# My nerve plant is wilting! I looked it up and it suggested more water…

_Posted by PRRoark on 2024-01-24_

My nerve plant is wilting! I looked it up and it suggested more water so I gave it water 6 days ago and it’s still wilting. It’s by an east facing window, has a humidifier, and is surrounded by other humid loving plants. The soil is still moist. It hasn’t perked up and I’m scared if I water again it’ll cause root rot. HELP.

Repotted and these are what the roots look like here’s a pic of the potting mix in. The drainage holes were clogged!
