I’ve always wanted a palm and an umbrella plant. I finally got some baby ones and I’m trying hard to grow them. I repotted the umbrella in a succulent soil that has peat moss in it, also added some perlite. The palm I haven’t repotted. I kept it in the same soil I bought it in which was from Home Depot. I water the umbrella 1 every week to every other week and the palm I water when the soil gets dry. I’ve had these for maybe 2 months and they haven’t grown much. The palm leaves kept falling out which I think is from root rot but I don’t water it that much. I try to pull the brown leaves off. Should I repot the palm in better soil? If that’s the case online says the soil should work with succulent soil that has a lot of drainage. But the umbrella said the same thing and the umbrella is having a hard time with growing too. The leaves break off and it also has these brown spots growing on it. I just want to do a good job and have these babies grow nice and tall. Please give me any advice. Also my house has no ac and the house is around 75°-80°F so it shouldn’t be the temp. Idk I’m losing my mind researching how to care for these plants. What am I doing wrong?
P.S. I used miracle grow succulent soil. Lmk if that soil is doodoo
