How to fertilize Haworthia cooperi
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Haworthia cooperi after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Bart’s Blooming! It’s so cute! I found this one unlabeled at a local nursery, and guessing it’s a Haworthia cooperi? I don’t keep it in this window for more than a few hours: intense CO sun stresses them out. I’m a recovering plant killer and it’s taken me 3 years to figure this out. 🙃 #Haworthia #HaworthiaCooperi

Calling on #succulentlove #succulentsquad Haworthia cooperi and Haworthia obtusa....both of them have lost almost any plumpness. It's like they aren't taking in any water. One of my mixed succulent bowls had a couple of plants doing this, and I had it in fairly high light ...I moved it to lower light and the Gasteria started to plump back up. Anyone else have experience with their "juicy" Haworthia plants deflating? If so, have you found a way to improve that? A pic of what it currently looks like, and an internet pic of what it's supposed to look like (in comments). #happyplants
