    Your succulent is floppy and losing leaves because of common issues like overwatering, underwatering, inadequate light, or poor soil. To help it, check the soil moisture and wait to water until it's dry; ensure it gets bright, indirect light for several hours daily; and confirm your soil is well-draining, re-potting into a suitable mix if it isn't.

      My Pearle Von Nürnberg the bottom leaves we're kind of doing this it said it liked full sun and I was wondering because it's in the window if possible the ones that say they like full sun would actually prefer a little indirect bright light instead 🤔 cuz it's really just the bottom leaves on her the top half looks good

    Diagnose the Problem: • Soft, Mushy, and Yellowing Leaves: This usually indicates overwatering. The leaves become soggy and eventually drop off as they rot. o • Wrinkled, Crispy, and Dry Leaves: This is a sign of underwatering. The leaves have lost too much moisture and are shriveling. o • Leggy Growth (Thin, Stretched-Out Appearance): This happens from inadequate light. The plant is reaching for a light source, causing it to grow tall and spindly. o • Poorly Draining Soil: If the soil stays wet for too long, it can lead to root rot and other issues.

    How to Help Your Succulent: 1. Adjust Watering: • For Overwatering: Stop watering and let the soil dry out completely. Ensure the pot has drainage holes. o • For Underwatering: Water thoroughly until the soil is moist but not soggy. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. o 2. Check the Light: • For Leggy Growth: Move the plant to a location that receives at least six hours of bright, indirect sunlight daily. o 3. Improve the Soil: • For Poor Drainage: Re-pot your succulent into a soil mix specifically formulated for succulents or cacti. This mix will be well-draining and prevent water from sitting around the roots. o 4. Remove Dead Leaves: • Gently remove any wilted, yellowed, or dead leaves from the plant to prevent rot and redirect energy to new growth. 5. Monitor for Pests: • Check the plant for any signs of pests, which can also contribute to weakness and leaf loss.
