Little Mr PapaGiorgio, string of pearls succulent is thriving pretty well. Noticed some mold even though I don’t overwater and they have drainage. I added some cinnamon powder to help with that so hopefully it helps

Cinnamon won't help with mold. Mold growth happens when the soil stays damp too long. You're likely seeing it because, even if that pot has a drainage hole at the bottom, it's made of glazed clay, which is non-porous and holds onto moisture. Also, the opening of the pot is small and partially enclosed, which means poor airflow to the soil. Succulents, including SOPs, do best in terracotta pots, which are porous and help the soil dry out faster.
@GracedKaraka21 hi there! Just so you know a North facing window is far too little light for Mr. PapaGiorgio. South, maybe west depending on your window, or a grow light are needed.
And I agree with everything @stephonicle Steph said!

@stephonicle ahhh, I see. I think other factors might be at play out of my hands but the info you provided makes sense to me! Thanks:)
