Congratulations! What did you do for intense rehabilitation? Did anything else change (sun exposure, temperature, day length)? Hope the momentum keeps up!
I asked my landlord for help who also happens to know some things about plants. He made a cinnamon water mix because it kills the fungus. I watered the plant with that whenever the mold reappeared. The soil I changed two times and I had a self-made cloche from plexiglass and a lid from a cooking pot which holds in some of the moisture. Otherwise bright sun and frequent but not too much watering. The plant started dying in winter, I suppose it just wasn't enough sun (I am in Germany). It's currently very hot and sunny with long days so I suppose that woke her up. I hope she keeps her new leaves and make s a few more (´ㅂ`;)
Interesting about the cinnamon! Sounds like you're doing a great job.
Thank you!
