Whats the best way to support a stressed plant? I was looking up that liquid kelp is a good fertilizer to use in dilution? I’m new to stressed plants and idk if I just leave it alone and give it time or give it some support. The stress came from cutting some root rot off of my plant. Unfortunately there was a lot of rot. And I’m sure that was a lot. I am working on some propagation cuttings right now but I still want to save it. Shes lost some leaves, they’re cutling a bit and has now new growth, when a few months ago she was sprouting off a bunch of new ones. Which now that I think of it maybe she was doing that because of the rot and plants apparently do weird growth mechanism if they might die?

This poor little baby I think is finally recovering. I’ve made a lot of mistakes with this plant. I’ve definitely over loved it. I’ve also been a helicopter watching it like a hawk to make sure it was okay lol. Idk if any of you went through that phase too. But just like relationships you finally get to that period of “okay I think I know exactly what to expect with this person”. Sometimes yellowing leaves just means nutrient deficiencies and not some catastrophic root rot😂 although she did have root rot because of my doing. The main reason why I wanted to post this is because my friend is big on nutrient deficiencies for plants and what it looks like. She had curling leaves that was saved by banana water. And I’m gonna try some coffee water for some extra nitrogen next. I think that will help with her pale/yellowing leaves.

First pic is me trying to water propagate my marble queen pothos. I think it keeps getting rot? It looks brown but it’s not squishy? The first time I did this two weeks ago it got another spot like this so I cut it off, dipped it in cinnamon, let it callous for like a day and a half and put it back in water. This is what it looks like after. Idk what I’m doing wrong.

My sister just got her those little metal things to hold her leaves up. It’s honestly impressive shes kept this plant look this good for so long. I’m in awe.

So a like a 2 months ago I repotted this plant into a smaller pot because it was getting root rot. So correct me if I’m wrong but I think that’s whats happening with the yellowing leaf? It’s in a more snug pot with a chunky soil mix. And I’m bottom watering. Anyways some gnats happened along the way (I have the sticky traps out right now and I don’t see anymore flying around) also some of the bite marks happened with the repot and my sisters cat got a hold of a few of them. But none of the leaves had complete line rips through them and that last plant in pic 3 has like most of the leaf bitten off which the cat didn’t do either. The leaves just had cat teeth punch holes in them. Plus theres that white powdery stuff on there too? Quite a few of the leaves have black dust on the back I can’t tell if it’s soil or if it’s thrips. Seems like a lot is going on but idk what exactly. I’m new to actually identifying these issues.

Full backstory for this plant so yall can help me best. I believe it’s a jade and pearl pothos. Shes my first plant EVER. I rescued her from an antique mall😂 first pic is what I’m trying to propagate, second pic is it barely tucked in the perlite, third pic is what it looked like before and why I chose to propagate it, and fourth pic is it of it being on a humidity tray I made. Long story short I learned that part of the plant that kept getting the yellow leaves was just rotted🥲 lessons I’ve now learned from. So I wanted to save the healthy part of the plant. Her leaves were very firm and perky. I’ve been misting the top of the perlite every other day and filling the reservoir on the tray every few days when it dries out. Since I’ve been doing that, it’s been about a week, the leaves are not as firm, and droopy. Should I put something over it for the green house effect? Am I underwater or overwatering it? Should I cut the lower leaves off and water propagate it? Should I cut in between the nodes and bunch the leaves together and do that instead? Idk what I should do to ensure its success. The vining philodendron I have on the tray below it is doing totally fine. It’s actually gotten perkier.
