What’s wrong with my pilea? My previous pilea died after looking like this. I don’t believe it to be overwatered and I have tried fungicide and it also has bonide in it. The leaves are turning yellow, some have black spots and many have alr fallen off.
Yellowing of the bottom leaves is normal as this plant grows taller. Doesn’t look particularly sick but the leaves pointing like that could be it needs to be rotated weekly or somewhere closer to ambient light.

0개 좋아요How does one fix that?
0개 좋아요 Either a fertilizer with micronutrients or an Epsom salt spray (easy to look up online). There are several pups growing around the sides which can be stealing nutrients from the mama plant; so if those are gaining leaves and the main stem is gaining leaves, even smaller ones, that’s still pretty normal.
