I got a ghost leaf. I feel like on my syngonium once I got a ghost leaf it never stopped which leads to natural death.....what would you do?

Nothing. If my plants want to die, they die. I have like 30 plants.

However, if you want to save some of it, look into propagating it. The main plant might die but it can have offspring living on.

Edit: I don't know if this plant gets variegation but if it naturally does, it might not die

You are right, I am still just scared to chop and prop sometimes.....I shouldn't be, but I feel like I am hurting it when I know that some plants thrive the more you chop em'

How's the soil? Been repotted recently? I'd try taking it out of the pot, replacing all the loose soil with fresh potting soil enriched with nutrients (I use blood meal + bone meal because plants are secret goths), putting it back, giving it a good soak & drain, then see what happens.

Now that you say this I think my syngonium albo and this one are both due for a refresh!
