I have never owned a succulent before. I left it on my window for 3 days in the sun, and watered it a little each day, later realising that I probably should not have done that, is there any way the plant is recoverable, will the yellow leaves fall off, is the whole plant doomed now? I dont really know what I am doing and don’t want him to die, any help is really appreciated thankyou🙏.

    It’s got pretty bad sunburn, and it’s going to get rot if you don’t replace the soil and correct your watering routine.

    But that said, I don’t think there’s any lethal damage yet. Get it out of the sun for now, get it repotted into succulent mix (1 part cactus potting soil, 1-2 parts pumice or perlite) and start watering more deeply but much less often — soak it, let the soil dry completely, and wait at least another week before thinking about watering again. In a month maybe you can start to increase the sun GRADUALLY over a week to a moderate level.
