Everyone says that having succulents is easy... and yet I always seem to kill mine. While it may just be bad luck (or bad succulents), I took to the Internet to find out how to improve my succulent green thumb.

If you're a fellow succulent killer, these tips and tricks are for you!

Note: These tips are mostly for those of us who grow our succulents indoors.

How often do I water my succulents?

Try watering at least once a week. Be sure to completely wet the soil, and then allow them to dry out completely. Don't water daily and don't use a spray bottle!

1. Succulents like dry air.

2. SUCCULENTS LOVE SUN.

Repeat after me: SUCCULENTS. LOVE. SUN. They're desert plants, after all! Make sure to give them as much sun as possible.

3. Not all succulents are alike.

Some like the indoors, some like the outdoors. If you've got dying succulents, maybe it's time to try a different kind! Check out your local nursery to see the different varieties.

4. Start green.

Green succulents like the indoors better. Gray, blue, and purple succulents -- while amazingly pretty -- are more likely to prefer the outdoors.

5. Give them air!

Outdoors, succulents do well in crowded spaces. Indoors, however, make sure to space them apart so they get maximum sunlight.

Tips and Tricks:

Like the cactus look? Try getting an agave or aloe plant; they like the indoors, especially if they're next to a bright window.
