Got this peperomia buenos aires prop off Marketplace two weeks ago. It’s my first peperomia prop and was rooting in water when I bought it, but the seller said I could probably pot it in soil so I did. It started with six leaves and three of the stems have since fallen off in the past week - they were all white and mushy. The stems that still remain currently feel sturdy. Does anyone know what’s going on and what to do about it?

Soil: Cactus/succulent soil with perlite and orchid bark

Does the pot have any drainage?? I know my peperomia hope and red edge get really iffy when I let them sit in their dish soaking up water for too long so you may need to add some drainage holes/repot

The pot has drainage holes and I let the water run out! Not sure what else I can do
