My little string of frogs has gotten crispy. Whatβs wrong...
2β pot with drainage
Last watered 2 years ago
A crispy string of frogs often indicates an issue with either watering, light, or humidity. Here are a few things to check:
1. **Watering**: Ensure you are watering thoroughly but allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering or underwatering can both cause crispy leaves.
2. **Light**: Peperomia prostrata prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, making them crispy.
3. **Humidity**: These plants thrive in higher humidity. Dry indoor air, especially from heating or air conditioning, can lead to crispy leaves.
4. **Soil and Drainage**: Ensure the plant is in well-draining soil and that the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from sitting at the bottom, which can lead to root rot.
Adjusting these factors should help revive your string of frogs.
