UPDATE: it’s doing well now! I changed the soil to a chunkier soil and gave it a good watering. Thanks for all of the help!

Hey y’all! I need help, this plant has been acting sick recently…nothing has changed in its care schedule. Please help!

Pests? Or over watered? If overwatered check for root rot

Ok, thank you

I would check the roots. Remove the soil clean the roots with Hydrogen peroxide and pot in fresh chunky soil.

Ok thanks!

Definitely check roots if no pests.

Mine looked like that until I watered it, then it bounced back.

Got drainage? It looks like it needs more dirt covering the stems, closer to the intersections. There’s a word for that, can’t recall what it is.

It does have drainage! I looked at the roots, changed the soil, and watered it and it’s thriving now :)
