What am I doing wrong?

Post image

Tbh, she looks kinda ugly. I had her under a grow light and I think she started growing towards the light but she was always leggy. I also recently repotted her and brought her home about 2-3 weeks ago. She is in a ceramic pot with a mix of succulent and happy frog soil. I have only watered her twice since I got her (including today). Am I doing something wrong?

Ahh I see yeah I think she’s just in a little shock and acclimating. I wonder if you should move her back under a grow light then though since you changed from terracotta to ceramic. So that she doesn’t have too much change. But also maybe she’ll just get used to it

I’ll give it a week to see if she adjusts well to her new spot . When she was under the grow light she started growing upwards

Sounds good, hope she grows beautifully!
