They could all use several hours of morning sun. Mine get morning sun and then the grow light. For watering, soil should be totally dry. And then wait until you see signs of needing water. The leaves may wrinkle a little and the leaves will feel rubbery and bendable. It takes some practice to know when. The only problem may be that the crassula may need watering before the others. It looks like you may have a pachy, an echeveria, and a crassula. Give it a go and if it doesn’t work, you can always separate. The first pic is of some pachys and echeveria. The other two are Crassula similar to yours. Notice the color change because of the sun.

Also noticed that all of hers are in separate pots if you’re gonna combine them, make sure they need the same amount of water and light

For those succulents you want half sun and water them every week or so (when the soil gets dry or leves get mushy) also never follow the schedule on this app it will kill them . I hope u enjoy these beautiful succulents
