Im new to plants... I have a spider plant, a money plant, a goldfish plant and a mezoo. I fear I over watered them... my spider plant has some long leaves that are dropping and mt money plant is dropping. Do I just leave them alone until they dry out or should I get new dirt? They're damp to touch not sopping.
Let the dirt dry out and allow the plant to get more sun if they aren’t both getting 6+ hours of sunlight a day. Afterwards, definitely add some perlite or something similar for more aeration if it’s not drying up fast enough in its original spot

Best early plant parent tip for me was that an UNDERWATERED plant is easier to save than an OVERWATERED plant. Get a water meter OR just buy some cheap wooden skewers (the kind for kabobs) and use that to tell you if your plant needs water. As a CHRONIC overwaterer when I started, those tools helped me to not water until my plants were almost all the way dry. Once dry - soak them thru until water comes out the bottom. Also, just use nursery pots (clear are best) and put them inside pretty cache pots. It’s so much easier!!!!
