# My Gloriosum has developed brown and yellow tips as well as brown and…

_Posted by Tah on 2024-09-29_

My Gloriosum has developed brown and yellow tips as well as brown and yellow on the leaf edge. I was keeping it in the nursery soil for the first month. Per Dr. Planta, it might have been overwatered. I was following the schedule, and snoozing. I did not notice too many roots with root rot.

But I did go ahead and repot it into a aroid mix.

I moved it closer to the window so it would get a bit more light.

Does this seem correct?

Mine thrives in 50%+ humidity and chunky soil. I usually do equal part perlite soil charcoal and orchid bark in a bonsai pot so it can crawl

Ok, that is a close approximation of my mix. My room humidity has been between 60-70. I think the soil it was in might have been retaining too much moisture. If I did a thorough soaking I would often snooze the water schedule
