HELP 🚨🚨🚨🚨 My Chinese ever green had root rot … I have trimmed off the mushy roots … peeled any black mushy pieces etc … should I trim it more ? And after I trim it I made a mixture of one part peroxide two parts water with fresh water … how long do I leave it in that clean water before replanting ? The 3rd pic ..I might jus throw out but I do see nodes on it The last pic is after I have cleaned them carefully.. cut off the what needed to go then I cleaned them with the solution now I am allowing them to air dry I know the tips look alil brownish and honestly there no mushiness to them at all

    They look clean and ready for recovery. I had a similar situation and placed mine in a jar for a water to prop. They seem to bounce back quickly. Good luck!

    Root rot is the worst! I feel your pain. Just found a plant in my collection with root rot on Monday. Good call on the gloves. The cleaning process stained my fingernails so every time I see my fingers I'm reminded of the mush. Gross. Hopefully the peroxide wash and dry off will get your plant back on track!

    They look ready to prop. The third picture/stem piece, you could do the “wet stick” prop.
