I haven’t changed the care, maybe lest water, but my peperomia has done this. I’ve watered it and it hasn’t done anything 😭 Let me know if you have any tips or advice. Thank you!

    Maybe try a repot to check the roots. I feel like the plant is limp due to root health, also maybe a support could help new growth.

      Thank you! I have repotted this plant in a long time so I will definitely try this!

    What is the white on the pot, Is it mold? How did she look a few days ago? That looks like overwatering - I second what Melody said and check the roots for rot.

      The white is just mineral buildup from the water. It’s looked like this for maybe a month now it’s lost very few leaves.

    I had to put one of my peps into water, she just wasn’t happy in soil. Maybe worth a try?

    It looks like a peperomia obtusifolia. It is a succulent, so it needs appropriate care. Gritty succulent soil, water only when soil is totally dry, and lots of bright light. Many people overwater them. Their roots are very shallow and probably don’t even reach the bottom of that pot, which also contributes to overwatering.

      Thank you for the tips! It’s in succulent soil and I use a water meter to manage when I water it and let the soil dry out before I water it

      Sounds like you are doing it all correctly. So must be something else going on.
