What am I doing wrong?
This is Ana, Ana has suddenly started wilted recently. Nothing has changed. I still water her regularly once every one or two months, I bottom water, sheβs in a terracotta pot and her grow light shines only for 3 hours a day. Whatβs happening? #SandRose #Succulents #help

@Succulentlover1 oh dear, I am no succulent expert, but I do know that they need much more than three hours of daily light and bimonthly watering. In a pot that small, watering somewhere between every 1-3 weeks would probably be better for her. (Depending on your climate/conditions, and how fast your substrate dries out) Because of all the dead dry leaves in the center, it looks like she is showing drought stress, Iβm afraid. There is still green though! you might be able to revive her with more light and water.
Itβs common for us to swing the other way and drench our plants when we realize theyβre too dry, but just try to aim for a good moderate amount of water, without making your soil soggy. If all else fails you might be able to snip off the green parts and try to re-root. π€πΌ I hope she makes it!

Looks to me like itβs not been watered and it seems to be trying to put out little roots at each of the nodes in a desperate attempt to find some water. So you might be able to cut the branch off and lay it down on some soil and let those roots go into the soil and get a whole bunch of plants. But you are going to have to water it a little. And I definitely agree with everybody that this particular plant likes a lot of sunshine and a lot of it in hours as well. οΏΌ
