So I changed my pearls n jade and snow queen to water bc they was suffering from root rot do you think it’ll help? I fertilized the water before putting them in there. I ordered them off of Walmart and they already had root rot I’ve had them for about a month and the seem ok but still has rotting roots I had them in soil since I got them just asking if y’all think it’s the best idea for them

You need to remove all of the soil or it will rot again. Use a toothbrush under room temp water.

I’ve transferred some of my plants to water-only as an experiment. Be sure to check on them weekly, as some of the roots may still get mushy in the water. I just pull off the mush.

I love Pothos in water jar they grow so happy and I noticed the stem are all bunch up together try to separate them adding more water jar so they can bloom nicely. 😊
