# Hi friends! I recently tried to repot my Thai constellation and went…

_Posted by Kmey25 on 2025-05-09_

Hi friends! I recently tried to repot my Thai constellation and went wrong somewhere in the process to a point where I lost the roots 🙃🥲 is there any coming back from this or where to go from here? The leaves have started turning yellow as a result too. Thank you for your help and appreciate any advice :)

The black part at the bottom… is it mushy? If so, cut off any black part, put some cinnamon powder on the wound and leave out for about a day or two to callous over. Then place in water and roots may grow.

Hi there, sorry to hear! What does that nub look like with the soil washed off? I’m just wondering if there’s enough node left to grow a root. Here’s one of my rehab monsteras - this one had root rot but has recently started growing this root against all odds. I’m water propagating it at the moment.

This is after rinsing it off and I found I think one little node. It is good to see there is some hope! Thank you!

Great! All you can do now is cross your fingers and hope for the best! Make sure you change out the water at least weekly and try to keep the roots dark ie if you prop this in a glass, put that glass into a dark pot or something like that
