Purple Punch vs Runtz Auto

y dansaz, From what you're describing and seeing the picture, it looks like your plant might be suffering from overwatering. I’ve had similar issues before, so let’s figure this out together. Main Cause: Overwatering First off, if the soil is staying too wet, the roots can’t get the oxygen they need. Plants need their roots to breathe, just like we do. When the roots are too wet for too long, they get suffocated. This can lead to the yellowing and curling of the leaves you’re seeing, especially in the middle and lower parts of the plant. Other Possibilities It’s also possible that you might be dealing with over-fertilization. If you’ve been feeding your plant too much, the tips of the leaves might start turning brown and crispy. Yellowing can happen with over-fertilization, but it’s usually accompanied by those burnt tips. Nutrient deficiencies could be another issue, but they usually present a bit differently. For example, a nitrogen deficiency causes yellowing that starts at the bottom and moves up, without much curling. Magnesium or iron deficiencies cause yellowing between the leaf veins and often show up first on new growth, not older leaves. How to Fix It To fix overwatering, first make sure your pot has good drainage. If water can't escape, it will keep the soil soggy, which the roots hate. Let the top inch or two of the soil dry out before you water again. Just stick your finger in the soil to check. Also, if the soil is compacted, try gently poking it with a stick or fork to create some air pockets; this helps the roots get more oxygen. If you suspect over-fertilization, flush the soil with lots of water to wash out the excess nutrients. Let it drain thoroughly. After that, cut back on how much and how often you’re feeding your plants. Usually, less is more when it comes to fertilizers. Addressing these issues should help your plant bounce back. Keep an eye on it and adjust your care routine as needed. Good luck and happy growing! 🌱 Feel free to ask if you have more questions!

It looks like you are watering too much based on how the leaves are curling down and in. It appears like this has been an ongoing problem and you are now also dealing with your roots rotting away in the dirt. Roots need lots of oxygen and when the soil is always wet they do not get enough oxygen. I think you have a few options that may help. Option one and likely the best option, is you remove the plant from your pot and remove and dead and decaying roots. Repot into new soil and pot. Option two: works but takes a long time to see results. Poke holes with a pen as far down as you can go. This will aerate your soil and get oxygen to the roots. Option three: if not done correctly it can kill your plant. mix a hydrogen peroxide solution and drench your soil to kill the bacteria that is causing your roots to decay. I hope this helps.
