Update: I removed the plant from the soil and sure enough I had root rot and the soil was super soggy. The soil is dense, so I switched out the soil with a less dense and lighter organic soil with moisture control. I soaked the roots in hydrogen peroxide and now the plant seems to be revived. Leaves that were once brown have returned to their original color. I checked out my other plants and 3 of them had the same issue. I went ahead and repotted all of them and soaked their roots in hydrogen peroxide as well. Thank you to everyone for the help :) Original post: New plant mom here! I bought this pink polka dot plant a few weeks ago and it seems like its life will be cut short very soon. The leaves are turning brown and falling off and I'm not sure why. I live in a north facing apartment, so I have a grow light to compensate. I've been following the watering schedule provided by the planta app. Any suggestions of what I can do to bring it back to life?

      anything that is either mushy, dry or looks like its way too thin to be a root

    These ones also regularly shed their leaves even when happy.

    i water mine one the top 2 inches of soil are dry , you can check this by doing the cake stick method. ( stick a chop stick or something like that and see if any soil sticks to the stick. ) and i have mine in a window that gets some light but not much.

    Don’t follow the water schedule. Only use that as a suggestion. Check the soil first.
