The ever-dying begonia
I’ve been ready to yeet this plant out the window for like 2 months. It’s looked like this since February and won’t improve no matter what I do. I’ve repotted into fresh mix, treated for pests, adjusted watering schedule, and moved it all around the house to see if changing up the lighting helps. What’s her problem? 😩
8ft to light, indirect
4” pot with drainage

@SimpleSucc yes, it’s hard to tell in the original picture but the leaves are all brown and curling.
@heyitsplantbae that looks like physical damage to me. Just a word of caution, there's definitely such as thing as doing "too much" with a plant and worsening preexisting issues. Repotting causes stress, moving around constantly causes stress. Depending on what pest treatments you used, most of them aren't beneficial for the plant and should only be used after confirming the presence of pests.
Your plant card says it's in a pot without drainage, is that correct?

@stephonicle just updated the plant card since it was incorrect, yes that pot it’s in does have drainage and it came to me with a case of thrips though I didn’t know it at the time 😩
Do you water only when the soil is totally dry? That’s what I do and mine is looking slightly wilted. Maybe these plants need water slightly more often than that.
