Kiddo’s Polka Dot plant is on a struggle bus. It gets plenty sun and is watered based on soil checks. Any suggestions to get it thriving again?

Have you tried misting between watering? I thought mine was K.O but I now misted heavily between watering and she’s thriving (from top right to top left improvement) ive learned this plant loves humidity and sun

When my little polka dot plant looked awful I gave her a good pruning and within weeks she looks much better

Definitely needs a pruning, and we’ll do that.

Will also try the misting as we have not tried that.

Thank you!! 🤞🤞🤞

Have you checked the roots? Mine very quickly outgrows the pot.

#### manta님이 2024-03-12에 답변했습니다.

We haven’t and will check that out. Maybe add to all of the replantings we have to do soon 🤞🤞🤞

Eeee — thanks for the ideas!

We’ve tried replanting, pruning, misting and watering. The remaining stems are quite woody though they still have the cute fuzz. Remaining leaves are dry and we were just hesitating remove all of them. Should we call it or keep trying to mist and salvage in your opinions?
