Where? Was this a project?
I raise succulents...no problem....
I raise succulents...no problem... stick your finger as far down as possible... if soil very dry.....time to water..
I have just one and its small and in a small pot, but I let it get pretty dry before watering it, then water it from the bottom, let it soak up as much as it will then pour off what is left. It seems to work.
are they in pots? in ground? No matter-water sparingly, they need to be kept very dry and watered on soil not the plant itself. if the entire pot is dry top soil to bottom of roots it's time to water.
You can just use a spray bottle of water and spritz them every few days.
I water no more often than every 2 to 4 weeks in the summer, and about every 2 months during the winter. I prefer to water from the bottom, immersing the entire pot in water to just over the rim.
