I’ve only had it for a few days. I haven’t watered it because it was sitting in water at the store. What do I do to help it? ![2개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/jiRKONbJW2kRSYUB8D0IbeY7STxvZnEinY7qV-ynEVY/G7yNymzYSYKN2M50P-2jpA.webp?size=large) ![2개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/jiRKONbJW2kRSYUB8D0IbeY7STxvZnEinY7qV-ynEVY/U8Hhio0iQkWelDn0PEImTg.webp?size=large) ## 16개의 댓글 ### Adrian님이 2025-02-18에 댓글을 남겼어요. I’d definitely check the roots for damage or rot to start, especially if it was originally sitting in water at the store. And just wanted to let you know your peperomia is a marbled peperomia obtusifolia, not a Ginny. If there’s any root rot, feel free to come back and I can walk you through how to treat the rot if you’d like. If the roots look good and it’s a new purchase, it’s possible it’s going through some serious shock from entering a new home, especially if it’s cold this season where you live. Hope this helps! #### Lauren님이 2025-02-18에 답변했습니다. Thank you for letting me know! Also, I’ll take a look at them and see and let you know what they look like. Hoping for the best.. ### KJM님이 2025-02-18에 댓글을 남겼어요. Often times those little pots that plants come in do not have a drain hole. If it does have a drain hole I would follow Adrian's advice. If it does not have a drain hole I would repot it as soon as possible into something with appropriate drainage. You should probably even let it drain and dry a little in the air, maybe even a little fresh soil without disturbing too many of the roots before you put it into a new pot #### Lauren님이 2025-02-18에 답변했습니다. Thank you for the advice! I’ll take a look at the roots and see if there the problem. ### Carolinagreenthumb님이 2025-02-19에 댓글을 남겼어요. First thing I thought was get it out of the water! Mine has gotten flopsy mopsy and I input it and let the soggy soil fall off the roots then put it into dry Miracle Grow Cactus, Palm and Citrus potting mix. It seems to be a good soil for my houseplants here in SW FL. Hope it recovers! 🪴 #### Lauren님이 2025-02-19에 답변했습니다. I put it into a cactus and all purpose soil mix shortly after I brought it home. Do you think that would be okay? Also, I remembered that those are three separate plants in one pot, so I’m wondering if I need to put it into a separate pot? #### Carolinagreenthumb님이 2025-02-19에 답변했습니다. That should have read “unpot”it….🙂 ### Adrian님이 2025-02-20에 댓글을 남겼어요. Hey, there 👋 thought I’d ask for an update if you still need help with your peperomia. Did you get to check the roots? 😶 #### Lauren님이 2025-02-21에 답변했습니다. I haven’t been able to take a look just yet. Hopefully will be able to tomorrow! #### Adrian님이 2025-02-21에 답변했습니다. Got it! Fingers crossed that there the roots are alright! 🤞 #### Lauren님이 2025-03-03에 답변했습니다. Sorry, had the flu. The roots look fine! They don’t stink, and they appear to be healthy! I did repot the plant as soon as I got it because I didn’t know you wasn’t supposed to, but now this is all that I have left :( ![2개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/jiRKONbJW2kRSYUB8D0IbeY7STxvZnEinY7qV-ynEVY/3flW-t5JSFSvHkyflefKHg.webp?size=large) ![2개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/jiRKONbJW2kRSYUB8D0IbeY7STxvZnEinY7qV-ynEVY/cZGl-YDST2OgGCww52DuUg.webp?size=large) #### Adrian님이 2025-03-03에 답변했습니다. Sorry to hear that 🫤 at least the roots are healthy, though! Now that it’s warming up again, hopefully it’ll start to recover and work on some new growth since it doesn’t have to focus on root development. Are you still looking for any help with it? Also, from the photos you attached, it looks like the plant you’re showing now isn’t a peperomia, so was this planted with the peperomia as well, or did you mean to post about this plant somewhere else? If this was planted with the peperomia, it looks like you’ve got a dieffenbachia or prayer plant there, which has different care needs than a peperomia, so if they were potted together that could explain the problems you had with both plants. #### Lauren님이 2025-03-03에 답변했습니다. I apologize 🤦🏽‍♀️ wrong plant lol. The original plant on this post, I haven’t taken out and looked at just yet. It still looks the same and the leaves are still healthy, so I figured it’s just because I have 3 individual plants potted into the same pot and maybe that’s why they’re leaning? With this peperomia plant, it is dying left and right. I can’t seem to keep it happy. I did move it to a smaller pot since it was in a rather big pot for its root size, and hoping it does better :( _앱에서 3개의 답글 더 보기_ --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
