My moonstone has a brown spot and also lost a few leaves a few weeks ago. What should I do to make it healthier?

    As what a cute succulent. It looks like your soil has a lot of coir or something else that’s dense. Your succulents will prefer soil with chunky bits such as perlite, pumice, and sand. It might be experiencing root rot if the soil isn’t able to dry out fast enough. Root rot could cause leaves to drop

    Do you reckon it might be a bad idea to put these three together

      I think they should be alright since they’re all succulents. However, if you put them into planta and find that they have very different watering recommendations, then maybe they should be separated

    This plant needs a LOT of light. I’m in south texas, we’ve had 100+ degrees weather for months, and this is about the only plant thriving outside 🫠 I would separate them from the other two, as their light needs are different. Pot it alone and gradually increase the light.
