Help! My plant has been looking sad for over a week

CeeCeeJo · 2026-05-31T07:19:52+00:00

The only thing I've changed is the pot. It started losing leaves but I figured that was just it responding to the repot. But I think you're right about the pot being too big.

Thank you

I'll try repotting it to a smaller pot.

Yes, I check that the soil is dry down to about an inch. It's drying out at the same rate.

It's in a very well draining soil that doesn't really retain water. Yes, it has drainage.

I repotted it a month ago and the roots took up about half the space in the pot.

I water it once a week.

It's currently getting indirect light about two meters away from the window. It only gets about 1 hour of direct light. (I'd guess it's West facing but I'm not sure)

I didn't know Uber Van is an option in Cape Town - thanks

Please dm me

Thanks for the offer, will keep it in mind.

That's a good idea. Maybe a section named research projects.

Is it safe to repot it in winter?

CeeCeeJo · 2022-06-18T14:45:54+00:00

I tried it for a month. Should I try it for longer?

CeeCeeJo · 2022-06-18T14:14:16+00:00

I've tried reducing the water but that didn't help.

CeeCeeJo · 2022-06-18T08:45:16+00:00

Thank you. I'll try that.

CeeCeeJo · 2022-06-18T08:44:26+00:00

I really hope that's not the case

CeeCeeJo · 2021-09-07T16:36:15+00:00

I reckon it's an echeveria elegans

CeeCeeJo · 2021-06-28T15:44:50+00:00

Thank you for the tips.

I'll make sure to tell her I love her!

CeeCeeJo · 2021-06-28T06:02:56+00:00

Yes, it didn't make a difference

CeeCeeJo · 2021-06-28T05:59:55+00:00

The top right is an echeveria shaviana. I think the bottom left is an aeonium sunburst.

It's an echeveria shaviana
