Hey guys!

Got this ghost plant succulent about two weeks ago. It was rained on for a bit, but nothing concerning.

I watered it two days ago and I notice that one leaf is looking withered. I see another leaf is slowly withering too.

Anyone know a thing or two about this?

I know that some of my succulents lose their lowest leaves like that too but thankfully it’s been just 1-2 leaves per plant and doesn’t persist. I think it has to do with excessive water/humidity but I’m not quite sure.

Thanks! That’s what the app said too but I just wasn’t too sure. I don’t water the plant often. Guess I’ll play the waiting game :)

An overwatered plant may develop translucent over filled leaves that eventually wrinkle and fall off. Normally the old lower leaves will just go to dry and wrinkly. Hope that makes sense.

Chop those leafs and start watering just a few drops every day for a week and then back regular twice a week water schedule

\*once or twice a week
