Have you checked for root rot?

#### Ant respondió el 2025-06-03

I posted some more pics does it look like root rot I cant really see in signs on the leafs except for two leafs are a little droopy but there also huge ? Should I take it out the pot and check out roots ?

### Ant comentó el 2025-06-03

Yes it doesn’t look like it has root rot so when I bought the plant it had a little brown on the edges so I snipped it off but it just comes back

### fuey comentó el 2025-06-03

Could you show us the soil/pot size?

If nothing else..  
Any plant that has the excessive white variegation on its leaves will eventually stop supporting those section(s) because they are useless to the plant. It’s because they don’t photosynthesize, only green sections can.

Is it getting a lot of bright direct light or is it under a grow light? The variegation may just be getting a little crispy from the bright light

#### Ant respondió el 2025-06-03

I got it outside during the day in a shady area with a par light reading of 300 to 500

### Wolfen 🐺 comentó el 2025-06-03

This is normal on high varigated plants. Supplement with Silica, every watering and it will stop
