Hey, I bought this Moon Valley Pilea from TJ’s a month ago and i suspect it was already dealing with root rot, the leaves just keep browning and dropping , is there any salvaging? I tried letting her dry out thoroughly and sitting in my window but nothing seems to help

From what I can tell, that soil looks quite heavy/dense. Does it seem to be staying wet or holding a lot of moisture in the soil? Personally, I would repot into a looser more well draining mix and use the time repotting to assess the roots for rot!
