# Hi!! So I've had this colocasia mojito since January and he actually…

Hi!! So I've had this colocasia mojito since January and he actually got frozen by accident from transferring him home so he had one baby leaf survivor for a lil but but came back to life and was doing great. He gave me multiple new leaves. But recently I've been fighting thrips and have been treating my plants (including this guy but it doent look like it has them). I moved it to my bathroom that has a window when it previously was under growlights. And it was doing okay but than suddenly all his leaves started yellowing and drying up. I was late to his watering once. But he's continuing to dry up. I've moved him back to my growlights hoping that would help. But I'm wondering if I should just be patient or is there anything else I should do. Cause i really don't want him to die 🥲

Snip bad leaves, but if all of them are in bad condition, pick the one that has the least amount of damage and looks the best, and DONT snip that one. Neem oil works as pesticide and I like to use orange, peppermint, and cinnamon as pesticide. I sprinkle cinnamon (it’s a fine powder) onto plants that take a long time to callus after propagating. I also spray my monstera’s leaves with a spray that includes cinnamon, orange, peppermint and white fir in the evening for the ones that are fighting pests. Good luck!

These are his last two leaves 😭 i already cut off two that were worse. Thanks for the tips!! I have been using neem oil. Haven't tried cinnamon tho

If any parts seem mushy, like the stem, water a little extra next time. If the roots are mushy, dial back on the watering a lil bit.
