# Any thoughts on my purple waffle plant. Many leaf ends have a grayish…

Any thoughts on my purple waffle plant. Many leaf ends have a grayish coloring which I thought might be sunburn. It is also getting very leggy and falling over. I moved it to a north west facing window with a bit more shade a week ago. It’s in all purpose potting soil in a 6” pot. Was watered yesterday and previously 9 days ago.

A plant gets leggy when it is trying to find water or more light. Dry leaf edges is probably a watering issue. I suspect under watering if it’s not a lighting issue.

Moving to a lower light north window is essentially putting it in shade. It’s better to put it in indirect filtered light. Sunburn doesn’t just affect leaf edges and tips. It affects the areas hit by full sun. It doesn’t look like sunburn.
