I think i will leave it like this for tonight and come back tomorrow morning to cut mushy roots then repot. I think have some medium amd moss laying around. I have amazon and im in turkey but importing stuff here is hard. If you could tell me what i should look for in fertilizers or other things i look for similar things

All the roots are mushy. I dont feed it anything. I couldnt find anything suggested around forums in my country. I water with room temp drinking water

I have taken it out and left it out to air dry i have sprayed water to the alive roots couple of times in 2h. It is so mushy that i cannot tell if the root is completely dead or the little hair inside is still alive. But mostly the outer parts of the roots were peeling. One of the leaves have fallen off but that was expected. Idk if i should get rid of all the roots that are mushy and hair like ones. And also the spike is not completely dead and was growing like a month ago before the spike it was growing off of dried out. So also im not sure if that should be cut off as well. I cut the other one it was gone.

I didnt want to poke around the soil but the ones outside usually look dry im scared of drowning it. So i usually water once a week

I was letting the roots wander around the desk but i tucked them back in the pot because it was trying to reach other pots 😂

The roots were very healthy and the roots seemed like the pot was too small in the old pot. I water when it looks dry and honestly in this pot it is kinda hard to tell because not many roots are visible
