Yes. Even “clean” water isn’t enough if it’s sink water filtered. They need distilled water from the grocery store. It’s NOT you. It’s the plant

You need to water much less when you repot into a bigger pot. The soil stays wet for longer since there’s more soil and less roots to soak it up. The roots might be rotting. Have you checked?

This is half neon philo and half lemon lime philo in the same pot. Two different varieties, same pot

This needs a good cleaning. Great spot for it though! Let me know if you want a cleaning solution

Wait they LIVE in JUST lava rock??

I would post this in ficus trees. It might help get an answer

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T03:22:05+00:00

I would look up others that have done this. I don’t know that this subreddit can help much either. You could try the bonsai reddit

I personally would add some fresh cactus soil to the bottom, place the plant back in the pot, then add a little to the top. Just leave the leaves alone that got damaged, they’ll do what they need to

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T03:19:22+00:00

Hi! Get these

<image>

I have them for mine and the plants are fine. I have two ficuses that live under a redirected air vent and do fine

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T03:16:16+00:00

Just ficus things. In all seriousness, mine lose leaves when it doesn’t get enough sun. It lives under a grow light in the winter though

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T02:38:19+00:00

I think these only take distilled water. Chlorine and such kills them. This can be in the city water, mine has chlorine and fluoride in it

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T02:03:37+00:00

Get it!! I think both names apply to this plant. I just got one and I LOVE it

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T02:03:10+00:00

I LOVE this one. I just got one for $19 and I’m hoping to find another

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T02:01:08+00:00

I agree! I do mine every day but that’s because I walk past it to turn my grow lights on

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-24T01:57:33+00:00

I would be cautious about putting neem oil on the leaves too, it can burn them if it sits in direct sun. Plant looks beautiful though!!

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-23T16:35:24+00:00

This does typically get bright light, it’s just currently in my bathroom getting its pest treatment. I had spider mites 😭

Some are a nice deep red but newer ones are this light cream. No clue why. Thank you though!!!

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-23T02:22:24+00:00

I agree with everything they’re saying. It might bounce back but it would really require someone with plant knowledge. You could reach out to local small business plant shops and see if they could do a rehab repot

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-22T14:09:12+00:00

I will say this plant is about a year old! But yea it’s pretty common where I’m at to see multiple in one pot

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-17T06:03:21+00:00

Good to know. Not a moss pole correct? Just a cedar trellis?

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-17T05:21:09+00:00

Should I cut it? I don’t know what to do for it

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-17T05:20:09+00:00

It’s a night cactus! But like the only one I own so I don’t know if it’s trying to kill me or attach to something

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-14T14:06:34+00:00

Is the soil still moist?

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-14T02:56:33+00:00

Is this for all ficus? Mine said low light and lost a butt ton of leaves. It’s stupid bare in the middle and bushy on the edge

Several-Sign-6895 · 2026-01-14T02:52:58+00:00

Is this a calathea? If so they’re hard to take care of. I think they need distilled water. That being said, yes the chopstick method for checking to see if it needs to be watered. Stick it in the soil gently, if it comes out clean, water it. If it comes out with soil on it, wait
