(pictures of my sempervivum from all sides)
Alright this is going to be pretty in-depth because I want to give you guys as much info as possible to try and help me!
So my boyfriend got me a sempervivum for my birthday, and he doesn't really know what healthy succulents look like, so he picked me one that was pretty pale. I put it in soil specifically for cacti and drilled a hole in the little bowl I put it in (5/16" hole) so it could drain properly. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be getting any better and it doesn't seem to be growing any chicks that I could propogate with.
The problems I'm having are:
- The leaves on the bottom are pointing downward meaning that they aren't easy to keep dry because they're actually digging down into the soil.
- I tried to put my plant out on my porch so it could get enough light, but it seemed to get sunburns so I stopped putting it in direct sunlight during midday when the sun is high.
- I have an LED grow light inside and I've been using that to try to get the sempervivum to perk up, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Please help me. I really want to keep this alive since it came from my boyfriend and it's special to me.
