Does anyone know why I haven’t been having the best luck with my philodendron. Got it about 2 weeks ago, it’s in good indoor sun, and watered every week. One by one the smaller leaves get watery and slimy then dry out and go limp. On the bigger leaves I’m noticing just small parts of the leaves go dry.

Maybe root rot? Does your pot have holes in it??

Uh oh. Root rot. You tube how to do that. Its a bit complicated best learned visually.

Maybe root bound? They look and smell healthy

My first guess is also root rot. Also, let the soil dry out between watering instead of just watering on a set schedule, use that as a guide as to when to check the soil ☺️

Roots still look healthy, maybe a bigger pot?
