Hi! Newbie here. This is my string of dolphins, it’s turning brown at the roots and falling off. I’ve recently started using a grow light due to not a lot of sun exposure. Any thoughts on what to do? Thanks in advance.

    Turning brown and falling off is probably root rot which is due to the roots staying wet too long - happens to the best of us! It could be salvageable, you’d have to check the roots and take off anything mushy/smelly/rotten and then disinfect the rest with hydrogen peroxide. If you want more info on what exactly to do if you’re planning to save it I can say more
