# My little raindrop pepperomia is so sad :( I’ve tried to keep her…

_Posted by MegDawg on 2026-03-06_

My little raindrop pepperomia is so sad :( I’ve tried to keep her watered and under my grow light but she just keeps getting droopier. I reveived her as a gift already in a bad state but she’s gotten worse despite my attempts. I cut off some bad leaves a while ago to possibly help her use energy for growth rather than those leaves. Could’ve been a bad idea
