Hmmm…. How often are you watering it?

#### Abby님이 2024-08-17에 답변했습니다.

i water it once a week, but i have only had it for about 3 weeks

It might be overwatered. Dig it up and check its roots to see if you have any black/mushy roots. If you do, remove anything that is rotten, spray the remaining roots with hydrogen peroxide and repot with new soil.

i’ve had mine for almost 2 years, i water mine once a week and i wipe down the leaves with a mixture of water \& mayo (weird ik but it creates a healthy shine)  
make sure to check the roots and get rid of anything that looks yucky. try resoiling it as well! hope this helps! 😊
