PLEASE HELP!!

This went from being a full plant to this and I don’t know what I did wrong! The previous leaves turned yellow or fell off from the stem. Should I chop it and propagate or leave it??

Chinese evergreen are easily overwatered. Also despite popular opinion they require a lot of light especially when they have very little green on their leaves. I would put more drainage in the soil so that the roots aren’t staying went to long. Then add a dedicated grow light. They grow fairly slowly so it may not show new growth for quite some time.

I am considering getting grow lights especially after seeing how much lost I’ve had within several plants this winter (my first winter with all these plants). Definitely going to add more drainage within the soil!
