Watering day. This is my donkey tail. Which is in desperate need of a repot but I can’t bring myself to do it. They can be fragile and temperamental. I grow it inside year round in an east facing window.

I know how it feels! But don’t worry, if one of the leaves or stems fall off, think of it as an invitation to propagate! I’m not sure what exactly you are worried about, but I’m sure it will be fine. It will be worse for you plant to go without a repot, than to have some slight damage to the stems.

You’re right, it’s just whenever I touch it or look at it wrong the leaves fall off😖

I’m actually super scared to water mine!! But I feel like some of the leaves are shriveling so now I’m worried I have the opposite problem!!

Actually string of pearls likes a little bit more water than most succulents. If yours is outside water it once a week. Inside during the summer about every ten days and winter about every 2 weeks. All dependent on location and temperature and light 😊
