How to fertilize Bredasdorp Gasteria

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 Bredasdorp Gasteria after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Could anyone help me identify this plant? #Gasteria is what the app classified it as, but I as very new to having plants. I received this as a gift without a tag. Thank you!

Can this plant take sunlight #Gasteria

Agave? So I adopted my lil succulent baby and I’m kind of unsure exactly if it’s an agave or some other type of succulent. The plant iD came up as “tequila agave” but I know this isn’t exactly right. Does anyone happen to know what type of succulent this is? Thanks in advance 🥰💗🪴!

I don't know if I should stop watering??

Should I stop watering? This is a leaf from one of those Kosmic Kactus that someone gave me. He has babies coming up beside him, I guess they are called babies🤷♀️. The mother leaf is very, very plump. I've been watering like the Greg app says, and he seems to be doing great, but I'm a little concerned because the mother leave is so plump now.

Why is this so brown? Is it identified correctly? I took this from a friend but it looks like it needs triage #Gasteria
-
What type of succulent is this? I got this plant from Lowe's a few weeks back and there was no tag. I don't think it's what Greg says because it's not warty. It's smooth. Is it a type of aloe? #plantsmakepeoplehappy #happyplants #succulentsquad #aloevera #gasteria

How often does everyone’s gasteria flower? I’ve noticed recently that every month mine has been flowering this year and at least twice it flowered 2 times in the same month #Gasteria

How should I tend to my Succulents damage? When I arrived home and began to check my new succulent more carefully, I noticed what looked like cuts, almost like someone just put clippers right to it. She looks very healthy, but the damage is still making me worry. A few of the limbs that have been cut seemed to have closed up nicely and should be fine. There's this one huge gash that I am worried about. What should I do? - #succulentlove #helpneeded #succulentsquad
