Sedum Firestorm started dropping some leaves.

I just found this today. These were a gift from @TwistedThreads a month or so ago. I think I am doing everything I should NEED HELP!! Could her pot be too large? Does she need a shallower one. This is my first succulent of this kind. She is in a South window and grow light at dark. Avg temp is between 68 and 70. humidity between 40 and 50. soil is my mix of 1 part cactus, 1 part bonsai jack gritty mix a handful of perlight and a dash of worm casting. #plantsmakepeoplehappy #sedum #succulentsquad

They’re just starting to wake up. Leaves will fall to try to fill the pot and as it’s vertical height increases. Watch the water. Your pot is a bit big so water with a need moss bottle at the base of each plant in that pot to centralize moisture to each root ball.

Oh, thank goodness @AnthuriumQueen, I thought I was on my way to losing them. I have to ask, what is a need moss bottle? Do you recommend repotting into a shallower container?

@Stall54Jo my apologies. Autocorrect kicked in. It’s a needle nose squeeze bottle. Link is below:

That makes a little more sense @AnthuriumQueen, so funny. Yes I understand now. I use something similar actually for top watering. I use a plastic bottle with pointed tips so I can better control the water flow better. Thankfully for your help.
