do i have to repot a plant that's been overwatered? or can i just adjust its watering schedule? pics for reference. these plants don't like me or my house's lack of sunlight

How long has it been over watered?

#### artemisiavulgaris respondió el 2025-04-09

the leaves have been curling like that for about a week or two

I would honestly wait, put her in a window or close by one that gets some sun. Wait for the soil to dry completely.

Hopefully you can save her, if that doesn't work then I would take the soil and repot.

i'll try that!! thanks so much

I also find that taking the nursery pot out of the cover pot helps it dry out faster if it’s been overwatered

that's also a good idea, i'll probably do that as well. thanks!
