So I repotted her today and watered her with the repot. This evening I noticed a leaf that was waterlogged so I took it off. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ @sillyplantgirl #succulentsquad #succulentlove #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy

Never water succulent or cacti after a repot.

ALWAYS wait 1 week. They shock and don't drink for a while.

@SuperbRaspfern Can confirm. That’s how I lost the first echeveria I ever got.

I remember you bringing it home. With a “rosette” that big, you’ll have to lift leaves up so you’re not watering them. Wet leaves in it fungal disease and rot. Make sure it’s bone dry before watering, then water until it pours out the bottom. Don’t let it sit in water.

Ack…hit send button on accident. I lastly wanted to say that with you just getting it a few days ago, and repotting- it will go thru stress- new environment plus repot. Give it some time to get used to the new home- a few days to a week.
