Hello everyone! Thank you to those who provided me tips before! I started to water less and I also used mosquito dunks to get the gnats away. They are totally gone now. I also transferred my lemon plant into a smaller pot, changed the soil to a citrus and cactus one so it has better drainage, and cut off some of the brown tips.

Unfortunately the plant still isn’t growing. After it lost most of its leaves, it hasn’t grown any more of them back and it’s been the same height for a long time. I’m not sure what to do anymore.

You might need to mist it or put a humidifier nearby.

It still seems like it is in a way too large pot. What do the roots look like? Are there a ton of them for it to be in such a big pot? I’m still kind of new, and I just learned about pot sizes, but it may be something too look into.

Hey Krista! I already downsized from an 8 inch pot (which was way too big) to a 6 inch pot. Before bringing it indoors, my plant was still thriving in the 8 inch until it leaves dropped and I repotted it.
