Assess your plant: Check if the soil is dry or overly wet. Wilting often happens from underwatering or root problems.
Water deeply: If dry, water the plant generously but avoid waterlogging. Make sure excess water drains out.
Use a spray mist: Lightly mist the leaves with water to increase humidity around the plant.
Optional boost: Add a diluted natural fertilizer or compost tea to the water once a week to nourish roots and stimulate growth.
Adjust conditions: Move your plant to an appropriate spot with the right light and temperature. Avoid direct harsh sun if the plant is stressed.
Monitor: Within a few hours to a day, you should notice the plant perk up and regain firmness.
Tips
Avoid overwatering as it can cause root rot.
Regularly trim dead leaves to help the plant focus on new growth.
Repot plants with old soil if roots seem crowded or unhealthy.
