    I figured, I’d get one of those standard issue succulents, because they’re supposed to be easy to care for, and now it decided to grow a 30 cm stalk, when the rest of the plant is just 5 cm tall.

    Like, what the hell, dude. Am I supposed to cut it off? I don’t even know what kind of succulent it is, so I can’t look it up either. I’ve just been letting it grow and hoping that it doesn’t entwine my whole place. 🫠

      You can still read up on succulents in general, they all have similar needs

      You can get plant ID apps on mobile. If it’s leggy, it probably is trying to find sun. You can prune/trim it, even propogate, just need to make sure you look up how that works.
