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 Pearl Echeveria after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hey yall! I got my echeveria a few months back and it wasn’t doing too hot then. It looks better now but I’m not completely sure if it’s thriving because of the shriveled leaves and white webbing on the leaves. Does anybody have any advice? Thank you! #Echeveria

I bought Orson online and the poor thing came stretched all the way to one side. I’m thinking light on the other side for a while. What do you think?

Hello my beautiful community 🤍 I have been noticing this succulent has been breaking off and curling on the leaves. Is this a sign of overwatering or is it too dry? Can she be saved 🥹
