# Help!! I think I may have overwatered 2 of my plants, how can I fix…

_Posted by Deslashaaa on 2025-06-25_

Help!! I think I may have overwatered 2 of my plants, how can I fix this?? I don’t wanna give my girls root rot 😭. It’s my String Of Bananas and Sedum (Sunsparkler DazzleBerry). They both have drainage holes and I have used a chopstick to poke some holes in the soil.

If they both have drainage holes you should be ok. Overwatering is about frequency of watering, not the volume of water given. Let them drain and carry on!

They do have water holes, it’s just my string of bananas some of them are starting to die?? And some of the strings are dying off. Is that okay?
