Snow White Possibly Dying 😭

#SnowWhiteWafflePlant

Hello! My Snow White is, of course, very finicky. Using diagnosis tools it's either having issues with being under OR over watered. The leaves are crispy at the ends and edges and some are brown in those places as well. I've tried watering it a little less and more recently watering it a little more but she will not bounce back. I actually checked the pH level today and it's at 5.0 which is very acidic and not good. Any suggestions on how to lower the pH level or fix my watering issues?

Your help is greatly appreciated! πŸ™‚
2ft to light, direct
5” pot with drainage

Hi! I have a purple waffle plant and he had been giving me those same issues. He just wasn’t happy no matter what I did. I switched his soil to a chunky coarser soil and started bottom watering him and he looks great now. I hope this was helpful, good luck!
Did you check the roots? I wonder if that planter doesn’t let enough water evaporate. I read something about glazed planters before. It’s a gorgeous plant!
Thanks so much to both of you ladies! I also have a purple waffle plant as well. It's in a plastic pot and it's been thriving since the get go! I'll try both of those ideas one at a time. πŸ™‚
