What have I done
I think I killed my beloved jade plant. Last week it lost a branch and many leaves after I accidentally knocked it over. Now I wanted to check on it and almost ALL the leaves just fell down 😭😭😭 I'm trying to be good plant parent, but I am guilty of overwatering in the past. I recently moved to a place with similar conditions (south window) with a lot of light but apparently the new place is prone to having mealybugs due to a nearby park (I was told). When I found a few bugs on my other jades two or three weeks ago (first time having to deal with them), I followed emergency protocol and they seem fine so far. I didn't see any bugs on this particular plant and planned to still treat it, but kept putting it off.
Some leaves that fell off today look kinda chewed on, so maybe now I'm paying for my lazyness, my clumsynes or for unintentionally drowning my plants causing long-term damage.
Yesterday I came across a picture of my old windowsill, when my jades still were little babies four years ago. Maybe that why I feel particularly down about what happened today.
Is there even a way to safe what's left? The remaining branch + leaves seem stable, so there might be hope. I am considering emergency amputation, if that's necessary. I also don't want to further stress is out by treating it the wrong way, so I would really appreciate your option on what to do next. Thank you very much!
