I went to get some cactus soil to set these guys up again as well as all of my other cacti and succulents in insuitable soil, but they hadn't any. I read online somewhere that when the tips of the leaves start to go red, its a sign roots are about to come so hopefully I can get some soil before they shoot out!

I'm having a go at propergating succulents and im starting to wonder if the conservatory I'm keeping in them is getting too hot and drying the soil out too quickly. If I spray at 08:30 and my midday theyre bone dry again!

sarajordan2993: @cclecombe - not a problem , anything i can do to help 😊
cclecombe: @sarajordan2993 Ah! Thank you so much! That's really helpful. I'll grab some different soil tomorrow and start over!
meriunkat: 😅 the same thing is happening to mine, but don't worry they don't need to be wet too often when you begin propagating, only spray water after you see them growing roots so it won't rot right now.
sarajordan2993: do they already have roots ? it looks like they dont , but my eyes are horrible . firstly , dont water them until you start to notice roots . when they start to root , only water maybe 2 times per week . succulents dont like a lot of water as we all know , so cuttings wont be any different . i noticed also that you may have them in peat moss ?? if so , peat moss is very known for retaining moisture & squeezing the air out of the soil; therefore, creating an unhealthy environment for any type of plants . your best bet is to get a regular potting soil (miracle gro, etc) & mix equal parts of that with perlite & sand . ( 1 part soil , 1 part perlite , 1 part sand ) . i really hope this helped!

Ueca: Image 1 appears to be Haworthia attenuata from the angle. Image 2 is Echeveria elegans. The first one is happy with indirect light but the second one prefers more sun.
tiny_forest: The first one is an Aloe and I'll search about the second one. Water every week (when the soil is dry) and give them indirect sunlight:)

added a little bit more moss to my little garden in hopes it will spread and make it look more... alive and natural 😍 I want to one day have a garden sweeping with moss and succulents. Moss was my childhood napping bed 💜

meriunkat: @Missysunflo okay good, try to give them less sun now that they will be trying to recover
Missysunflo: there's drainage holes on the bottom of the planters, i them out fully in the sun. I watered them every other day at first, now i water them when the soil is dry.
meriunkat: Also do those pots have drainage holes?
meriunkat: They should have indirect sun and gradually let them adjust to the sunlight, usually I water mine till I see the soil dry which can be every three days.
meriunkat: How much sunlight are they exposed to? how many times do you water them per week?
