# Hello All, I recently bought this jennie plant from home depot. It’s…

_Publié par Arham le 2023-09-23_

Hello All,  
I recently bought this jennie plant from home depot. It’s actually my first ever plant. But the leaves keep on turning brown and dying. I have kept this indoor, close to the window so that it gets some sunlight. But its not helping. Any idea what can be done to bring it back to life. Below is have posted two pictures, one when i bought it and the other one is the recent one. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Either water is needed or remove from direct sunlight bc sometimes the sun burns the leaves

I mean its near the window but it hardly gets like 2 or 3 hours of sun.

If you rerouted (put it in a new pot) you should not worry and let it get used to the new environment.🙃

Yes i bought it from home depot and repotted it. It has a lot of leaves initially when i bought it as u can see from the pictures but since then it has been turning brown and i keep on cutting it as they were dead.

It could also be to small of a pot too

These guys do take a bit to acclimatize. Somethings I found to work with mine:  
\- Pot with drainage, 1-2” larger than the root ball (it did really well once it got a bit root bound)  
\- let soil almost completely dry before watering again  
\- fertilized 1x every 3-4 waterings  
\- west window - got 3-5 hrs direct sunlight a day - I do have a shear curtain I close on the super intense sun days.

Mine did take a bit to bounce back after I repotted.
