I'm completely new to gardening; I've recently had an existential crisis that has manifested in trying to bring nature into our tiny apartment home.

I bought a little #echeveria at the supermarket today. It's particularly droopy, would this be from lack of water or from too much water? #succulents #help

This is a pretty one. Was it in a hot car? @alovealoe may be the one to answer this for you.

It was for a few hours. But it was droopy before that, and it was in a cool grocery store

Supermarket staff generally don't know how to care for succulents. It's probably a combination of no sunlight and improper care causing the drooping. Gradually acclimate it to sunlight and hold off on watering for about a week.
