   Would you be able to attach photos of the string of pearls and mother of thousands? That might help others narrow down what might be troubling your plants. 👍

   Don’t have mother of thousands so can’t comment but I do have string of pearls. From my research and experience, you need fast draining soil, let it dry out between waterings, and provide very bright light, maybe even morning sun. Keep in mind also that their root system is very shallow, consequently use a shallow planter. Signal to water is when the little “window” on the pearls closes.

     Give it more light. It looks elongated and has lost leaves. That was how my two 3” wide plants looked after being under a weak grow light. My photo collage shows the two sun stressed plants I bought in late 2023. They overwintered under a weak grow light and lost their color. They became elongated and lost leaves by spring 2024. They looked like yours until I moved them outside to 18” wide pots. They get about 5 hours of direct morning sunlight and shade from the house the rest of the day. That’s not enough light to burn color into them. But, it’s enough light to make them flourish. They more than tripled in size. I recommend adding a strong grow light close to the plant. Run it at least 14 hours a day. Better yet, put it in a south or west window to get the best light. A north window has too little light. An east window is ok but the window glass and bug screen, if any, will filter out too much sunlight. 🪴🍀
