Is there anyway I can save her?? Iā€™ve been watering and fertilizing as needed but she keeps getting worse.

    Mine was so sad after a winter of neglect. I had to cut back nearly every shoot, but itā€™s come back beautifully. You havenā€™t got much to cut, though, so Iā€™ll just cross my fingers that it rallies. Maybe youā€™re overwatering? Planta seems to advise much more watering than necessary.

      I agree with the above about Planta suggests lots of water for tradescantias. I water mine when itā€™s almost but not quite dry.

      I try to water it when itā€™s close to try, I use a water meter. I just use planta as a reminder to tend to my plants, definitely not overwatering. Though, I have changed the soil a few times because Iā€™ve been seeing fuzz frequently. I havenā€™t messed with it in a while.

    I donā€™t have one of these yet, sooo donā€™t listen to me, but maybe to much perlite in the soil? Causing it to dry quickly and needing more water, maybe repot/ remixing with more soil. It also looks like there might be a bit of fuzz growing in it too. Or maybe a tray with pebbles and water to create a little humidity around her? Idk!!! Take with a grain of salt lol

      I repotted not too long ago to try and get rid of the fuzz. I did just mix up a newer batch but I also donā€™t want to keep messing with it.

    When mine was struggling, I took it out of the soil, checked for root rot and put the healthy parts in water to develop the roots and be able to keep an eye on them. Once the roots had gotten stronger, I put it back in soil

      I have more luck with water growth anyways, I may do that with the healthy roots! Thanks for the suggestion!

    The pot also may be too big for the size of yours right now, but always depends on the root system it has under the soil!

    I tried to rescue one from clearance and same. Eventually I just cut off whatever was salavageable and have it in water now. Grew lots of roots now Iā€™m scared to replant in soil šŸ˜…
