I just got 3 aloe leafs and a roots ( like a little piece not the whole stem ) in the mail. When I open it up they were soggy and dark green and droopy

so I listen to google and put it in a pot with a hole at the bottom; I use like cactus soil btw . I'm new to this so I don't know if I should damp the soil or wait a few days after attempting to regrow the plant.
Thanks so much
