Hi all! Please help 😠my snake plant is not doing well, we repotted roughly 2-3 weeks ago (she was way overdue for a repotting and she was doing really well) We are planning to repot her tonight/tomorrow but any tips for this would be really appreciated! Thank you so much
I’ve had a snake plant die from transplant shock. I know they love being really tight in their pots. Maybe down size slightly?

2 likesMy snake Lazarus...had bad root rot, nearly all the roots were gone. Got him in a smaller pot. They like to be root bound, and bottom watered to help the roots to stretch down and not have the water sit on top on the leaves. He is healing and looks happy. Lost 1 leave, but came back from the dead. I also read snakes like to be neglected and abandoned too so less is best.

I’m thinking we should bring her back together with her babies, remove the dead ones, pot all the way at the bottom, add soil, bottom water, and let her be - any tweaks here you’d suggest? Thank you so much!! This was very helpful advice :)
Some more photos before the repotting of death occurred :(
Didn’t know this! Oh boy I just repotted mine bc it was about to tip over! I’ll leave it be for long time to come now.
