Hi! I am not too familiar with that specific plant but I can offer some general succulent advice. I would go ahead and repot. You can go with Als gritty mix, which is what several of us use. But if you only have the one plant it is a bit of work and expense for one plant. Runner up is cactus and succulent soil and perlite or pumice mixed half and half (maybe a little heavier on the perlite or pumice). I wouldn't water until after the repot. And don't water for 1-2 weeks after the repot. The roots will need to heal and if you water too soon you will likely get rot. Also, make sure the new pot has good drainage, and get all the old soil off the roots when you repot.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

This plant needs a better groundmix and much more light.

It does look like some of the leaves are becoming a bit etiolated, meaning they are stretching and searching for light. A south facing always preferable if they must remain inside. If you aren't reaching temperatures below 40 degrees, even overnight, it would be much happier outside, in which case you would need to slowly acclimate it to the sun exposure.

If you have it in a room with a humidifier running I would suggest watering it less often than recommended as succulents generally do not thrive in humid conditions.

I am also not too familiar with Haworthia so I am not positive about how frequently to water in indoor winter conditions.

Deva left very good advice about how to repot, and you will definitely need to repot this plant. It doesn't look like the pot it came in has a drainage hole. This is generally a must for succulents, or any plants for that matter. You do not want the roots sitting in any water that built up because there was no where else for it to go.

Thank you everyone for your advice! :) I did attempt to water it early this morning (before reading the posts), but since that probably was a mistake I'll remove the existing soil and let the plant rest before putting it in a new medium and pot. I don't think I will be able to give my plant adequate light until the Summer months, so hopefully I don't accidentally kill it during this repot process. Fingers crossed!

Well, good job on researching and reading up! I myself would guess you may have a H. cymbiformis hybrid. While I have a cymbiformis hybrid or two, I just adore the cooperi clan... glad the bug bit you as well. Below is one of my H. cooperi var. cooperi, and it shows the diversity in leaf shape and that longer leaves is not necessarily an indicator of lacking light. But smart of you to observe that changes in a single plant's leaf shape do mean something! Insufficient light is the reason behind your plant's stretching leaves, or their looking less plump, as you observed. I don't know quite how best to explain the signs of underwatering--it can be a flattening or slight withering of the leaves, and you can just tell the difference once you've seen it. I think you'll just know. Outdoors, bright light or bright shade is the sweet spot. In direct sun the plant will redden due to stress (a temporary change, so not something to freak you out). Indoors, do provide as much light as you can get because indoor light, even direct light, is extremely deceiving and does not compare to even a shaded outdoor area. Mine are actually indoors; it can be done. And yes, probably a very good thing to add a great deal of pumice or perlite or other well-draining materials to your currently heavy soil mix. Good luck! These Haws will put up with quite a few care mistakes, so I know they were a good first plant love for me when I was very new.

ctreeteac, lovely lovely shot of the translucence of your gorgeous plants leaves.

haworthiacooperi, You have a lovely haw. Beautiful translucent leaves. I love the fat leaves of this genus.
A little bit of my experience.
I'm in S. California. I've had mine for about a year and they've survived their first winter in my garden. I understand they go dormant if too cold or too hot. I'm still learning about these delightful plants. Well, my haws kept putting out leaves and pups during last fall and all through winter. I figure if they are pushing out growth then they are active and they are taking up water. When I do water them I let the mix get dry before the next water. In colder weather it takes longer for the mix to dry out, but, I continued watering throughout winter.
I do make sure to avoid splashing water in the center of the plant - a carry over from growing orchids - I don't want to risk crown rot in cold temps.
I think to mediate cloudy day watering, just drench the mix and make sure no water stays on the centers of the plant before evening.

Here are my babies

I hope your Haworthia is better now!
