Is something wrong with my Jellybean plant?

The stem changed color a little. I'm not smelling anything and when I touch it, it's as firm as the rest. But the color is a bit darker than the others! #planttherapy #plantgraveyard #weirdplants #help #succulentsquad #cacticlique #succulentlove #succulentsunday #newplantmom #rootrot

You chould check the roots for rootrot since you are loosing so many leaves.

When you water, do you make sure and check that the soil is 100% dry? Because these plants hate to sit in water and shouldn't be watered that often.

@Nathaliezyx4 Okay, I'll check. And yes, I do-- nothing ever sticks so I assume it's dry lol

@Nathaliezyx4 I just checked and made the biggest mess ever but I didn't see or smell any root rot! Is it just me or do these roots look thin though?

I have found that succulent roots are really thin and easily to break -_-

If you sure no rot, just give it some fresh succulent/cacti and dubble check before you water.

If the soil is completely dry, the leaves will also feel softer when you gently squeeze into it. This is the trick i use to see if it needs water

@Nathaliezyx4 Is it possible the discoloration is from too little light?
