Really concerned about my Fat Boy

Hi all

I have repotted my philodendon martinum recently while moving house. Ever since I've done so it's looking really sad, and the thick petioles are all softening, leaves are getting pailer and I'm worried about the external temperature here as well which is only 10-20 degrees cels most days. Any advice? #Philodendron #martianum #fatboyclub #fatboy

I think your plant just needs time to acclimate after the move and repotting. It looks ok, just continue the care you were giving, time and patience it should perk up πŸ‘πŸŒΏπŸŒ±
@forge The most likely causes of drooping philodendron are underwatering and overwatering. Ensure a consistent watering schedule; water when the top 2-3 inches of soil is dry. Other common causes include excessive heat, low humidity, cold drafts, fertilizer burn, nutrient deficiency, and repotting shock.

Plus I see it’s in direct sunlight. They like indirect sunlight. The leaves will get damaged in direct sunlight. I suggest moving it to a location to get indirect sunlight.

Plus with the move acclimating to the new environment.
