Haworthia cooperi’s stuck?

Hello plant people 🪴 my H. cooperi is doing nothing, again. I was told some time ago that she would start to do something after summer’s dormancy, but now it’s almost winter time here and nothing seems to be happening — except perhaps for a very tiny growth of one of her babies, but nothing exceptional. She’s placed always indoor in the same spot, right near a north-east facing window. Any advice from experts? I’m absolutely astonished by her refusal to give a hint of.. well, something. 😳 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #SucculentLove #Haworthia
The important thing is it looks pretty healthy. Winter time outside and winter time inside may be quite different in terms of temperature. If the pup is growing, then that is something I advised to wait a little longer.
I mean, succulents are very slow growers. You won’t see anything drastic every single day, it’s more of a “you’ll notice some change after a handful of months!” type of plant… but even that little bit of change is still not going to be much crazy.

Ones that I notice more change in are the tree-like ones, like jades! You’ll see the leaves sprout more often. Haworthias are kinda hard to see big change for a while. They just generally get magically bigger over time.
@itsjordan @BEsucculent yeah, well, I remember the spring I first got her she had been growing like crazy, putting out babies and sizing up.. I could literally see that 😳 however she’s gone silent after that outburst of energy, so I wonder whether it was a way to adapt to her new environment. That’s why I’m wondering about her stone-like life now. However, I’m happy she looks healthy! If you’ve got any other advice, thx in advance 🪴
@slayonium omg that’s absolutely the least thing I would have thought about!! I hope you’re sure of that, cause I’m immediately gonna drown her 😂 jk however wow, I was actually scared to water her too much cause I don’t want her to rot.. I’ll start to increase waterings then, and see how it goes! Thx! 😳
