It recently started dropping a lot of leaves really quickly and developed brown spots on most of the leaves that dropped. I don’t know what’s wrong and I don’t know how to help it. I water it every 1-2 weeks when the top soil is dry. It got repotted in March and its health has just been spiralling since then. It used to live right by our south facing window, but i feared that the brown spots were developing because it was getting cooked during the day while I was at work, so I moved it to the center of the room. That seemed to make the leaves drop faster so i moved it back by the window today. I’m not sure what’s wrong and I don’t know how to fix her. Please help! ![7개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/5e_nxm2cTyG8BMjZ4IYbYw.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/RJTXRMKEQze-YiCa1rlsFw.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/buQSE8i5R_edL5TR3mt5lQ.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 4번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/d-26unRxRKa1ivVV3iXfhg.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 5번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/dtdub-29S3C_eXmImzEL5g.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 6번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/mk5RqlkcRgGbA5ZEYT7rVw.webp?size=large) ![7개 중 7번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/nBq8dtjrSnKXUh6fj2lu3Q.webp?size=large) ## 10개의 댓글 ### Mrlightison님이 2024-05-07에 댓글을 남겼어요. See the little white dots on the leaves? Looks like powdery mildew, with a little bit of stem rot, likely due to overwatering. Same thing happened to mine, but you can save it if you act fast. I repotted mine in fresh MiracleGro succulent soil to ensure lots of drainage, and have been using Captain Jack’s Copper Fungicide to control the powdery mildew, which has been working well. It’s a journey back from the brink, and it doesn’t look like yours is there yet, but it takes time and patience. #### Tara님이 2024-05-07에 답변했습니다. Thank you so much 🙏🏼 can you explain how you knew about the stem rot so i know what to look out for? Also when I repot, should i rinse out the previous soil from the roots at all? ### Bella님이 2024-05-07에 댓글을 남겼어요. Take some cuttings now just in case ! #### Succulent❤️Mama님이 2024-05-07에 답변했습니다. That is a great idea. 😊 You can cut part of a healthier stem a couple inches long and root that. You can propagate from a leaf but it takes much longer. Won’t hurt to do both just in case. I’ll insert one I propagated from a stem cutting a few weeks ago. It’s already got roots. I just cut it, let it lay on the counter to callous over for a couple days and then stuck it in a smallish terracotta pot with succulent soil. Follow the watering guidelines I posted below and it should grow roots if it isn’t too rotten already. #### Tara님이 2024-05-07에 답변했습니다. Got some babies earlier in the spring. Hopefully they last! 🥹 ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/l-4CCWzZpXeOi_oJy8V00kBHvGz3rQd8MN6QN78tiZI/7XkxWEGoRGS1YN6ElpgfBw.webp?size=large) #### Succulent❤️Mama님이 2024-05-07에 답변했습니다. Sorry, I thought I had a picture already but I didn’t!🤪 I just got outside to take one. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/y_krRxbnOnIl47_tU3sBzisysToGsAt6Bpht3PD4Szw/gu-kMuZiR4CYwN-efWynMQ.webp?size=large) #### Succulent❤️Mama님이 2024-05-07에 답변했습니다. Oh awesome! They look great and already have roots! You can probably plant it whenever you are ready!😊 ### Succulent❤️Mama님이 2024-05-07에 댓글을 남겼어요. You have to wait until all the dirt is dry, not the top inch. Succulents store water in their leaves like water balloons, not in the dirt. They should sit in dry dirt between waterings so the roots don’t rot. Then check the lower leaves for signs it’s time to water. When they become more wrinkly or not as firm, it’s time to water. You having it healthy so long tells me sometimes 1-2 weeks is the right time. If it’s getting more light or is putting off a lot of growth, it will need water sooner. The plant will tell you. #### Tara님이 2024-05-08에 답변했습니다. Thank you so much, I appreciate your advice! 💚 ### Tyler님이 2024-05-22에 댓글을 남겼어요.
