My advice, don’t overwater! Unless you plant is getting MAJOR sun, watering once every two to three weeks is best. If you succulent is ‘fat’, meaning leaves feel plump to the touch then they are “full”. They store the water in there petals so even though the soil maybe dry they are still full of water. If your succulents are “pruning or wrinkly” looking then they are too dry and need watering. Hope this helps! :) Jess with Rooted in Succulents

That’s probably part of my problem, I watered them, and even though I was trying to be conservative I probably over watered them. I am going to give it another try though because I love the way they look. Thanks for the advice!

I live in San Diego, so there’s climate to consider. My succulents are in partial shade, always. As the sun shifts with seasons, I shift the plants so the get some shade during the day. Second, I only water them once a month. Too much water and they get soft, or even rot. This is all I do besides trim when necessary. I hope it works, succulents are great to have!
