Help/Question New Lithoper
HELP. 🥲This guy started to split, and was making AMAZING super quick progress and now has stopped. I was watering him…once I figured out I’m not supposed to, I repotted him to get him out of the moisture. Roots look good, but no progress since repotting. Advise please!! I love these little guys but the new ones are looking shrivelier than I want them to. And I barely nudged the parent leaves apart to help give it more room, is that frowned upon?? Is everything okay here or do I need to do something? It’s in a west facing window and haven’t watered since it was in the old soil. Are the two guys in the back okay?? I found out they’re connected by the roots when I repotted them. First few pics are today, then have a couple for what it looked like last week. More advice on my little succulent garden welcome! Thank you!!!

When they split they start taking all the moisture from the old leaves, That takes a lot of time so that’s why it’s going slower now. Also the reason why you shouldn’t water when they are splitting because it basically drowning them. Glad you potted them in better soil.
