Hubby bought me a succulent pot for our front yard. It was crammed full but had no room for anything to spread out and grow. I split the contents into two separate pots and they will decorate our front flower beds. We’ve had a lot of rain in middle-Tennessee the last 10 days or so I haven’t moved them outside because I keep reading not to water succulents for several days after repotting. The question is how many days is a “few”. Some websites say 3 days others say 2 weeks. I watered the plants PRIOR to reporting but didn’t water the soil once they were in the new pots. I’m new to succulents so don’t want to go overboard or shock them before they have a chance to acclimate. Planta asked when they were last watered but it was before they were repotted so is indicating not to water for another 20 days. Once I have the watering situation taken care I will harden them and move them outside. Then I’ll bring them back in for winter.

    I never water any of my succulents more than every 10 days in the summer, then about every 15 in the winter. You might not want to place them outside if it rains often in your neck of the woods. Hope this helps!

      It doesn’t normally rain like this…which is why we thought succulents were a good option for the space. Of course no sooner did we get them do we get a week straight of rain. 😄 we have a 10 day stretch of heat and no rain forecasted starting this week so hopefully this is a good time to get them moved.

      Yes! I am in Northern Alabama and I have never seen so much rain in July! I just bought a big aloe Vera plant and I wanted to sit it outside but I can’t!
