# Is this root rot on my snake plant??? Its leaves were drooping even…

_ABucketOfPlants님이 2024-03-24에 게시함_

Is this root rot on my snake plant??? Its leaves were drooping even before I repotted it a month ago and its leaves were wrinkly and it turns out it was because the soil wasn’t thick enough to hold the water long enough for the roots to absorb it. I repotted it into chunkier but still airy soil. I watered it 2-3 days ago and it’s kind of dark but not soggy at all, only a little moist. I only water my snake plant when the soil is completely bone dry all the way through.

Then what’s that yellow coloring near the base and the wrinkles?

#### sarita님이 2024-03-24에 답변했습니다.

i’m not sure :( it’s not mushy at all? did you check the actual roots for rot?

^^ did you notice anything on the roots when you repotted?

#### ABucketOfPlants님이 2024-03-24에 답변했습니다.

Nope I wasn’t looking too closely but it seemed fine

I don’t think the roots were rotted and the yellow stuff near the base isn’t mushy

Ahhh I completely forgot about this I was never notified sorryy. Do you still need help with the plant or has it gotten better?
