Helppp! I just got this summer glory & repotted it right away (not sure if that’s the issue) but I noticed it is starting to get yellow edges & there was a super mushy part on one of the leaves. Not sure what I’m doing wrong!

    i think yellowing near the edges means too much sun or desease.

      Hmm I have it on a grow light so maybe it’s too close?? Idk I moved it so going to see if that helps 😭

    If the spot gets bigger after you moved the light; it might be fusarium fungus. The treatment for that is to cut off any affected leaves with a sterilized cutting tool. (You can also treat with fungicide if you want to.) If you can't sacrifice the leaf (maybe it only has one,) then treat with a fungicide and do repeat treatments (every 3 days or so) as needed

      Should I quarantine from my other plants in case that’s what it is? Also is neem oil a form of fungicide? I make my own plant spray with neem oil & castor soap not sure if that will work.

      Yes neem oil is a fungicide. As far as quarantining goes, just put some distance between the affected plant and healthy ones; it mostly travels by direct touch
