I saw some sad succulents peeking out of a large bin at the store today. Apparently they had to clear the old stock from the shelves as those have been neglected for the past months.
They gave me permission to look into it and I ended up taking 80% of em out of the bin 🥹
I washed most of the dirt on top and there is no pests or fungus. Some have scarring and blisters from edema, some are etiolated, some have few leaves left from drought as I removed the dried up ones.
I already own a few succulents, however I'm not sure if I want to plant them individually as there is about a hundred.
Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Send me some! I will individually plant som happily!
The succulent gods have chosen you.
Wow what a great find, you could always make some arrangements with multiple in one pot, and save ya from repotting all individually! Then just neglect them and they will love you the most
You could do an arrangement of different ones or I’d do whole pots of same ones. You have so many, your pots would get very full.
I’d do different arrangements with similar types of succulents- combine 5, but make some variety in the pot or do all 5 or 7 or more – uneven numbers usually look a bit more aesthetically pleasing than even numbers when potted up.
Don’t overwhelm yourself as going from a few to 100 is quite a journey. Get some good “soil mixture” and pot them up. I enjoy adding crystals or rocks to mine as well. It just matters the style and sorts what speaks to me with the plants. I wish you all the best! Come back for any questions or ID requests. You’ve got this though! ✨💗💚
