The soils looks pretty wet, does it have drainage?

#### lers ha respondido el 2023-11-08

it has a small hole at the bottom i watered it a couple days ago

#### Ada ha respondido el 2023-11-08

Ok, my guess is that it’s been overwatered. You should look at the roots to see if there’s any root rot (brown, mushy, and have a bad smell).

It also looks like it doesn’t have enough light. It should ideally be in a south facing window

i wish that was possible but i live in a dorm😭

#### Anya ha respondido el 2023-11-08

You could always get a grow light

Mines also got squishy leaves on the bottom. I’ve clipped them off and so far it stopped but I’m debating whether or not to repot into a better draining soil. Im leaving it alone right now to be safe 😅
