I struggled so hard then I did a mix of succulent soil, pumice, orchid bark, worm castings, coco cor, charcoal and I finally became a good peperomia Mom.
Omg this exact same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago!!!!! I overwatered so all the petioles and leaves became extremely soft and just fell on the side like completely dead!!! (Looked way worse than urs) I thought it’s going to die for sure but after changing the soil and let it dry out completely for 10 days and then bottom watering it it came back to life the next day!!!
Try cutting a couple of leaves in half while they are rooting....it lightens the load for the plant and allows more energy for roots if it has less foliage to try and keep alive. Ur main plant didn’t seem too bad....she looked stressed. Likely from handling. They can take a month to recover and stand back up. When I repot this type plant, I bury it a little further than I usually would since the stems are fleshy and can root separate from the main root ball....I would set it away from direct light and not water it for a good two weeks.... til the soil pulls away from the sides of the pot OR after a “dry” reading on a hydrometer for 4 days straight. Repotting this guy is like....”okay, u want me to start over....I’ll show you”. 🤦♀️😂 off come the leaves until there’s only a few sad stems left and to doing that to conserve energy. With ones that have leaves so big I have also cut most stems off and left only 5-6 attached to the main root ball....and then cut 2 of those in half to help even more. ur not as much worried about the sight of it at this point as u are saving it....so ensuring it has more energy to spend on its feet is first priority. Good luck! Ur plants are beautiful! OH!!! Be sure the Peperomia is not near an air vent. They hate sudden temp changes ;)
BamaMom0225 thank you so much for the tips 😭😭🙏🏼 I’m definitely gonna cut some leaves in half & let her bounce back! Hopefully in a month she’ll be happy again 🥰
Ah this is so helpful! I've always wanted a watermelon peperomia and mine arrived from Bloomscape totally destroyed. Every day another stem just falls off 😭 hopefully I can use these tips to help!
My peace lillies with huge happy leaves suddenly started declining like this. I also tried adjusting location, light, I changed the soil like you did. I leached the soil, I pulled the plant out of the pot and kept in newspaper to help it drain/air out, I put the rootball in a fan to help it dry out. I tried poking a skewer in the dirt to let air in. Any video or technique i could find i tried. It continued declining over a week, just limp. Nothing helped until I tried a dilute hydrogen peroxide solution around the edges of the pot and new soil. It was hissing/bubbling, i felt like the plant was crying to me, like how could you do this, Im melting, what a wicked world etc. lol. but anyway, after an hour I rinsed regular water over the soil, and let it drain. It finally stopped further declining. it is still recovering, Its been 10 days and its stable now, off life support, but at least it didnt die. I have had them for months, no changes in environment. I don't know if I over watered and there was root rot, or a virus, or the cat put a hex on them. But the H2O2 saved them.
I know how you feel, but maybe it's the potting soil, my plants DO NOT like miracle grow, my grandmother swore by Black Magic potting soil, so do I, it's really good
The same thing happened to me. All my stems fell off one by one even though the roots were fine. It’s stem rot from top watering. It’s best to bottom water peperomias.
I just bought a watermelon pepperoni and I’m so scared of killing mine. How did your propagation go? I may try to propagate mine before I potentially kill it.
Ash...well i am a 60 year old and i have never had problems with miracle grow, i grow indoor and outdoor plants, for food,for flowers, and for looks! Never had any problems...soooo, whats everyones problems or issues? It is not water retention, lots of plants need that, its not being too dry, lots of plants need that also! Miracle grow has been a great soil and i have been using it for several decades with great success! So my plants have not suffered from being too wet or too dry! Maybe it has more to do with how much attention you pay to your plants?
I love your videos but the volume is so low I can barely hear you. Is there someway to make it clearer I have volume turned all the way up and I still can't hear 🥺
I live in California and none of my local nurseries carry it. They're kind of expensive online. I ordered mine from the Mercari selling app. It was shipped from New York for a total cost of $14.00
I just got the plant last week. It is rather small with only 4 leaves. I heard it grows into a full size plant in about 6 months. I'm taking good care of it, so hopefully it will thrive.
Eva C. I live in california too and found 2 at my local grocery store! One was smaller less leaves and i found a hidden one with a much fuller look and more leaves! I took it 🌿🥺 they were each $9.99
I have another type and he grew so much he was tiny when i first got him from a neighbor but i repotted him and now hes all sad even tho i did what i always do :((

