Help with hibiscus diagnosis

Possible root rot. Mites based on the compact growth around the tips

Hello.. I suspect this to be wilt disease (in case you rule out over or under watering). Almost all other hibiscus problems cause the leaves to turn yellow. But with wilt disease, the leaves will tend to stay the green they were to begin with, or they may slowly darken as they wilt to a dark green, brown, or blackish color.

Hello, I have this hibiscus that has been progressively looking worse. I can’t seem to figure out what it’s issue is. I’ve let the soil dry out, in the case that it was over watered. I will water it today. I didn’t see any pests on the plant. The leaves have dark almost bruises in them. I’ve tried looking that up but with no luck. It is kept in a grow tent with relative humidity, temp around 70° and air flow. It has full spectrum grow lights over it. I just can’t understand why it’s suffering while everything else in the tent is growing. Any help is appreciated!

Ime they don’t love drying out—if your soil is sharply draining, give her a thorough saturating watering and put her in the highest light you can offer. Mine get water every couple days to keep the soil nice and moist.

There does seem to be some black spotting on a few leaves so I don’t wonder if there is a fungal or bacterial issue. Can you take a closer picture of the black spotted leaves?

Appreciate the help everyone!

She looks sad. Goodluck

Looks like it got a little too cold. Fresh, young leaves are more susceptible to cold damage even when it’s not freezing. Plants with older, tougher leaves may look okay even after a mild freeze. Those leaves may recover, why not spray them with water?

Could also be a lack of water, so lift or drag the pot to get an idea of how wet the soil is. If the pot seems heavy, probably doesn’t need water — don’t add more, since it could make things worse with “non-performing” leaves.

Going through something similar. I think I've got wilting disease. Google was very helpful. Good luck
