What has happened to my peace lily? I have had this lovely plant for about 3 years. Since its last fertilise 7 days ago, it has been a droopy sad sight. What can I do to resurrect it?

    Check the soil, it looks thirsty

      The soil is moist, I think it’s overwatered and maybe I put too much fertiliser in the solution. Is that a thing?

    Yes over fertilizing is a big no no. Will kill ur plants pretty quick.

    It’s one plant I always had problems with. Mine did same. Soil was moist. So I figured overwatering. Changed out some soil, still no good. After many different attempts and various fixes, I was going to throw it out but decided to keep one of the rhizomes, or whatever, and several months later I have a new plant. So if you lose it try replanting.

    Wow! First- I'm soooo sorry!! Is it a new fertilizer? I'm so sorry, but I think ur fertilization might be actually killing ur gorgeous Peace Lily. If it's not too late? I'd repot immediately: seriously check & clean the roots of old soil. It's just me, but I'd purchase PREMIER potting medium for THIS endeavor. Best of luck!! Throw that nasty ass fertilizer out!! 🤗
