thank you! i have been watering it but it’s been like this for about 5 days and i wasn’t sure! guess ill have to be a bit more patient 🤣

### jamie commented on 2026-08-05

yeah it takes a few weeks

Yes! I’ve revived plants that were in much worse condition.

Rule of thumb: if there is green, it has a chance. Even if it’s mostly roots or stem only, depending on the plant, it can survive!

My go to for rehabbing a plant is putting it into stratum/perlite. Plants always tend to take well to Stratum’s nutrients. I’d say I have a 95% revive rate using stratum/perlite. Use the perlite for aeration and also bc the stratum breaks down and the perlite slows that process down. Good luck!
