Any suggestions on what to do with these guys? I grouped them together because they’re showing similar issues. The bottom leaves are shriveling up and dropping off. The big one is a cotyledon, the two smaller are kolanchoes, and the last one is a molekenisis (I think). I’m not normally a great succulent owner, so I’ve been following planta’s advice. Most of my other succulents are doing fine, but these ones are struggling. Any help appreciated!
I’m not great with identifying diseases and stuff, but here are some theories/suggestions: 1. Overwatering 2. Not enough sunlight 3. Temperature (they’re best at 45-109 degrees Fahrenheit) 4. Pot is too small 5. No drainage

My succulents used to do that a lot, it happened less/stopped with more frequent watering, though I also have one that will drop bottom leaves and keep growing on top no matter how much I water. The wrinkling of the base leaves looks like underwatering, but I would be very careful not to water unless the top soil is fully dry. Good luck!
0 likesThank you, I probably am under watering, the soils does dry out quickly and completely, so I think planta’s advice must be too infrequent.
