My is my black night echeveria still having soft leaves? When it arrived, it was a little soft, which makes sense since it came from the other side of the country. However, what evades me is that despite bright, direct light and occasional, it is still soft. I just changed to an even smaller pot and plucked the leaves all the way at the bottom that were clearly on their way out. However, I need tips.

Can anyone help me understand why my black knight echeveria is wilting and shriveled? My echeveria black knight seems to be struggling—the outer leaves on the bottom layer are shriveling and wilting… The original problem was not enough sunlight but now I’m worried he was getting too much? (He was placed on a window sill that got 6+ hours of direct light facing southwest)….If not that then I waited too long to move him to a bigger pot (he was in his original one for a while too long)… Photos of old tiny pot and new one. Just moved him today. #Echeveria #BlackKnight
