Question
Hi there,
 I saved a few small stems with two leave attached on each from my mother-in-law's Jade. She moved her large once beautiful Jade plant from a nice sunny window to a low light window and overwatered it, now the whole plant died. Very sad.
 I have a lot of experience with common house plants, but not Jade.
   My question is I replanted the two small stems from the poor dying plant about five months ago in the proper potting mix and  watered it once a week. Both have been doing great, growing slowly and enjoying their new attentive home.
 Recently one of the plants leaves started to wrinkle. I assumed it needed more water, but it did not plump back up after. I haven't did anything different. The other one is doing great.  I'm worried and would love for it to pull through. If you have any suggestion's I would really appreciate it.

Answer
Eve,

Stop watering it! Jade is from the plains of Africa. It should be planted in a sandy cactus soil. Whenever it is sick it needs to stay dry awhile. When you take cuttings you should not water them at all until you see they are beginning to grow new leaves. The days are getting shorter so all tropical plants are slowing down and will go semi dormant for the winter. They need less water, not more this time of year. During the winter most of your tropical plants are better off going 10-14 days between waterings.

The leaves are wrinkling because the roots are rotting from too much water. Drain any excess water out and set it in the sunniest window possible or on warm days set it out side where it will get sun all morning and shade in the afternoon. It only needs to go in if night temperatures are going to be below 50 degrees.  It may be too late. If you can't save it pick up another and try again. They need lots of sun and sandy soil, think desert and cactus and you will not kill them. Good luck!
