These came in the mail recently. Slight squish, but a leather dehydrated squish, not rotten fruit squish.

Planted in mostly rocks, with a sprinkle of succulent soil, topped by a layer of just rocks.

Was going to wait a week and given the a brief water from below. Thought?

    Give it a soak for a few hours in some distilled water! It will help wake the roots up.

    Since you’ve already potted it, I would bottom water the pot with distilled water and allow the water line to meet the roots for a few hours. Then allow it to dry out good for a week, then water and see if it’s receptive to the water. If it doesn’t plump up a day or two after the 2nd watering, do another bottom watering soak for a couple hours and repeat. It should be fine after the first or second soak.
