How can I help my overwatered succs get healthier faster?
Still looking sad and dull. Kinda squishy. Trying to let my succs get dry, but they kept getting more water the last week for several reasons. Hoping they will recover and not get root rot.
If there's not a way to dry them out faster than just waiting then I guess I'll have to wait and hope.

If they’ve been watered recently, you can put folded paper towel under them and it will draw some excess water. I would recommend repotting in a terracotta pot, using cactus and succulent soil. Most cactus and succulent soil needs some additional perlite added to it. Then, don’t water again until it’s dry. You can put folded use a wooden chopstick or bamboo skewer to check for moisture. Stick it down to the bottom. If it has dirt stuck to it, or is damp when you pull it out, don’t water. If it’s outside and there’s a lot of rain, I move my outdoor succulents to the garage after I think they’ve had enough watering. Good luck! Aloes are pretty resilient.
