Hi everyone! I have a flame violet and I got it about it a month ago. In the nursery pot, it was super crowded so I repotted it into this shallow pot and even did a humidity bag for about 2 weeks but now it’s having leggy growth and doesn’t seem to be doing well. Any tips on what to do next? I love this plant and really want it to do well.

From my experience they hate being repotted. Do what you do to plants that thrive and just wait for it to do well before you prune and stuff.
