Succulent not watered for two months grew leggy and crooked, luckily there's a solution

I grow my Haworthia cooperi entirely on natural conditions and don't water it at all now. When there's a heavy rainstorm, the wind blows some in and it gets a little splash. It's been nearly two months without watering, and it's not just leggy, it's also crooked. It's grown so leggy that even its "own mother" wouldn't recognize it, it's gone completely off the charts. I have plenty of ways to deal with it

Insufficient light combined with overwatering is the most common cause of leggy stems and leaves in succulents. Succulents generally need ample light to grow strong and healthy. When light is insufficient, the rate of photosynthesis drops, the water absorbed by the succulent cannot be consumed in time, and this causes the stems and leaves to stretch out rapidly.

Summer-growing succulents are in their growth period during summer and should be given plenty of sunlight, otherwise the plants easily become leggy. In particular, the fleshy stems of succulents in the Cactaceae and Euphorbiaceae families become thin and elongated due to insufficient light, and this is hard to reverse. For succulents that have already grown leggy, there are plenty of ways to deal with them. If you want them to return to peak appearance, the only option is beheading. A pot is essential; you can choose a slightly larger clay pot to avoid the new plants not fitting, and the bottom of the pot must have holes so that water drains out promptly when watering, which prevents root rot.

Acidic soil can change the color of the leaves, so if you add a little bit of white vinegar when watering normally, it can actually change the soil's pH, giving the leaves a chance to change color. A environment with ample light is most favorable for the growth of this type of plant, but during the midsummer afternoon when temperatures are above 35°C, intense direct sunlight can still damage some delicate varieties, so they should be shaded appropriately.

Succulents prefer a slightly dry environment. In the early stage of leaf propagation, before roots have formed, there is no need to water. Normally you can mist around the leaves to keep the surrounding air moist. After roots form, sprinkle water promptly and in appropriate amounts.
