Why did Trader Joe’s fail me?

Question

I broke rules. I didn’t check the roots until after my trip. When I came home, all the little flowers had shriveled 😔. This is what I found strangling the roots. This stuff was tough. I also gave her new soil. Do you think Laverne will recover? 🤞🥺

I’m sorry! There are great deals to by had at TJ’s but they are no good at watering. I constantly have issues too. But they will refund. I had a mini monstera that looke great until it got home and I realized there is root rot and the whole plant was lost. But they gave me a return on the purchase.

@FreshWidow · Answer

I got an echeveria from the Sill that had its roots wrapped in this stuff. Any clue why they do that?

@Gotaleaf with poop? I have some gold fishes and I change their water everyday after they breath all the oxygen out of the tank, is it actually good for plant?

@Jilliebeanstalk · Answer

@UpbeatCapemay fish water is the bestest!!!!  An air stone will add O2 if that helps.  I just added goldfish to my male guppy tank and all hell broke loose health wise.  Ughhh what a mistake, I knew better.  There are 2 left and everyone is healthy again.
