I have a pink princess here, had her for a few weeks and she was doing great, I think I overwatered her. I used the diagnose option and it had said overwatered, so I took it out of the soil to see if it had root rot. It didn’t, I switched it to some dry soil with more drainage but it just seems to be getting worse?? I haven’t watered since the switched soil, and the diagnose is now saying under watered. Not sure what to do! Advice appreciated

    I swear this is me 100%! I would personally water it a tiny bit like right in the middle by the stem, so ur sure roots get some. I’m no pro, I have 100% done this myself lol after I was in ur spot. I gave it a water again when I got to this point lol She started to become happy again!

    It has a pretty bad fungal infection on the leaf that’s half gone. That could be contributing to it

      You think so? The nursery had told me that was just because the leaf had trouble unfurling

    I’m having the exact same problem with mine! And I don’t think it’s a fungal infection because one of my leaves looks like that too.

      I actually did a ton of research and I think she just got a little sunburnt in the nursery. Not super harmful but I cut off that leaf anyway to save the energy!

    I was thinking sunburn but I guess I did it myself 😭 gave it too much light. I’m hoping for a recovery 🤞🏼
