Leaves falling off:(
I live in southeast North Dakota, so it’s chilly here! I keep my house at about 70-73 degrees. My two succulents are loosing leaves in the middle to the bottom of the plant. My other spikey succulents are doing fine! Do I need to move a few plants? If so which one plant is more resilient/easiest to being moved?
3ft to light, direct
7” pot with drainage

Insufficient Light (Etiolation): If the plant is stretching (getting tall and thin) and dropping leaves in the middle, it is not getting enough light.
Fix: Move to a spot with bright, direct light (6+ hours a day), ideally a south-facing window or under a grow light.
Normal Growth: If the plant is producing new, tight rosettes at the top, lower-to-mid leaves may die as the plant reabsorbs them. I’m not sure which of these are causing your problem. I do however see you have two plants together that need different light requirements. The Haworthia doesn’t like strong light the Echeveria wants strong light. The Haworthia is happy, the Echeveria isn’t.
