I was supposed to water this plant tomorrow but as I walked by it looked like it had shrunk. I watered it. Do you think it will die or will it come back?

Hi , how often is everyone watering their succulents and is it different fot cacti?

MummaDeb

Is it common for those top "leaves" to dry up and fall off? Seems it's always happening. I water when Planta tells me to and only when the soil is dry.

I can’t grow succulents. I don’t own succulents, but, they live in my yard. 😄 I have a history of killing them with love! I do too much and overthink it because I don’t want to be a serial succulent killer. So, I threw the last 3 Kalanchoe Laxiflora leaves into an old pot with some old dirt in it. And they are thriving…on the north side of my house without my intervention! They are spreading, multiplying and just bloomed at Christmas because it’s 80°F in South Texas. 🪴🍀🔥🥵

No matter what I do with this cactus it's not happy. I've had it since it was in a 4" pot so I'm attached. It started really drooping badly a week or so ago. Planta and AI suggested root rot. So I just repotted it to check the roots. Not many but the ones there were fine. I gave it new soil (cactus mix) and moved it from a grow light to a southwestern window. I've only watered it when the soil is completely dry, but it's sort of mushy. I'm clueless. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!!

Hello everyone, I got my aloe Rupert March 1st 2025 and I'm not sure if it is healthy or just passing by... It has grown quite a bit since I got him but as of recently I have not seen any new leaves starting to form. There are two leaves that I cut because they became brown and soft which haven't healed. Two of the leaves are folding/creasing on the bottom and I'm not sure what to do regarding that. In general most of my leaves feel relatively hard but some are a bit soft. If an expert could please give their opinion and any advice based off of the photos that would be very helpful 🌼

My Pilosocereus leucocephalus, AKA Hairy, is starting to get side hairs!! He's had the wisps on the top for a while. 😊 Definitely one of my favorite cacti.

Do you guys know what kind of Gastoraloe this is? It looks like two different kinds but I can’t figure which one. I’m a newer plant mom so trying to learn as much as I can!

Help!! My burrito boy is shriveling! When its leaves start to get soft is typically when I water it. It started to get wrinkly so I gave it a bit of water, but it still won’t stop. I can’t tell if it needs more or what but I’m scared to over water. Im not good with succulents at all (killed my last one 💔) so any advice is appreciated.

Hey Y’ALL! My Aloe 2 has went through a lot this Christmas 🎄 Winter bit, and a move from Arkansas to Louisiana! I cut her back added new soil and water, and she looks and seems a lot better! We’re staying in the 60-70 degree temps, night at 50’s. Should I bring her inside? Or leave her out in the sun?

This Split Rock is the slowest growing plant I have ever taken care of. I brought it home last March, and it has literally been unchanged til about 10 days ago when I noticed it’s preparing to put out new leaves! I wonder how long that process will take… maybe another 10 months?

I just bought these today. I thought they were a type of crassula. Similar to moon glow but leaves are more narrow, longer and not as chunky. My moon glow is on the right. The white on the leaves is from the nursery watering. Can anyone id these guys?

Hey everyone! I’ve noticed that my Jade has been getting some strange spots that I haven’t seen before. I live in a pretty cloudy and rainy area during the fall and winter, so it’s hard to give it sunlight for most of the day. I’ve had this Jade for about a year now, and while the top layer of soil is mainly to keep the roots in place, the majority of the soil is actually pretty airy. Is my Jade okay, and is there anything I can do to help it?
