Over-watered succulents: symptoms & solutionsUpdated 3 years ago

Symptoms

• Going soft
• Becoming mushy and wet
• Turning a translucent yellow or brown
• Shedding soggy upper leaves near the center of the rosette

Solutions

• Immediately reduce watering frequency and allow soil to fully dry out
• Move into a location with slightly more sunlight and good ventilation
• Remove leaves that are already mushy and translucent
• If problem persists, remove plant from soil, allow to dry 3-5 days, and re-plant in well-draining soil with a less frequent watering schedule
