I was given 3 Sempervivums as a gift a few months ago, very small, super cute. I've been trying to take care of them, but I'm afraid I failed.
I have them in a glass bowl... terrible, I know :(. In the bowl I got a layer of sand, a layer of moss, activated carbon pallets, potting soil (sand and regular soil) and pebbles on top. I water them about once a week. I keep them in my west facing room, no direct sunlight unfortunatelly, but I have blue, red and violet led stripes right next to them.
What happened is that they grew a lot, but the leaves turned downwards and the plant lost a little bit of color. I removed the pebbles and checked the soil, it was dry enough and the roots are not rotting. I gently squeezed the leaves, they seem "fat", but not rotting. No parasites, as far as I can tell.
Any suggestion what went wrong? Why do my plants look so miserable? :(
