(I didn't want to that person, but I have to be that person...) My echeveria and my elephant bush have soft/soggy leaves. :c
Post Body

I'm pretty sure that with the echeveria, this is a sign of overwatering, but the elephant bush I have no clue. The leaves on the elephant bush look kind of wrinkly, they're curling under, and they're easy to bend. They started doing this the day after I watered them. With the echeveria (which has been on a steady decline since I got it a couple months ago), they're just soft and easy to bend (although the top/middle most leaves seem okay still). Is this overwatering? Underwatering? Is the water possibly poisoning them?

I also think that our house doesn't get adequate light anywhere. Both plants started reaching within days after bringing them home. There's nowhere outside I can put them, either, that would get sunlight and be protected from the rain.

I feel like the odds are stacked against them, and I may as well not bother with trying to keep green things until we move to somewhere more tolearable. :c

tldr; two plants with soggy leaves, crappy sunlight, possibly crappy water, what do?
