# Hello! Im really sad because I think I overwatered my baby rubber…

Hello! Im really sad because I think I overwatered my baby rubber plant and I don’t know if it will make it. I put it in well draining soil and changed her spot to a sunnier room. Do you think she’ll make it? She has lost almost all her leaves :(

I hate to see the decline 😭 if overwatered you’ll want to check the roots and if anything is mushy or stinky chop it off. Then I like to give the roots a little soak in water with hydrogen peroxide to help combat against rot. Hydrogen peroxide has been my favourite hack since I’ve started houseplanting. I’ve been able to save every plant I’ve ever overwatered or when a plant I was given/bought comes with rot.

Completely agree 👍 if you’re worried about it not making it after doing everything Nic here advised, you can err on the side of caution and take some leaf or stem cuttings, let them callous for a day or two, then stick them in a small pot filled with wet perlite or spagnum moss to propagate the plant and start anew with it. So sorry to see what’s happened to Carter. I really love my peperomias, so I really hope you find a way to save yours. Good luck! 🌱