Please share how much of each... the struggle is real

Shimoncz lmao sounds like I didn’t need to chop up my plant after all 🤦🏼♀️ at least I have a piece of it potted 😂
Did you water it after reporting or let it stay dry?
You should try to put him in a smaller pot! They love to be root-bound.
Your right on that
They love being root bound

Awwwwe hope you was able to save your plant and these are all great methods.

The same is happening to mine. Thanks for the tip, I might save at least part of it hopefully
Always here to support plant people. You go girl 💪
Lol thank youuu, I appreciate it 😊🌱
Thanks for the propagation tips-great info! I hope it does well & look forward to an update!
Janie Harvey thanks! I’ll be sure to update soon :-)
It looks pretty good at this end. Good luck
doowopshopgal thank you!
Ive killed two WPs. I just bought the 3rd one. I'm not ready to give up. Huhuhuhu
Same me too
Hey mate any update on how the propigation went in the differnt ways you tried
I just bought a watermelon pepperoni and I’m so scared of killing mine. How did your propagation go? I may try to propagate mine before I potentially kill it.
Why is everyone against miracle grow? I really would like to know....is there some really bad reason?
Fungus gnats
It just holds on to water too much. So it’s likely your plant will die from the soil not drying out as soon as it should

Hi there you can also mix the soil of the plants have been alive with the soil of the dying plant
I have to look to see if you posted an update.
Where did you get that neat spray bottle? Would you suggest bottom watering as someone said below?
You can find them on amazon
Also I absolutely live your channel! Keep up the fantastic work! Plant love!!!
❤
I love your videos but the volume is so low I can barely hear you. Is there someway to make it clearer I have volume turned all the way up and I still can't hear 🥺
I love plants!!!!
doowopshopgal me too! It’s an addiction 🙊
Well aren’t you something! I had no idea I could propagate Peperomia leaves!
Patricia Lisowski one of them has started to root 🙊
I hope it works and no more carita triste ☹️
It looked fine to begin with just lop sided???
It’s gorgeous!! It might have needed a smaller pot though! Ughh!! I really want one of these plants now!! It’s beautiful
love it 😍
🥰🥰🥰
I don't speak English, I'm using the google translator. I want to know if all the peperomies can be spread in water?
yes they can all grown in water :)
Did any of your watermelon props work? I’m propping the last of my leaves in succ soil too. Actually praying to all the gods it works 🤣😅
These are so difficult to find where I live
it was tough for me too /: so that's why i hope this one lives! i hope you find one soon :)

@@e.c.8951 the one i saw on mercari is crazy cheap. how is it doing

it looks healthy , why do you say it is dying ? just t make a video?
I did same
They like being in smaller pots
Mine looks so bad
And im so so sad
Did you do a follow up to this video
Guadalupe Hernandez I did! Like 5 days ago 👀
Ohhh. You were definitely over watering it and also when you press the soil you should it reaaaally mildly not hard like how you did.
Wait, what’s wrong with miracle grow?
From my experience, they infest the plants with fungus gnats. The standard mix, moisture control, and cactus/ succulent mix all have gnats.
Omg. Seriously happening to me right now. Any updates?
Is there an updated video? I can’t find it?
Yes, it is linked in the description :)
I have another type and he grew so much he was tiny when i first got him from a neighbor but i repotted him and now hes all sad even tho i did what i always do :((
Thanks for subscribing! Keep up the videos
Of course 😊
I'm new to the plant community, what's wrong with miracle grow? Lol
same i was like um im broke this is all i use lol
I got mine a month ago and now it’s looking sad. Carita triste.
what pot size does it need?
Hi! New sub and that is an awesome plant still hope you can save it!!!
Sheri & Will thanks!! I hope I can too 😭🌱
Hello!😍
Esie martillano hi 🤠
