I鈥檇 suggest repotting in a chunkier mix, Zz plants are native to the dry lands of Africa ### eatyacarbs coment贸 el 2024-07-20 Cut that off and stop watering it. They want to rely on the water stored in the rhizomes before being watered again ### send\_nodes coment贸 el 2024-07-20 I agree with the other comments. Just wanted to post a pic of ZZ plant roots in case you haven鈥檛 seen them before - the rhizomes kinda look like potatoes!! They hold A LOT of water so they can go a very long time without it. I only water my ZZ every 3 months or so (but of course this depends on the plant鈥檚 environment) ![Adjunto 1 de 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/JlnStFGeiSPk-PCyka66H2QuqzEW7fvw7GHufjEtqvo/s9t3GgeZSva0M6GkMxPMXQ.webp?size=large) ### Mr Plant Guy coment贸 el 2024-07-20 Need more light and a lot less water. Only water every 2 months or so --- _La comunidad de Planta (https://getplanta.com). La lectura est谩 abierta a todo el mundo.
