Micro Was it tap water or rain water? If It's rain water I would say, no worries because I'm sorry to admit I've used pots with no drainage holes and durring the raining season they sat in rain water for weeks with no problems, I know It's not recommended.

If tap water they can maybe get by if planted in the ground so long as soil has good drainage, keep ur eyes on them they might need to be pulled out of the ground and left out to dry.

They were in pots with tap water ... two of them since have dried out 50 % according to my moisture meter (surprisingly fast o_o) but the aloe is still pretty much 80-90 % wet ... i think it is time for a soil change anyway since that one still has 3 year old dirt

Yeah, cuz I understand Aloes aren't very much into wet soil and soggy conditions , new soil sounds like a good plan and the roots will probrobly sound like this afterwards, Awwww....

So i resoiled the dirt recently and luckily the aloes roots didnt rot! I think i did hear a little awwwww coming from them ;)

I also repotted the astrophytum ... it was in one of those pots with the attached water catcher thing, and it got plugged with dirt! I didnt want to plant it in that pot anymore, so i put it in a plastic pot, inside that one, so hopefully that helps ...

Didnt have enough time to check euphorbia horrida, as it got dark, so lets see if that is ok tomorrow ...

I just lost a plant due to wet soil. I stuck my finger in the top and it was dry so it got watered two weeks in a row. Looked at it yesterday and it looked sick. It wasn't sick. It was dead. Sopping wet roots. The sun dried the top out, but I just didn't check deep enough into the pot. Live and learn.
