Hello, philodendron family! 👋🏼 I have had this pink princess philodendron for about a month. When I purchased this plant, it appeared to have some rust fungus so I would spray the leaves with copper fungicide, but had no other issues. I originally had it placed under a grow light and would alternate watering and misting on a weekly basis. The leaves have recently become droopy, the pink variegation is turning brown and soft, the tips of a few leaves are slightly curled, and the tips of new leaves have dried out. I have moved it to an enclosed porch so it could receive some indirect sunlight and have been bottom watering in a pebble tray to encourage humidity. With these efforts the plant still seems to be struggling. What are some potential causes of these physical changes and how can I improve the health of this plant? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    Are you allowing the soil to become at least 50% dry between waterings? Cause the symptoms sound like maybe overwatering.

    She looks overwatered - don’t water on a fixed schedule, check the soil with your finger or stick, top couple inches should be dry before watering. Check her roots and trim off any that are rotting and repot into a nice chunky soil.
