You want the old leaves to dry up first - no water yet.

Thank you. The saying "If you aren't sure it needs water,well then don't water it" is kind of hard to stick to at times :)

Remember that Lithops are 90% water. It still has a lot stored in those old leaves, and that's what it should be using until it's gone.
