Christy, it looks like you planted them in drink cups - did you punch enough holes in the bottom of the cups for good drainage? It's possible the drainage holes are plugged up now, if they were too small or too few.

Any that are still green, I think you should maybe scoop them out of their cups and put them into some fresh, sterile potting soil. Be very careful not to destroy any live foliage, and to preserve as many roots as possible.

If the medium is too soggy lower down, when you scoop them out, set them on a paper towel or something absorbent to dry out the medium right away.
