Is it supposed to be stretching out like this?

#LittleJewel #
Can you provide a picture? And if you’re talking about the little jewel succulent I believe it’s supposed to stay compact not stretched. Succulents stretch out when they are not getting enough sunlight. Hope this helps πŸͺ΄πŸ’š
@AguaViviente Sorry not sure why it didn’t post originally. It’s in my sunniest window. I’ll have to get it a light. :(
@AguaViviente turns out that isn’t even the right species πŸ˜… it is a echeveria compressicaulis or β€œMexican hens and chicks”.
@StellaRoots awesome, tbh I personally don’t have this one, hehe it’s on my wishlist. But it looks to be blooming. The actual echeveria is compact, the blooms usually grow out really long @sarahsalith any thoughts?
Thanks for the tag, @AguaViviente

My Ghost plant used to look like your plant, Kristine. It grew weird arms, flowered, and kept on growing!οΏΌ
Oh, and while succulents do stretch out when they are not getting enough sun, this particular plant ends up sort of vining.οΏΌ

There was another post this morning asking a similar question. Let me see if I can find it.οΏΌοΏΌ
