Is my plant infested? What’s wrong with it? πŸ₯²

#Echeveria
1ft to light, direct
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 1 month ago
@Imissmydeaddog it’s actually a 4 in diameter , I’m not too sure why I put 10 in
I had a similar issue with my Henry!!! I never found out what the issue was, but I removed all the dead leaves, and put in a little extra soil to cover the exposed stem a bit more, and I stopped watering him for a bit because his remaining leaves were soft and soggy. Once his remaining leaves returned to their normal feel, I gave him one pump of the liquid fertilizer I have once a week for about a month. ****(I don’t think it’s healthy to do that, but in my case it worked so take this with a grain of salt!!!!!!!)**** He’s thriving again now, after a stressful few months.
The pot still seems a little big. Try a 2 or 3 inch pot. Make sure the new pot has drainage holes. Use a homemade succulent soil mix (find a recipe online) and watch a video on how to repot succulents.
@SimpleSucc could you take a look at the previous pictures of how it used to look? Since the leaves were more bundant I thought that it would be suitable for a 4 in. Pot. Will definitely do as you recommended!!!
@haileyp617 thank you!!!
@AthleteOrpine I saw the photo. Echeverias just like their pots to be more snug.
@SimpleSucc thank you!!!
