Well I watered it last on May 28th and I’ve snoozed watering it multiple times. I watered it a few days ago. And then this mushroom popped up. The soil takes forever to dry and I have no idea why #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-18에 답변했습니다. 🚨 that’s a good indicator that’s it holding onto too much water and you might have a bigger problem on your hands. i’ll tell ya that i had a similar problem recently and learned that these plants will \*silently rot\*. I would get it out of there, get eyes on the roots. and get it a new more well draining soil. my zygo was taking forever to dry out - which is all wrong for these epiphytes — the leaves all looked “fine” — but it was barely growing and it should have been (summer!) so I pulled it out — turns out it was quietly rotting!!! i downsized the pot and put it into perlite, fine orchid bark, and earthworm castings. she’s on the mend #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-18에 답변했습니다. my plant was huge like yours and this is what i found 😅 ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/437cvweqbki9dm3WGwIgPKYbWJm3edDRYD1cwUaz2Sw/DZ8nOqo9RbKdTTzBDvAZhQ.webp?size=large) #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-18에 답변했습니다. healing! ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/437cvweqbki9dm3WGwIgPKYbWJm3edDRYD1cwUaz2Sw/qYV_h00JQKu-0ScyASEQSw.webp?size=large) #### Miranda님이 2024-08-18에 답변했습니다. Yea it’s been rotting for awhile where the thick wooded branches turn to mush…I’ve been using cactus soil so I guess that’s not good enough. I just repotted it with new soil in March. _앱에서 9개의 답글 더 보기_ ### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-18에 댓글을 남겼어요. I love the three pots plan!

This is the rotting one that I won’t be replanting but the roots don’t smell and loook fine ### Miranda님이 2024-08-18에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/GfPuYcvScYE19QE6aYuQp6tIsaQjxdBLSCbbgEeMdbI/ihJuIMyGSkSRoUj_8LNHnw.webp?size=large) #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-19에 답변했습니다. yes ok this looks great! you have lots of good roots but your pot is too big — a downsize and a better draining soil plus some time will turn this baby around ### Plants are friends님이 2024-08-19에 댓글을 남겼어요. The soil needs to dry out like a cactus. Use perlite in the soil to help the soil dry out --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
