She’s a elephant ear I got from my aunts backyard and I put her in a drain pot about a week ago and after two days the leaves started turning brown, she was kept inside so I put her outside where the sun mainly hits and this is her now ![2件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/rtV2AnYoNAr-EYqRRIgQ_24m-t583yqj_-d_2EaeVrA/TuX-xa8FQqmBNOLRqQcGAw.webp?size=large) ![2件中2件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/rtV2AnYoNAr-EYqRRIgQ_24m-t583yqj_-d_2EaeVrA/nnKaoX6VQxGdDfHoNY4xEg.webp?size=large) ## 14件のコメント ### Josieさんが2024-07-17にコメントしました Either shock from being moved into a pot, over watering would be my guess. It does look wet currently so make sure it’s dry before it gets more water and just keep an eye on it. Im sure it’ll bounce back ### Steffyさんが2024-07-17にコメントしました Currently raining so everyone’s outside I was expecting a new leaf so I will just bring her back inside ! ### M3ssybunnさんが2024-07-17にコメントしました Looks like it’s just stressed out. I would try a smaller pot and I would follow a regular schedule on watering and light. Too much light can cause the plant to turn and I believe that’s what happened was just the immediate change of environment. #### Steffyさんが2024-07-17に返信しました I currently do not have any pots could I do a glass jar? I’ve never had a elephant ear #### M3ssybunnさんが2024-07-17に返信しました If you don’t have any other pots then that’s okay too. But when you put it in this pot may I ask how many inches of soil was inbetween the roots and pot? #### Steffyさんが2024-07-17に返信しました I would say about 2-3 inches #### M3ssybunnさんが2024-07-17に返信しました I’d wait a little so you’re not stressing it out too much but I’d use that same pot but just add more soil to the pot if you can. Try getting some indoor potting soil I just use regular degular soil from Walmart. This pot is a little big but not too big. Let the roots have a place to go that’ll help the plant get her strength back😊 I love elephant ears they’re absolutely stunning once they mature #### Steffyさんが2024-07-17に返信しました Thank you so much!💚 _アプリでさらに2件の返信を見る_ ### M3ssybunnさんが2024-07-17にコメントしました Honestly I’d just stick to a regular routine and you should have a happy healthy pant! Hopefully this helps💚 #### Steffyさんが2024-07-17に返信しました Thank you! ### Sunnyさんが2024-07-17にコメントしました Replace the pot with a smaller one. Elephant ears like the soil to dry out. Too much soil will hold too much water the plant can’t use and rotten the roots. Check the soil is dry to the bottom before watering. Do not water on a strict schedule. Water only when the soil is dry. Recall the lighting at the location where this plant was growing in. Put it in that same lighting. Add rooting hormone powder to the roots to help the plant create new roots to support leaf growth. Fertilize with 50% diluted liquid fertilizer every two weeks in the growing season. 🍀🪴 ### Steffyさんが2024-08-06にコメントしました Doing much better now🤍💚 ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/rtV2AnYoNAr-EYqRRIgQ_24m-t583yqj_-d_2EaeVrA/SRJIVzZDRTKcoan8xoGUfw.webp?size=large) --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
