# Help! Is there anything I can do to save this Peace Lily? I received…

_Posted by Nikki R on 2025-06-07_

Help! Is there anything I can do to save this Peace Lily? I received her from someone who no longer wanted her, (first picture) I switched her pot and soil and put her on a watering and fertilizer schedule but her steams just kept dying. I have finally cut her back to just a small base (2nd photo) please help!! She is also under a grow light that is on for 3 hours a day

Switch her to water!!!!

I’m not even joking… plantswithkrystal on YouTube… she has a vid where she saves her moms from root rot by switching it to water. My resident rescues have done amazing in water too. Peace lilies are bog plants. They thrive on water and low light.

What sort of setup should I do for that? Just a glass with water? Should I add a fertilizer to the water? Should I take her away from the grow light?

### Dory commented on 2025-06-08

Use water/hydroponic fertilizer and pop her in a small enough “vase” (same idea as pots… appropriate according to rootball and size up as needed)
