Have you checked to see if it’s been over watered? Also, check to Make sure your roots aren’t dying.

If roots are dying what can I do?

#### Kat Marie replied on 2023-09-24

If there are soggy/mushy parts on the roots, trim them all off and repot your plant in very slightly moist soil and only water when it’s dry. If your roots ARE dying, it’s probably a case of poor drainage after over watering. Make sure the holes in the bottom of your pots aren’t clogged.

Maybe trim them? They will mostly be fine after

#### Cat replied on 2023-09-28

Or repot it I’m unsure but good luck

also, after trimming, soak the roots in 3-1 water-hydrogen peroxide mix for abt 15. then repot, if its root rot. good luck!
