My variegated string of hearts is in a southeast facing window, and the bottom of the strings have small, shriveled leaves. Does anyone know why? Too much light, too little light? Google says southeast is the best window light but maybe it’s too much..

I consistently water it and let it get pretty dry between watering. I’ve been fertilizing with a mix of superthrive foliage pro and calmag.

I just repotted it into circle soil cactus & succulent mix, so I’m hoping that helps. The roots looked fine and there was no root rot. I’ve had it at least 4-5 months and it’s hardly grown /: I’ve only been fertilizing it for a couple months tho

About five weeks ago I put those 4 cuttings in soil after I propagated them in water until they grew some roots.
(They were 5 cuttings at first, but one of them ripped out of the soil and already died.)

I spray them with water every 1-2 days to keep the soil moist so they can adapt easier with the change from water to soil. After a week or so I also started to water them regularly.

Two of the cuttings absorb the water just fine. One of them also struggled at first, but managed to adapt after three weeks or so.
The other two (2, 4 on the picture) seem to refuse the water, the leaves are shriveled all the time, bend very easily and don’t seem to improve.
(Same with the one that already died, except the leaves also already started falling off. That’s why I decided it was not worth putting it back in the soil after it ripped out.)

I’m afraid if I keep on spraying them and keep the soil moist that I risk root rot in the two that are doing great.
But I don’t know what else I can do to help the other two adapting and keep them from dying.

Thanks in advance!💕

(Edit: For the soil I used a cactus and succulent mix)

(Also: As helpful as some of the suggestions might be for next time, at the moment I’m mostly looking for advice on what to do with this plant right now. But still, thank you <3)
