Succulent Care Guide

Succulents thrive in bright, indirect sunlight and typically need about 6 hours of light each day. While some varieties can tolerate direct sunlight, especially in the morning, too much intense sunlight can cause sunburn, leading to brown or white patches on the leaves. For indoor succulents, placing them near a window receiving light is ideal. If natural light is insufficient, using a grow light can help provide the necessary illumination. Always monitor your succulents for signs that they are not getting enough light, such as stretching (etiolation) or too much light causing sunburn.

Choosing the right soil for succulents is crucial for their health and growth. Succulents require well-draining soil that prevents water from sitting around their roots, which can lead to root rot.
