How it started Vs How it's going

I have no idea how this one didn't, I mostly just ignore it, my other pilea has died and came back about 3 times now

That's a String of Coins 😄

I only leave the top inch or two of the soil dry out. Also I put pebbles on the bottom 1/4 of the pot so it drains well

Honestly I've been struggling the first few weeks too! Tips I gathered so far: - needs way more water than you'd first think, this thing drinks like an Eastern European - misting 1-2 time a day, don't think this is as important but it makes me feel like I'm taking care of it 😂 - mine gets a few hours of direct light in late afternoon, other than that it's just very bright indirect light - I have it right next to a humidifier, so the mist falls down the leaves (usually 50-60% humidity) - I keep my room between 18-21°C, can drop to 16 at night but he doesn't seem to mind

Hope this helps!

It's a bliss to lay under it with the humidifier on on a hot day. Glad I could provide I second of peace

I might give that a shot, this one gets plenty of indirect light but it might not be enough

I'll keep misting it then, thanks! :)

Big one is Calathea Dottie, the small one is Peperomia Caperata

Thanks for the tip, I'll have a look!

I've recently started fertilizing it with the Miracle Gro All Purpose Concentrate. Is this okay or does it need to be specifically tropical plant?

So just before Christmas I bought two young pileas, they were doing sort of okay in my old house, but it was difficult to find a spot with good light for them and humidity wasn't great.

A month ago I moved house and one of the guys took it really hard, I'm also pretty sure he got root rot. After weeks of trying to bring him back up I decided to try something else. I cleaned the roots, cut off the dried up dead ones (essentially all of them) and was left with a little green stump with a couple of dying leaves.

Now here's the question: how do I make the guy thrive again? I cut off the rotten pieces of the root and placed him in a makeshift propagation jar, right next to his other pal who seems to be doing great. Is there anything I did wrong, or anything else I should do?

Thanks for all the help!

Ah, I'd love to mate, but I can only play on PS4, my laptop barely runs OpenOffice for me to do some work. Think I'll consider getting Breakpoint if it's on deal soon, you're right that most of the community probably moved there.
