Is there any saving the little last root of my peace lily? It got root rot and I cut it all off and put hydrogen peroxide on it. I had it in soil and changed it to water.

Personally i would cut off the dead leaf and try propagating with just the node. I don’t know too much about peace lilies however, that leaf is dead and is going to take energy away from the plants ability to produce roots!

1 likeWhat I’ve noticed is peace lilies tell you when they’re thirsty. They will start drooping and throwing a fit lol!! I would look for drooping instead of following a set watering schedule!
3 likesAlso check your other peace lily for root rot. If you do find some spritz the roots with a diluted hydrogen peroxide solution and let them dry for a few hours before repotting!! As far as the ratio of peroxide to water, I’d recommend looking that up as I have never had to do it personally but I have read that it helps!

1 likeMaybe that’s what I’m doing wrong. Before repotting I’m not letting them dry out 1st.
0 likesWhat if I just move them from soil to water do I still need to let them dry out 1st?
1 likeI would just to let them breathe a bit. Especially if they do have root rot
