If they start to get too much sun however the leaves will actually burn. You may begin to notice white or pale patches on the succulent leaves. This damage cannot be repaired. Try to move your plant to an area with less hot, direct sunlight and wait for new growth to take its place.
If you can’t find a place to grow your succulents, you may want to consider planting them in a greenhouse. Sunflowers can be grown from seed or cuttings. The best time to plant them is in the spring or early summer, when the sun is at its highest.
They can also be planted in late summer or fall, but be sure to keep them away from the heat of the summer sun. It is also a good idea to cover the plant with a layer of mulch to help keep it cool during the hot summer months.

How often should succulents be watered?
I don’t know how often to water my plant. You should water your succulents every other week during non-winter months when temperatures are above 40 degrees. You should only water your Succulent once a month in the winter because it is too cold for it to survive.
If you want to keep your plant healthy, you need to make sure that it gets plenty of light and water. You can do this by placing the plant in a sunny window, or you can place it in an area that gets a lot of direct sunlight, such as a window sill.
If the sun is not strong enough to reach the leaves, then you will have to use a watering can with a small hole in the bottom. The water will then evaporate, leaving behind a thin layer of water on the surface. When you are done watering, remove the can from the window and let it dry out for a few hours before watering again.
Should I cut the brown tips off my succulent?
Brown tips are a symptom of something not right. The issue could be overwatering, underwatering, lack of nutrients, over-fertilization, transplant shock, or pests and diseases. One way to do this is to remove the tips from the stem. This will prevent the roots from absorbing water and nutrients. You can also cut them off with tweezers or a pair of pliers.
If you are cutting the stems off, be sure to use a sharp knife or scissors to make sure you do not cut into the root system. Also, keep in mind that if you cut off too much, you will not be able to water your plants as much as you would like. It is best to leave at least 2-3 inches of stem on the top of your plant to allow for water to flow through the plants roots.

You can do this by adding a few drops of distilled water to the soil at the bottom of your pot. This will help the plant grow faster and will also help it retain more moisture.
Can succulents handle high heat?
Don’t let the heat and sun damage your plants. However, heat plus sun can be deadly to succulents. Unless they’re desert cacti or agaves, most smooth-leaved succulents need sun protection in summer, especially above 40°F. If you live in a hot climate, you may want to consider using a shade cloth to protect your plants from the sun.
If you don’t have access to one of these types of cloths, it’s a good idea to cover your plant with a sheet of plastic wrap. This will keep the heat from reaching the plant, but it won’t keep it from getting sunburned.
Do succulents like heat and sun?
Despite widespread belief, most succulents do not thrive if blasted with the hottest temps and the fullest sun exposure. If the temperature hits the 80s or 90s, most Succulents need sun protection, even though they appreciate a lot of light.
