Hello! I’m completely new to plants and I have thease 4 little baby’s I looooove, I wanna learn how to take care of them. They get 8-10 hours of sunlight each day and currently (trying to remember) to get watered once a week for each one, they where fine when I got them and also a week ago but now idk what to do about them. I think I skipped a watering day???

    hi, welcome to the community!! all of the plant here except for the last one pictured are succulants and will quickly die from being consistantly moist - they prefer drier climates and soils, with lots of light! i suggest repotting into a chunkier, well draining mix, typically soil mixed with a lot of amendments - perlite, vermiculite, sand, orchid bark, coco chips, etc. (pot size should only be about 1-2 inches bigger than the root ball; having excess soil can cause the plant to sit in wet soil for longer than it wants, also leading to root rot!) youtube has some great informative videos on the basics. if you dont know where to start, a fav plant channel of mine is Plants with Krystal! allow the plants to fully dry out before watering - there will be signs your plant wants water. most succulants' leaves will start to get lightly wrinkly and squishy. when you water, water thoroughly! the first pictured is some sort of snake plant, which can tolerate lower lighting conditions, but a lot of bright light is advised. the second one in the terracotta pot seems to be a mother of thousands, or a kalanchloe. i dont know much about these guys, but a google search should help plenty :) the third one looks like some sort of echevaria. give lots of direct light - otherwise the plant will etoliate or stretch out looking for light. and the last plant pictured im guessing is a tradescantia of sorts. this is more of a tropical plant that (im pretty sure) can be grown in water. they propogate in soil really easily as well, and seem to be pretty resiliant! hope this helps, and good luck!!
