Where should I keep my Succulents?
Succulents are most happy in direct sunlight.
This doesn’t mean that you’ll need to keep them outside in the sun all day. In fact, succulents are quite happy to hang out inside the home in a well sunlit room or outside on a balcony that has access to partial sun.
If you don’t have a well-lit room, but still want to show off your succulent pots indoors, make sure that you regularly place the pots outside where they can be in sun for at least a few hours a week to ensure they continue to thrive.
When should you water succulents?
Succulents don’t need to be watered very often – maybe a light watering once per week in very dry regions, or once every fortnight/month for cooler regions.
If you are using a deep pot you can water less often as the extra potting mix will hold water longer than a shallow pot.
If the topsoil feels wet or moist then you’ll not need to worry about watering for a few days. If it’s dry, give the soil a light watering. Be sure not to water the tops of the plants as this can introduce rot.
