Hmm yeah I would check the roots for rot

Completely agree. Same thing happened to me with my birkin (different plant I know) before her stem started turning entirely brown. I’d say check those roots and if it is rotting, cut off the black and mushy roots and treat it with 3% hydrogen peroxide.

would you reccomend i cut the stem completely or would it heal?
