Some of my plants aren’t doing to well I can only assume it’s because we’ve had a sudden drop in weather into the below 0 region this one’s started growing crystals on the underside of its leaves, and I can only assume they are mini icicles. It’s a prop I got from the neighbour was healthy when I got it. It had nuts for a little bit, but I started adding less water and I moved it to a new location out of direct sunlight which is really seem to help. It was thriving growing, but now there’s hardly any of it left. It’s a Chinese money plant I believe any tips? One of my flatmates has another propagation from the same person that has in water and is doing a lot better, so I was wondering if I should give that a try and remove it from the soil ? (I read that putting all your plants together when it gets cold helps so I’ve done that and it’s now live location with more light to warm him up a little)

    p. peperomioides will collect excess mineral salts on the underside of the leaves. if you’re watering it with tap water that’s likely what the crystals on the back of the leaves are. it looks like it has had some trouble rooting as well. once the soil dries, if it does not improve, i’d recommend unpotting it, applying some rooting hormone, and replanting it in an airy mix
