Wrinkling leaf on my Prolific Echeveria

My succulent plant started to wrinkle on this one leaf and just watered her like a day or two ago. I’ve been keeping my eye on it since I noticed like a month ago a couple weeks after I switched it to a different planter cause she was getting too big in the terrarium. I’m thinking I might have to elevate her to get more light on that leaf. #SucculentLove

I believe your succulent may be a victim to scale. I would remove any affected leaves and quarantine from your other plants.

Try to get systemic granules from Bonide and follow the instructions to help. I would also suggest changing the soil with fresh new soil to get rid of any pests and bacteria. Also, I would suggest rinsing the roots with lukewarm water and hydrogen peroxide. You can also use isopropyl (no more than 70%) to kill anything that is killing your plant.

You can also use a fungicide or insecticidal spray. Make sure to use this at night to avoid scorching of leaves, and keep away from direct light.

I use Natria or Neem Oil. And these are the Granules I use! @Ghost
I agree with @kscape . Those dots say insect problems.
So I took you advice and looked at some other plants and did some research.. noticed the same thing in two other plants πŸ˜ͺ thank you πŸ™πŸ» I appreciate itπŸ’–
