@roxyvivien Roxy Viven !!! Oh my word.. these are drop dead gorgeous… happy plants for sure. Now spill the beans on your care for them. We all want to know.. 🫠🙌🏻❤️🔥🤔
@HonestEndive there is no set schedule for watering succulents.
It depends on many factors: tempurate, humidity, sunlight, season, soil type, pot material, and species (just to name a few).
Some plants in my collection get water as often as ever 5-6 days.
While others I water 3 or 4 weeks at most ... At this point I can tell when they need water by the look of the leaves & then I cross reference by looking up the last water date in the Greg app.

@CourtlyKingfern thank you! ♥
My secret is I have an obsessive personality and a cycle of ADHD hyper-focusing on a specific interest for about 7-10 years or so.
When I get into a new hyper focus I really go for it! I'm an avid researcher with a science background and I've been 100% obsessed with succulents for a few years now. I spend about half my day fussing over them, watering them, rotating them for perfect symmetry, making custom soil blends for each species, repotting them, or doing even more research...
I guess my secret isn't really a super sexy one... It's just loads of time, trial and error, and total obsession. 😳 😅 🤷🏽♀️🌱 💚

@roxyvivien Roxy that you for your explanation and sounds like your research has definitely paid off! Love them. May I call on you for help with a few of mine in the future? I was dumb enough to order 25 + without knowing a ton about them.
@roxyvivien Roxy do you have a particular fertilizer or boost to give your plants besides transplanting in new soil?
@courtlyking your certain welcome to tag me for help but I'll be honest I don't check notifications regularly... (I have way too much plant care to do daily, esp this time of year 😳) but if you catch me on here procrastinating, I'll reply! 😉
@courtlyking Oh and unless you are using a soil without fertilizer already in it or are growing under very intense growlights I wouldn't worry about fertilizer right now, they will be okay for the first year after repotting if conditions are just indoor lighting.
Beautiful!! @roxyvivien
