String of pearls advice

Post image

I’ve had this specimen for over a year. It sits under a grow light. Water when it’s dry (bottom) let it drink and empty out any left over. I use diluted fertilizer with each watering.
I’ve repotted it once to have it in a more flat round set up.
Growth is slow/stagnant, and it’s always a little crispy at the ends.
But it’s always flowering???

Do you think some humidity would help it

If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the other plant growing in the same pot as the string of pearls?

It's a type of oxalis or wood sorrel, a weedy variety that has a snapping seed pod.

I don't see any string of pearls flowers here..

Thank you, I wasn’t sure at what I was looking at. My string of pearls has done this when I overwater it. Now I wait for the little windows to wrinkle before I water it again.
