my dying plant My roommate had a jade plant with two little ‘trees.’ The newer growth one is still okay, but the bigger one started shriveling up and dying a few weeks ago. It got soft and seemed to become hollow in the middle. Then it dried out. It was in the window it’s been sitting in its whole life. My roommate said not to water it too often, just when the soil was very dry. She’s home maybe once every 2-3 weeks anyway, and she had only been watering it that often, and it was fine. But yeah now it’s dead lol. I have another plant that I got as a gift. Unfortunately I don’t have any pics of it when it was healthy, so it’d be hard to identify, but it’s a common houseplant with a woody stem and multiple long thin green leaves that often need plucking. My roommate has another one of the same..species..that’s tall and more like a tree. Anyway I left for a month one time and came back and it wasn’t in great shape, but a little watering and it came back to life. So I figured I didn’t need to water it much either. A few weeks ago I moved it to the front window and it got crispy I assume from too much sun, so I moved it out of the window. Recently it’s started to do the same shriveling up and dying thing. It feels weirdly wet and limp like the jade plant did, so I assume the next stage will be it getting all dried out and rattly. The leaves are brown and limp. Is this a plant disease or am I doing something wrong? I don’t water it very often. But yeah, it’s like, wet and gross. I don’t want to keep killing things :(
