Think of the app as a recommendation. But the plant gets the final say. What did the roots say. Because if it wasn’t enough roots to support that big of a pot the that could lead to stress from to much water. It looks like regular potting mix which can hold onto moisture if not amended. But I don’t have this plant so take it with a grain of salt.

0개 좋아요It really depends! My bird of paradise usually goes through a phase where it looks like it’s going to die after being repotted, but after giving it time to dry out and acclimate I’ve had good success keeping it alive. Depending on how the yellow leaves are, if they look dead and to the point of no return, you can cut them off so the plant can direct the rest of its attention elsewhere. Most important thing is letting the soil dry out even if the app says to water it. Once it looks dry on the top you could start watering again but just don’t overdo it while it recovers from repotting!
