Is she ok??? I can’t tell. If you look closely there are several dead leaves

Give chat GPT the details beleive it or not and it’ll help you!

It’s definitely not doing great. There’s still new leaves forming so it’s not dead but it needs help. Could be anything without details about its care and soil and all that

I started it under a growth light, but my friend had it under a growth light and it was fine. Should I turn the brightness down? I really don’t want to kill her

#### Nikiller replied on 2026-07-19

I don’t think it’s the grow light. It’s most likely either watering (too much or little) or an infection (root rot, fungus, etc) but you have to do some thorough investigation on the plant itself to see what all the symptoms and causes are
