Repotting can usually stress the plant. You usually just need a bit of a time until the plant recovers. Also, make sure you do not overwater as it could add stress to the roots and cause root rot.

I don’t know about your plant, but sometimes, repotting can be a struggle for me. I’ve had to play with new soil mixtures and sunlight intensity after repotting. I use my fingers to check soil but I also use a moisture meter. Proper drainage of the soil is something I’ve been researching a lot. I learned plants that require good drainage will benefit from a drainage layer at the bottom of the the pot with the soil resting on top. I hope you can glean something useful from what I’ve learned :) @SubtleSeagrapes

@SubtleSeagrapes don't water her till it's completely dry

It just needs to acclimate to the new home

❤️🥰

Good luck

Let us know how it turns out 😉

Hey guys, I hate this plastic self watering pot for it. I pulled off a couple black stems and black leaves today. Not cool. I don’t know what to put this in. It was in its nursery pot which was of course plastic and it had good drainage with a drip tray under it. It had a lot of flowers then. Now it’s not doing well. This is why I hate repotting.
