My jade plant looks burned. Has brown spots on leaves. Just moved it outside, wondering if sun is too strong?

Probably so…they are a succulent, so they contain a lot of water. At our house today, it would have ‘boiled’.

How hot is “boiled”? Gets sunny and relatively warm near giants ballpark in SF… so how much sun/shade do you give your succulents?

I was being a bit silly by saying “boiled”. What I meant was that when it’s very hot, full days of sun can be exhausting for plants, especially succulents.
