Repotted in tropical soil with perlite, sprayed roots which (didn’t seem to have root rot), and have been giving plenty of sun (natural and have tried a grow light). No sign of any pests since I got him. Leaves are droopy, but not dried out. No dropping leaves. The diagnose feature has been very inconsistent about over vs under watering as the issue. I have a humidifier on the way in hopes that might help. Any advice of how to revive him? My other croton is thriving and I am hoping to give this lil guy a chance too! Also open to propagating if that’s best (but never have with this plant before) Thanks everyone!☺️ ![3件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/n0SDZkkAEBIjSMPWM9Rckgl-FuAePa7SGFBZmO3LMlg/qCYSijkzRv2k9aO3HMfsOQ.webp?size=large) ![3件中2件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/n0SDZkkAEBIjSMPWM9Rckgl-FuAePa7SGFBZmO3LMlg/EgjdH7RMSnauMv7JnOBz0A.webp?size=large) ![3件中3件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/n0SDZkkAEBIjSMPWM9Rckgl-FuAePa7SGFBZmO3LMlg/oXBhVCpCR-eBt8EtW41rfg.webp?size=large) ## 7件のコメント ### Tomさんが2025-09-03にコメントしました Too much water? Root rot is hard to manage. ### Ayhudさんが2025-09-03にコメントしました This lil one has been a challenge, but might be turning up! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I took off leaves, moved to smaller pot and rubber banded a plastic ziplock with slits as a makeshift humidity dome. Put under a grow light ~ 12 hrs a day. Most lightly every 2-3 days. Two weeks later and the stem is more green and I am seeing little buds on the stem! Hoping it keeps going in this direction! ### Nicoleさんが2025-09-04にコメントしました I have a croton question if you can help me… I’ve had a little one for 6 months now. He seems to be doing well (bright green leaves with a little color) but he has not grown at all! He’s lost a couple leaves as well. You said you have a thriving croton… do they just grow reallllly slowly? lol. I’d appreciate any advice you have! #### Ayhudさんが2025-09-04に返信しました Honestly I am a newb to crotons and have a lot to learn! I hear they really like humidity and bright indirect light. I have mine under a grow light for 12 hrs a day and near a humidifier. Just took the dome / bag off today to see if it’ll do okay 🤞🏻 Someone recommended I cut the leaves that are crispy / not doing well to focus growth on roots, stem and other leaves. Not sure if that helps at all! #### Nicoleさんが2025-09-04に返信しました It does! Thanks for responding and best of luck for your little plant!! #### Ayhudさんが2025-09-05に返信しました You too! ☺️ ### PlantMommaBさんが2025-09-14にコメントしました I have mine in potting soil and water when the top is dry. --- _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_
