I don’t know if anyone can help with my extremely sad Peperomia Quito, but I will gladly take any opinions and knowledge I can get. Left pic is when I got it, right pic is what it looks like today 😭 I had this Quito shipped to me from out of state VIA Etsy and it arrived at my home on September 12th. The plant looked healthy overall with only a couple of leaves showing blackened edges. But I noticed right away the soil was extremely wet, almost mud-like so I repotted it into new soil. I use Grow Queen Aroid mix for my Peperomias because they usually thrive in it. It comes pre-moistened and so I didn’t water the plant after repotting. I have had it sitting in a south-facing window that doesn’t get direct sunlight this time of year due to a building next door blocking direct rays, but it gets decent ambient light. Fast forward to today. This thing has COMPLETELY flopped over. A couple of leaves have mushy brown stems that I removed and the stems are so mushy the leaves fall right off the stems without me applying any force to them. I moved the plant into a west-facing window that gets direct sunlight in the afternoon that I filter with blinds. What else can I do for this plant? Is this from overwatering like I’m suspecting, or does it actually need water and I’m completely misreading the situation? I don’t want to overcorrect and do a million things to an already stressed plant, but I also can’t sit by and do nothing, either. Anything anyone can recommend is extremely helpful, thank you so much in advance!

    I have several peps so I have been dealing with them for quite a while. From your pic, it looks like overwatering. Provably should check the roots. All of my peps dry out before I water. Your soil sounds fine. But the seller must have been overwatering because most any plant should survive one overwatering.

      Thanks for your response Phil, I’m going to attempt to check the roots but this thing feels super fragile, I’m worried all the stems and leaves are going to break off the moment I touch them 😭 here’s hoping at least some of this plant is salvageable
