Суккулент сохнет и становится хрустящим? Что делать?
Since a lot of you guys know a lot about plants, does my little succulent guy look kind of dry and crispy? I keep it out of direct sunlight and have been misting it once a week like the instructions say. 🙈 Idk what I’m doing wrong.

It needs a little soak. Personally I prefer soaking them over misting. Soaking them for 10-20min and then drying them well so that there are not water residue laying on the leaves (or it may cause rot). A good area with bright indirect lighting. Is it glued in there or loose?

It was loose. I’ll have to keep that in mind if I ever get another one. I got a closer look and it was moldy, so I just threw it away. Maybe I’ll get a fake one to put in the adorable little yeti holder! 😂 But thanks! I’ll remember to do that if I get another one some day!

misting has a higher risk of molding due to just letting it sit with the moister as well.

Is that an air plant? Because when you say you mist it I know that was in the directions for the air plant. I personally just run it under my sink faucet with the sprayer on low and run it under there for a few seconds and then just put it back where i keep it. I haven't had any problems and ive had mine for a few months now

I dont even know what an air plant is. 🙈 But I was spraying it with a water bottle. Buuuut the poor thing was moldy, so I had to through it away, sadly. At least I can keep the cute yeti container! I’ll just put a fake plant in it! So much easier! 😂

@professor.hashbrown, Thanks! I’ll have to try that if I get another one someday!
