Signs of Cold Stress in Truncate living stone
Symptoms
Truncate living stone cannot withstand extremely low temperatures. It flourishes optimally when temperatures range from 65℉ to 70℉. In winter, it needs to be maintained above 60℉. If the temperature drops below 50℉, its foliage will show water-soaked decay and droop. For minor frost damage, initial signs might be absent, but within a week, leaves will severely wilt and eventually detach.
Solutions
Cut away the frost-damaged sections. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting or construct a temporary greenhouse for thermal insulation. When indoors, position it near a south-facing window for sufficient light. In a makeshift greenhouse, ensure good air circulation to prevent plant deterioration from inadequate airflow.

Symptoms
In summer, Truncate living stone should be kept below 70℉. When temperatures surpass 75℉, the plant will enter dormancy and is more susceptible to rot in humid conditions.
Solutions
Remove any dry or decayed portions. Transfer the plant to a location with partial shade, shielding it from direct sun exposure during midday and afternoon. Cease watering until the weather cools down.
