Just got this white princess start from a friend and it’s still in moss! What is the white leaf Turing brown like this ?! It’s under grow lights, I make sure the moss is damp but not soaking or water at the bottom.. ugh. It’s not the try crispy brown it’s still soft 😞

I’ve been told the white turning brown means not enough sun

That’s good to know, I do have her under grow lights but maybe I’ll try increasing it and see how it goes

It’s completely normal for the white on variegated plants to brown, especially if they’re mostly white

Thank you!! It was so white and beautiful for so long and now it’s turning brown :(

You should pot it in soil! Moss is not good for this plant

#### Lacee님이 2024-07-02에 답변했습니다.

Really?!! Thanks so much! I didn’t know that! I will repot right now!

My white wizard is doing the same thing and it gets hours of bright indirect light. Its unfortunately unavoidable with white leaves

#### Lacee님이 2024-07-05에 답변했습니다.

Should I just prune the leave off? Or back to the tiny bit of green or leave it to brown and fall offf ?

#### Kat’s Cottage님이 2024-07-06에 답변했습니다.

You can either trim the white that’s turning brown off or leave it. Here’s how mine looks now and I still have new growth.
