Is this an echeveria Minima, Crissy N Ryan or something else? First photo when it arrived and second photo is it today (red pot). It is 4/5cm wide

How can I fix my echeveria? Planta says it’s lack of humidity so I put her on some wet pebbles and misted today, but I thought succulents didn’t really need moisture. The inner budding leaves look healthy but the outside older ones are a mess.

Ok, so he was outside because I’m an idiot and he got burned. I’ve since brought him in and there’s tons of beautiful new growth. Should I cut off his burned pieces, leave him alone, put the new growth in a different pot, or what? Thanks!

Hi! I have some hairy stemmed rhipsalis cuttings(?) that I've been keeping just in water since December. They have been doing well with root and stem growth, but I figure it's about time to give them a more permanent home. Going from water like this, what are some good options? Thanks!

My cactus is looking a little sad, and I don’t know how to fix it! (First picture is what it looked like about a month ago, second one is today)

Hello! Today I was moving and i accidentally knocked some leaves off my succulent. It had already shed most of its leaves and so now it’s super bare. The leaves that feel off today were at the top and it only has one leaf at the bottom. Is there any way to help stimulate more growth? Or will it just happen naturally? Thanks for the help!

This Zebra cactus recently has begun to topple. I’m not worried about rotting roots since I’m pretty conservative with watering (every 7-10 days). Should I get a bigger pot? Should I propagate some of the offshoots into their own pots? There are four offshoots, two of which are visible.

I watered my plant twice this week and still feel like the leaves are droopy. I’ve never had a succulent before and l’m new to this. I’ve had the plant for 3 months, I'm not sure what kind of succulent it is. I checked the soil and it seems dry. Should I water it again? I usually water every Monday I watered it Monday and Wednesday and the plant still looks droopy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had this Mammillaria Longimamma under shade cloth, but the more I read, it sounds like the preference is mostly shade if not total. So we’re in the house now. Maybe her coloring will get better now 🤞

I’m assuming this is a prickly pear cactus that’s what google told me and it said that the wood looking was normal for cactuses but wanted the opinion here

I can’t tell if she’s drooping because she’s starting to vine or if something is wrong. Any tips??

Can’t figure out why it looks like there were bites taken out of the leaves of my false Christmas cactus, have checked thoroughly for bugs, don’t know what could be the cause of this?! Otherwise, it seems pretty healthy!! Any ideas on the cause?

Hi all! My vsoh has been doing wonderfully and has already been flowering for a couple months I believe. It just keeps growing and growing!! However, the hearts have gotten significantly smaller as it grows. I’m wondering if this is normal, especially bc it’s flowering, or if I should change anything. It’s been in a west window its whole life and only gets watered when the hearts can gently fold like a taco. I gave it fertilizer I think two weeks ago. Extra Q: I’m introducing a kitten into my room very soon and I know this particular plant will be very tempting but it’s so long that anywhere I put it, it’ll be dangling too low or too far from the window. Any suggestions?
