I’d give it some time, but also put it into a chunkier mix if after a week or two it looks the same or worse

It looks like it may have root rot. Did you see any brown mushy roots when repotting?

I agree. Yeah it might not be from the repotting but leftover damage from its previous situation.

#### K ha respondido el 2024-05-25

No it all looked good :/ and no funky smell

I had that happen to me also. I would remove the discolored portion and let it dry completely before watering again. That portion probably had the infected roots. I hope it turns around. So far mine did. I am seeing new growth 🤗
