    It looks like it may be overwatered and have root rot

      Even watering it that much can be too much for a snake plant. One of that size could actually go a couple months between watering. Are you making sure that it is bone dry to the bottom of the pot before watering?

      Yes I have a soil moisture meter

      Moisture meters aren’t the most accurate way to measure moisture because they measure conductivity in the soil, which can be affected by other things. I recommend using a chopstick or wooden skewer instead. You leave it in the soil for a minute, and if it comes out wet or with soil on it, you wait to water.

    I doubt a dense soil like this needed to be watered twice or three times since march. repot. snake plants like aerated, fast draining soil, not mud they suffocate in.

    I had this happen to a snake plant and it was that I was overwatering it. I took the plant out of soil to repot and got as much soil off roots as possible. Then I let sit out for 2 days to dry out before I repotted it. I now let the soil get completely dry before watering and I make sure the excess is drained out of drainage holes.

    succulents can be tricky in this way. it could’ve been overwatered from where you purchased it too.

    Snake plants don't require much water. I water mine every 4-8 weeks. Sometimes longer in the winter. 😊

    Check the roots. Remove any that may be bad and add perlite to your soil. Water when completely dry.
