Any reason my pilea bottom leaves would be drooping so much? I recently repotted him as his soil was staying moist for too long. He was doing well after the repot but now seems to be drooping again 🥲 added second picture from before for reference.

i could be wrong, but i believe that’s just the nature of the plant as it gets older!

both of these photos show healthy plants! i’m not sure which one you’re concerned about

has the lighting changed at all?

To me it looks it's just growing, so stems look longer, if so, leaves may be heavier too!?

They both look like healthy plants. Just growing.
