    Hmm from that yellowing leaf on the right side, the plant may be overwatered? Better to err on the side of under watering than overwatering for snake plants. Let the soil dry out completely before watering. I water my snake plant roughly every 25 to 30ish days. The new growth looks pretty good. If adjusting your watering schedule doesn’t help would advise repotting using a cactus or succulent soil mix. Also clean the leaves in the evening with a damp cloth, make sure your pot has drainage, don’t forget to fertilize, and move to a different spot if you think it’s not getting enough light.(:

      I like to wipe my leaves with a dry microfiber cloth if I'm cleaning during the day. I'm terrible about keeping up with cleaning so when the mood strikes, I need to be able to wipe down at that moment lol

      i think that may be it, i left my plants with some family while i moved into my new apartment and got situated, i think they overwatered my snake plant and cactus bc they both had mold growing in the soil i didnt see. i had to repot the snake plant, but only gave the cactus new soil as it was less far along.

      Man that’s a bummer. Small plants can die so fast from root rot/overwatering. If you have good roots on that piece try potting in soil using a smaller nursery pot. Or try water propagating. I know lots of people have success with water props for snake plants.(:

    That’s a good system for dry cleaning! Tbh I don’t clean leaves often either lol. But when I do I prefer to use water or mild soap so have to do it in the evening to prevent leaf burning. I neverrrr mist my plants the way Planta keeps telling me to. Prefer the the leaves to stay dry and use a humidifier for moisture
