Jade question! What can I do to improve this?

It is a rescue that was super leggy. I repotted and pruned heavily in the spring. I'm VERY pleased with how much new growth has appeared, and overall there's been a lot of improvement!

BUT, these bigger leaves just don't look very happy. I can't tell if they're truly drooping or just trying to angle themselves toward the window? But they look like they are moping.

Am I worrying too much or is there something I can try to perk them up? I'm trying not to overwater, but it is entirely possible that I still haven't gotten the hang of it.

(In case you can see the water in the saucer -- isn't normally wet like that! I just watered.)

in my experience jade’s leaves point downwards when they’re not getting enough light. i had this happen to a few of mine when i left it in its summer location a bit too long, the autumn light had her drooping.

I agree, it needs more light. Place him right next to the window
