# I need help!! Hi everyone i’m new to this and this is my second…

_Publicado por Kayla el 2024-04-15_

I need help!! Hi everyone i’m new to this and this is my second chance succulent, Poquito, that i’m hoping not to kill. I’ve been sitting him outside everyday and I think I’m burning his leaves. Is that why he’s getting this yellowish coloration? What can I do to fix it? I just watered him on April 9th and the soil is already bone dry again. \*\*In Louisiana\*\*

Succulents love their water, so if the soil is dry, definitely water it. Sometimes planta is wrong. If any plant is bone dry (except like cacti) it needs watering. And for the burning, if it is in direct sunlight it is probably being burned. If its hot where you live, the heat may be damaging him too. But i would move him into partial sunlight and water him more regularly.

Misting succulents weekly-ish has worked well for me, and yes if the soil is completely dry, water it. Succulents like partial sunlight, so if you have somewhere in your house that is close to a window and has some light, I might put it there.

Thank you both! I live in Louisiana and I thought they needed to be directly in the sunlight so thanks so much for your advice
