ComradeCroneLOTS of light or it will get super leggy fast. And they need water more than you think. If it is completely dry, water it. Google and plant apps have killed many of my cacti and succulents because it says to wait a month between waters.

Do you know whether it prefers direct sunlight or just bright light? No worries if not :)

Definitely direct light these are desert plants. Even low light plants do much better in brighter light so I always go direct if it says bright, medium if it says low, etc. which really just means I put them under different types of grow lights with varying distances from the light because I don't have or use much natural light lol

PhilTypical Echeveria care—some sun or good quality grow lights, only water when soil is bone dry. When lower leaves are slightly bendable, it’s time to water. Watering may be weeks apart, even over a month. Soil should be very gritty with small percentage of organic material. Miracle Grow Succulent Soil should be avoided. And of course a pot with drainage. Water until entire pot is wet.

Yeah I tend to wait a month to water mine. But I also gently touch the bottom leaves to see if they feel soft or look wrinkly and that’s usually when I water. If you watch them closely you can start to see when they need water by looking at the leaves themselves. And I water pretty deep when I do.
