Succulent Plants

My grow lights are working well, maybe a little too well?


Is this Echeveria Agavoides too stressed?

It's of course dark and rainy most of the time here in the uk now it's mid October.

I turn the grow lights off if it's a bright sunny day however but it's like 80% dark and rainy atm xddd

    I think it looks nice and it hasn’t affected the texture of the leaves so I think it’s fine

    I doubt it because direct sun can get into the tens of thousands of footcandles. What wattage is the light and have you measured the footcandles or lux where the plant is? I would be surprised if it’s getting over 3k footcandles.

    It looks like your Echeveria is getting a lot of light, maybe even too much. When the tips of the leaves turn red or curl, it could mean that the plant is stressed. Turn down the grow lights or put something in the shade when it’s hot outside.
