I just repotted my succulents. Do I water them again. Som...

I usually wait to water u til the bottom to middle leaves start getting a little squishy and flimsy.
wait a week after repotting to water so that any wounds acquired during the repotting process have time to heal. open wounds + wet soil = rot. dont spray them, they really really reallyyyyyy do not like to be sprayed. to water them, either place the pots into a bowl of water (the water line should be below the rims of the pots), and leave them in there until the top of the soil is wet (the water will travel upwards through the soil). if you dont wanna do that: just pour water into the soil until water starts coming out of the pot's drainage hole. dont get water onto the succulent itself. if water does end up on the succulent, dry it off. standing water causes rot. every time you water, you should be completely soaking the soil. like the other comment said, wait until the leaves are flimsy (and thinner than usual) to water. or wait until they start wrinkling, if you wanna play it safe. never ever water if the soil isnt already dry all the way through
