I have started to use artificial fertiliser instead of organic one which immensely boosted growth but now results in more greenish growth at a faster rate with slight stretching towards light. I hope in spring I can bring them outside to make room for the next generation of hybrids.

The issue is the fertilizer, it sounds like. Succs typically grow in poor conditions already and do do just fine without fertilizer- that’s the fun part. Less water and nutrients help keep that compact and chubby look, in addition to proper lighting.
What’s the NPK ratio of your fertilizer? I’ve heard succulents need a lot less nitrogen, and succulent specific fertilizer often reduces or even eliminates it. I use a two part fertilizer that lets me adjust the ratio, and dilute it quite a lot.
When can I order one 😭😭 lmao just kidding…for now 🤣 I can’t wait till my hobby is on your level 👌🏽😍
Time to boost them up so they’re closer to the lights!
