You know, I’ve got to say that I really named this guy appropriately. He’s been through #AgaveWeavels, #BlackAphids, #spidermites and he’s still holding on. His blades won’t recover from those spots but he’s doing really, really well. I’ve got to baby him a bit more but he’s doing fine. He’s definitely a fighter. #AgaveBlueGlow #AgaveLove #Agave #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #OutOfQuarantineAndThriving #ProudPlantParent #CenturyPlant #CentralTexasGang

Should I repot my Agave outside of growing season to avoid/fix root rot & fungus issues? Xavier, my #agave Blue Glow still has wet soil (under the top dressing) although it's been 2 weeks since I watered him! 😓 (Due to too much heavy rainfall recently). I also noticed something that looked a bit like a fungus or mold in his pot which I would treat with a hydrogen peroxide solution soil drench but he's FAR from being ready to be watered again. I'm considering repotting him, treating the roots with hydrogen peroxide and giving him new gritty soil and a terracotta pot but... I know it's not 'technically' his growing season until spring. 😓 Although, in my experience many of my succulents grow all year! 🤷🏽♀️ I do live in California and grow outside, so I'm able to provide 4-5 hours of direct sunlight for him in my deck. He is otherwise healthy... I adopted him about a year ago and he's grown a bunch since then! 😀 Thanks #greggang 👍🏽❤️🤗 #succulentsquad #socalgreg #cactusclique #succulentlove #greggers #repotseason #help #growingsuccs

Update! Some people jumped in and gave some great insight on how to try to save my little agave! After a new pot, some very careful water monitoring, a grow light, and some words of affirmation, it seems to be doing better! Welcome back to life little friend!

What’s wrong with my Agave? I have it growing in a well-lit window, and water it only sparingly, but its leaves seem to be drooping. Is it in the wrong kind of pot? #Agave
