# My big succulent, not sure the name. But it’s been really struggling…

_Publié par Plantgirly le 2024-05-06_

My big succulent, not sure the name. But it’s been really struggling yesterday when I repotted it had almost no roots. That was the first time I repotted since I bought it. Oh and it’s been in my table but I moved it for a few minutes to do this. Also if you have any tips on string of pearls I would love that too!!!

It needs a pot about the size of its roots so it can suck up the water. Sometimes that means a 2” pot. You can sit the tiny pot in a bigger heavier pot to keep the top heavy plant from tipping over.

It definitely needs more light as well. They stretch like this to get more light.

What kind of soil is it in?

It’s in a succulent soil. I just repotted it yesterday. And I was going to put it outside but it got to cold

I understand 😊

Do you have a sunnier window you can put it in? Sit it right on the window sill if you can.

Can you take photo from above? I’m trying to figure out what plant. I’m guessing an echeveria.

Ya I’ll make room on my window to put it
