I can tell exactly what the issue is but if it’s getting below around 55 where you are if might just be going dormant but I also see the left side of the soil is wet but the rest looks dry so it might just be that the water isn’t where the plant is.

It’s still around 80 here but I’ll be changing the pot for sure

Smaller pot!!!

### plantgeek commented on 2026-09-13

buried too deep \& needs a smaller pot. the roots should be able to touch the sides of the pot
