Can I fix the rot here?

#whalefin #rot
Hi! I recently removed 2 pups from my whale fin and it has started to rot on one side. Is there anything I can do to save it? Or is he a goner?

@PlantLady01 Hi there!

I think your best bet is to take it out of it’s pot and cut off the part that’s rotting with sterilized scissors. If you find any mushy roots, you should also cut those off. Dip the cut part of your plant in cinnamon to prevent any pathogens from getting into the cut. Make sure to re-pot into fresh, well draining soil and a clean pot with drainage. Hope this helps! πŸͺ΄πŸ˜Š
I agree the only thing I would change is to not water for a couple days after repotting. Great call Sunny
