By dying do you mean browning? Or dark mushy spots? Smells atrocious?

Browning, i haven't noticed a smell

If there is still green on it, it may be fine. I'd just get back on a water schedule. It's so hard to tell with them if they're coming back, since they are such slow growers.

Ok thanks! Have a blessed day 😊
