning it’s reaching for light try putting it right next to the window Third - are you overwatering ?

Re the light: I also have a great South facing window, but honestly I never had any luck with echeverias until I put them right under a grow light.
