See title. Very excited team.

I got these two Drawf Jade trees in May and I’ve been having some problems. The first picture is the bigger one that is having more trouble. At first I was watering it a bit too much I think, and once I realized that I changed the watering schedule. It got a bit better but it never fully recovered and lately it’s been looking a bit worse again. The other picture is the smaller one and for awhile it has been thriving really well even with me over watering at first. Lately though it has been losing a lot of leaves and some of the leaves are turning brownish and are less glossy than they normally look. My mom thinks it may because we have the furnace running now that it’s getting colder out, but I’m not sure that would really affect them in this way. My question is what steps can I take to get both of these trees back up to health again? And what precautions can I take in the future to not let these things happen again?

I feel like I lost the vision on this one. I look at it and I can't figure out what I don't like about it and therefore I don't know what I need to fix. All I know is that when I look at it that it needs improving. I just don't know what that is.

Anyone have any luck/experience stratifying and growing beech from seed?

Good morning everyone, im rather new to bonsai (picked it up around February) I recently got this Procumbens Nana from a store and was wondering about how to move forward with a cascade style on it, since its what first caught my attention. Any advice and help will be greatly appreciated.🙏🏽🙏🏽

In development since 1995, originally purchased from UC Arboretum and Botanical Garden at Cal State Fullerton (1995).

I acquired it today from an old timer today, Oscar, who is out of West Covina.

Super pumped to steward this tree (succulent?) for a few more decades!
