  • It is advisable to regularly remove dead leaves to maintain the health of the plant. If the plant becomes too long and thin, it can be pruned back to stimulate growth and maintain its shape. Make sure the plant receives enough light after pruning to promote new growth.

    Water the plant moderately, wait until the top layer of soil is dry before watering again. Make sure the pot containing the plant has drainage holes to allow excess water to drain. Avoid watering the leaves to prevent rot.

    An Echeveria in potting soil needs a well-draining mix that retains moisture while being airy. Use a cactus or succulent mix for optimal growth. Make sure the potting soil is dry before watering again to prevent root rot.

    Make sure the plant is placed in a location with an average room temperature between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Avoid large temperature fluctuations and drafts to prevent the plant from experiencing stress. It is important that the plant is not exposed to temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius.

    Indoor plants like Echeveria benefit from a humidity level between 40% and 60%. It is important to regularly check the humidity and, if necessary, increase it using a humidifier. Low humidity can lead to dehydration and issues with the plant.

    The Echeveria plant thrives best in a neutral to slightly acidic soil. A pH value between 6.0 and 7.0 is ideal for this type of plant. It is important to regularly check the acidity of the soil to ensure the plant's health.

    Houseplants like Echeveria need fertilization during the growing season. Use a special cactus or succulent fertilizer and follow the instructions on the package for the correct dosage. Only fertilize the plant during the growing season, usually from spring to fall, and avoid over-fertilizing to prevent damage to the plant.
