My everfresh plant is droopy all of a sudden

I had this plant for over a year already. It has been growing well for the longest time. Then all of a sudden it’s all droopy and sad. Historically I have been watering it every alternate day, since it’s located indoors, right beside the window, and there are no issues. I’m not sure what’s wrong now. #silktree #everfresh #EverfreshTree #tree

Is the soil moist when you water? The soil need to be half dry when you water. Once every other day seems abit too much for indirect light

OR if there was any change in environment, could be it. Think temperature, water, heck these days rain so jialat might be the lack of light

Another yishun resident here! Lol
@Araceae Oh hello fellow Yishun resident.

The soil is usually semi dry, at about 1 inch down from the top. So far I’ve been doing alternate days, and no issue. Change in environment…. not really. It has always been here beside the window.

I just read up that it might be this thing called mimosa wilt disease? Where a fungus grows into the plant & blocks off the water tubes in the branches and trunk. I’m not sure if it’s that…. and how do I even diagnose it 😭

I did wonder if it’s the light. But today is quite sunny… and it’s still droopy 😭
@KingpinPilea maybe you should check the roots. Often an issue arises with the roots, especially with root pests, root rot or other factors
