Root rot!

#Peperomia #planttherapy #succulentsquad #propogationstation #newplantmom
Help! My pepperoni was doing very well at one point. She got root got some how or developed something bacterial? I reported her but she just keeps rotting I work know what to Do!! I i have a leaf propagating but it looks like it's rotting slowly in the water, can I save her??? I don't have rooting hormones, she was doing well in a low nutrient regular potting soil, but it must have gotten to much water, I reported to a orchids mix and she's not doing well.
6โ€ pot without drainage
Last watered 5 months ago
Did you apply peroxide to the roots. And trim the rot?
You have to cut off all the rotten roots and spray the remaining ones with 3% peroxide before putting back in the soil. It could be possible that the fungus spread to the prop as well, so if it has enough roots I would trim the rotting ones and spray with peroxide and try again, or just discard that prop and start fresh
I'm sorry to hear that, I hope you're successful in removing all the rot
I hope your baby recovers ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ˜ข
Hi all! I was really late into helping her so I decided to propagate the remaining leafs, I don't have a rooting hormone so I used alot Vera I heard may help, I hope she roots so I can have another chance at saving her, praying!!
