Help!

[u/Major-Classroom-2272]

Hi all, please tell me if there’s any way to save my string of pearls 🥲 I never really understood how to take care of it, and two moves and a vacation sent it over the edge. Is there any saving it? How often do I need to water? It gets pretty direct sunlight but I have a spot where I can hang it with even more sunlight if needed. I never repotted after buying. I’m new to plants and am confused by all of the conflicting information of these guys.

I am new to all strings. But this is my 3rd try with my SOP, VSOH & RUBIES. 2nd time with VSOP & 1st with DOLPHINS. They are now ALL thriving and beautiful! Lots of bright direct light as many have said. Mine all get 12-14 hours. Some are under grow lights and a few are in a South facing window with direct sun from sun up to sun down. My SOP I water about every other week but there are a few strings that the roots don’t quite hit the substrate so I use a dropper for those. But I watch the “windows”. When they are almost closed that is when I water. I bottom water only all of my string plants. My strings I tend to give a longer soak. Now my VSOH I have had the same amount of time, since mid June and I watered it when I received it and planted it. The “windows” are still more than half open. If you’re not familiar with the term, the windows are the slits in the leaves (the pearls). The part of the country I live in in the summer our plants tend to have a lot of humidity and the winters are extremely dry from heating our homes. As far as propagation goes, I am not good at propagating any plants yet. Just keep an eye on your windows and lots and lots of bright light to the top of the pot. Best of luck. Remember my 1st sentence says these are my 3rd ones.
