Frydek Issues

So I repotted my frydek in good soil perlite, feed, and potting soil ( mostly perlite to make the soil light ). And the day after it started to lose all the leaves. I’ve only been watering it once a week and it’s only been about a week since I I did the repotting. Any suggestions. ( I don’t really have a window that gets great sun but I get partial sun. The temperature in my home stays around 75 degrees.)

The pot doesn’t seem big enough, and also does it have drainage holes, if not, either repot it again, or make some drainage holes

This is just my opinion, let me know if you have a reply

Did you fertilize, when repotting if you did could be way to much for the plant , usually new soil is enough

So this happened to all my Alocasias all repotted on the same day. They have proper drainage but I think I may have added to much fertilizer in the mixture. So looks like I’m going to have to repot them. Do you think it’s safe to repot them so soon ? Or should I wait 6 months to keep the roots from going in to shock.

If reporting it is okay I may just move it over to hydro. I’ve heard a lot of good things with this growing style for these plants.

I think it needs good drainage for roots, because it looks like overwatering.

Make sure that the roots of the plant have not started to rot. If so, the damaged roots must be removed
