" to learn how to save your succulents from falling leaf. Have any of your leaves been falling out and you still don't know why? You should limit the amount of sunlight they receive, just like the rainforests. Join our Succulent City Plant Lounge Facebook Group to share your experiences, tips, and photos. You can map out when your plants need water and when they're done. Don't be afraid, give your plant a drink of water. Allow the water to reach the roots of your plant so it can absorb the nutrients from the root. I let the cuttings air dry for about a day before placing them in the pot.
