Succulents perform best when their soil dries between waterings. If they remain in wet or waterlogged soils, succulents suffer from edema, which causes brown, corky spots on the leaves. Sometimes the spots form on the undersides of leaves, making it more difficult to notice this disorder.Click to see full answer. Also asked, what are the black spots on my succulents?Black spots are generally caused by over-watering, sunburn, or sometimes bugs. The spots won’t go away. Once a succulent leaf is damaged or scarred, the only way to hide the spot is to remove the leaves with spots. If the black spots are dry, it’s most likely caused by sunburn.Likewise, what does a dying succulent look like? While dead leaves at the bottom of your succulent are perfectly healthy, dead leaves on the upper parts of new growth are a sign of a problem–usually over- or under-watering. If your plant’s leaves are starting to look yellow and transparent, and feel soggy or mushy to the touch, it’s likely suffered from overwatering. Moreover, how do you treat fungus on succulents? Mildew can be treated. Remove any leaves that have become infected. Some people have found that milk diluted with water and applied to the plant has been effective, as well as baking soda mixed with dish soap and water. Be careful when applying baking soda to your succulents, as repeated exposure can burn leaves.Should you remove dead leaves from succulents?Succulent plants often need pruning just like any other kind of garden favorites, for size control, to shape them better, or to propagate them for more plants. And though most succulents can seal off damaged parts, it is always good to quickly remove broken, diseased, or dead leaves, stems and flower stalks.
