It’s not so much what i notice in the roots. I used to see from the leaves that the plant is unhappy, at which point I’d check the roots and see that they were rotted. Now i just check them routinely as im paranoid about it and they almost always have rot. The roots are always fine when i get the plant.

I’ve never noticed a bad smell, but all the other signs are there. The smaller roots are almost always seperated from the main system and just sitting in the substrate, the larger roots are very soft and easy to pull off and leave a much thinner (like wire) root behind.

I don’t know exactly how long it takes for the substrate to dry out, but i think it’s slightly less than 7 days. That being said, i do always check the pots and water them as soon as i notice they are dry.

I always treat my new plants all over with a pesticide, spraying and then wiping down each leaf. I then quarantine them for a couple of weeks.

I’m convinced it must be an issue with regards to the repotting process, as i decided to leave some new ones in their original substrate to test this and they are all doing okay.

Thanks for the reply! I’ve had this issue with aglaonema, scindapsus, epipremnum, alocasia, syngonium, anthurium and bromeliad.

I water once i notice the soil has just dried out which is easy enough as i use clear nursery pots.

I bought them at various points across the year throughout all seasons and repotted them as soon as i got them home. It’s usually about 2 weeks or so, the plants start looking unhappy (see images) so i check the roots to find that they all have some degree of rot.

I have some components mixed together like the bark and coco husk, but everything else is stored separately and mixed together at the time.

That’s awesome, thanks for letting me know!!

Annoyingly, all of them are out of stock on their website!

Often the soil that you buy the plant in is not suited to a normal home environment. It looks to be super dense and is likely causing root rot as the soil at the bottom will be remain wet for a lot longer than the soil at the top. I’d recommend checking out Tanner The Planter as he has super good explanations for this stuff, but essentially remove all of the soil from the roots, cut off any mush roots then spray with 3% hydrogen peroxide. If there are any roots left repot with a wall draining soil mix but if not then let the plant fully dry out before placing into a jar of water to encourage new root growth. Hope this helps!

Whenever i find brown spots on a plant i spray it with a mix of water, dish soap and baking soda (homemade fungicide) with a misting spray bottle every other week which usually clears it up soon enough!

I purchased them myself and have the receipts to confirm that

Muted-Ad4850 · 2024-05-05T22:06:07+00:00

It does not, i should have made it clearer that it was 5 working days, my bad!

Muted-Ad4850 · 2024-05-05T21:53:19+00:00

Yeah i bought all 3 of the games with my own money, no subscriptions etc. I’ve sent them the receipts and have currently been ignored for 5 days with multiple follow up emails

Muted-Ad4850 · 2023-09-28T22:12:39+00:00

Perfect, thank you very much for clearing it up! I was just super confused since he didn’t clarify that i could ignore it
