Mine is dying too.  
It water it carefully, kept it under grow light near humidifier. But no change to it’s health. It’s shedding leaves like crazy 😢

Did you check for rubber bands around the roots before you repotted it?

#### Kiran antwoordde op 2024-02-01

I noticed that but didn’t remove it. Should I have removed that?

#### Nicole antwoordde op 2024-02-01

You should absolutely remove them and possibly repot. Mine is in a sunny window and I water every 16 days.

I actually repotted them last month cause I got worried by the leaves shedding that it’s got root rot. Turned out it wasn’t.  
I have removed the rubber bands, hoping for it to recover 🙁

I repotted mine in winter due to fungal gnats and has rebounded. I don’t think I did a great job making my own soil mix.  
Nicole, what kind of soil did you use and do you think your plant likes it?
