So it turns out my pilea was waterlogged, so much that her drainage pot was full up to the base. So I rushed her out the pot and outside I airated soil and squeezed out the loose water, idk what else I can do for her. She’s the most problematic plant I own and, I just don’t know what to give her to thrive, noir have the necessities for different soil on hand. So I’m not sure what my best move is to do she’s outside in some direct/indirect, sun more of south sun and soon will be partial sun. I’m so inexperienced and just don’t know how to keep indoor plants so any advice on what to do would help.

    If soil is still way to water logged, you can remove the whole thing from the plastic nursery pot, and place on a towel. Wrap the towel gently around bottom and sides of soil and let is soak up excess for like an hour. Then put back into nursery pot. Be careful to not blast it with any direct sun especially while its suffering, since its not acclimated to that. Outside indirect bright light best. Hopefully you caught it in time before rot sets in. Thats a whole other convo.

      Ok I will go do that right now and it’s only some direct where I live it’s a lot of trees in our backyard so complete sun isn’t very common and last long

      Done it but her leaves went to hard and fragile to soft and flexible is that normal for this plant?

      That might be from going outside where she got hot

      Ahh makes sense, I trimmed her leaf that was severely damaged. Fortunately most of her leaves are ok but it was needed for her to go outside. She had to much water it was like how when you get one from the shop and the decorative pot has been filled, as that much water was given.
