What is wrong?

Try watering twice a month. And fertilize.

Could be not enough water and light. When watering, plants need to be soaked all the way through, like washing your hair. Little drips of water just isn't enough. What is the plant? I'm having a difficult time identifying that shriveled leaf. Resubmit the planf name, please.

This is a succulent, pretty sure it needs much more sun.

mine are all outside and they are completely in the sunlight and very healthy...by the way, they may need that much water either...

Hi there,

Probably needs more water, and may be repot?

It's a succulent, not a cactus. Try giving it more water.

Let it dry completely between waterings, and make sure your pot and soil have good drainage.

Succulent - more sun, less water

Only water when the soil just feels dry to the touch...not before. It's a succulent and retains water in its cells.

Succulents do need a fair amount water, but they can’t sit in it. I’d water once a week, but make sure it has good drainage. It’s a myth that succulents don’t like water. It’s good advice to make sure it’s getting sun. 🌞

I’m told succulents need the equivalent of one ice cube every ten days. That’s like a spoonful. It’s probsbly getting too much water during that ‘once a month’ watering.

Bright light, less water.

Bright light and that soil could use a top dressing. Gravel or aquarium gravel or something. Where the plant touches the moist soil it can cause water damage to the plant. I had an echeveria I just had to dress for the same reason. BUT in my opinion, that looks like the wrong soil all together. Im assuming that it's still in the same soil that you purchased it in. Sometimes (in my experience) they plant in the cheapest soil, not necessarily what the plant needs. Pull it out, rinse off the roots, repot in cactus soil.

Too much water. I grow many of these in hypertufa and clay pots. Mostly I just sprinkle water on them as I am passing by. I have them on the south side of the house where it gets really hot in the summer. I give them a thorough watering about every one or two weeks, depending on the weather.

Take the whole thing to your local,plant nursery. Their experts can tell you exactly what to do or not to do. Or you could google how to care for that particular plant.

Hi.

Succulents like a loose soil and a pot that drains; no drain -- the roots rot.

If it's not getting bright sunlight it will grow but become "leggy" trying to get to the sunlight.

Happy gardening!

I agree with Bij above ^^^ They need really good drainage....and just enough water when they get thirsty. Hot hot weather and lots of sun are fine, as long as their roots don't get soggy. Test the soil with a pipe cleaner. It may feel dry on top, but the roots may be sitting in water. If the pipe cleaner is wet, leave it alone for a few days and test again. I find it works better to fold the pipe cleaner in half and twist it. It will soak up any moisture better that way to tell how the soil feels.

Just think about where these succulents grow - in the desert. They need a lot of sun and very little water. Their fleshy stems are always full of water and they can get waterlogged very easily. The sun is incredibly hot in the desert and there is very, very little rain. In fact, the native people used to cut these plants and drink from the water stored inside their stems. Somebody above said sprinkle a little here and there. Yes, just think like desert rain - sometimes it only gets 4" a year.

Looks like Stonecrop (sedum spp.) which might have wet feet. Make sure you have good drainage in that pot and thought succulents love sun they need a shot of cold weather at least once a year... they LOVE a really cool fall and will quadruple in size during that time. Got a cold spot they might like?
