hi, have had it for 4 or 5 years.... in sand... wrinkled leaves (on bottom of branches) the sand mix is dry... i water ~ once / week.... should i cut off some of the tops? i don't know whether they need more water -- or are getting too much? (the wrinkling does not seem to relate to watering) i have some jade plants (cloned) (very early stages) (in the same location) and they get A LOT of water (same frequency) -- they are doing well... (same mix) any advice (pertaining to the plant:) would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

You are not telling us enough to have any idea what you may be doing wrong.
Try repotting it in a pot with soil and water thoroughly when you water.
thanks for replying... what have i left out? (they don't have pests; they are in the same place (light-wise) that they were in when i got them? -- they are showing new growth)
HOWEVER, i'm not soaking them (i.e. the h2o doesn't go through the drainage hole) i watered it / them 2 d/a (not soaking) and they (i think 'they' are > 1 plant
-- 4 stems) look a bit better... (plus there is growth)
thanks for post> Who knows?
hi and thanks, i have inspected them and had fairly recently repotted the plant(s) (i think there is > 1 plant -- i.e. there are 4 trunks / stems) will repot in better mix -- think the sand is is too fine -- is perlite ok? i watered them (it) 2 days ago ... the water does not go through the drain hole (ever) -- they look a bit better (i think) (the water has never gone through the pot) thanks
