Kell & Bob, I am wondering if you ever water these sensitive plants with small amounts of water? For example: I have a couple 6" pots which I set in a tray and was thinking of watering them with 1/2 cup from the bottom, like African Violets. Or maybe pour 1/2 cup along one side of the outside edge of their pots, slowly, so it won't get the stem too wet. I know the water will move thru the soil and was hoping maybe less would end up at the stem. I have lost so many plants because of the humid climate I live in. I know I should just give up on growing some types of succulents, but, where is the challenge in that?
