I just went to water my new string of tears plant and now I’m the one fight back tears because I have done messed this plant up. I’ll add pics of where it lives and what it looked like when I brought it home back in October in the comments.

    Here is my advice for mushy string of pearls. It will still apply here.

    !Overwatered and !rotting. Clip the healthy strands to !propagate, repot into dry !gritty soil, and wait for them to grow new roots. Acclimate to some sun, and once they have roots, water only when the windows close on the leaves, this will give the leaves a deflated appearance.
