Water & Light Recommendations

Watering Indoors: Instead of providing your succulents with frequent sips of water, it's better to give them a thorough soaking until water drains out from the pot's drainage holes. Ensure to remove any excess water in the saucer, as succulents dislike sitting in standing water. Allow the soil to completely dry out before watering again.

Watering Outdoors: During summer, water your succulents every two weeks, soaking them and letting the soil dry before watering again. In winter, water them once a month.
