My watermelon peperomia was doing ok until late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. I have repotted it. I have a grow light I’m using. What can be done to try and save it, and also what is the best positioning for my light for it to grow?

    This is the most dramatic plant in my collection. It gets a little bit thirsty and the entire thing flops over in 2 hours and looks dead. Then perks right back up once its watered. It’s taken me a very long time with this plant to get mine figured out. My biggest suggestions with this plant are: - don’t have in a pot too large, only 2-3” larger than its root ball - loose chunky mix, mine struggled in just regular potting soil - let it almost dry out completely, it was VERY sensitive to overwatering. - fertilize! Mine really needs frequent fertilizing. Good luck! They are beautiful once you get it thriving!

      I am using miracle grow indoor potting soil I am also using miracle grow indoor plant food. I have a grow light that I got from Lowe’s. Would an LED grow light be better?
