Can someone say why this is happening? Don’t think overwatering is the problem.

What is your watering schedule like?

#### Kashaela respondió el 2024-04-29

Once every week and a half or so? Maybe every two weeks

Does it get enough light? Check for pests first but I’d chop it down, check the roots to remove any rot, spray the roots with 3% peroxide, and repot in an airy mix (soil+perlite +cocoa coir) with drainage.

Not direct sunlight but in a bright room

is this a lucky bamboo? it probably needs to be closer to direct sun (but not too close or it’ll burn)
