Hi there.

Well, there are few different things to consider.

1. Your PL had water roots. It make take a while to adjust to soil. Some plants make the transition easier, but not PLs.

2. Anytime you disturb a PL's roots, it's likely to pout for a while. It may stay in a bad mood for a couple of months.

3. Don't allow your PL to dry out, but resist the urge to overwater. The leaves will droop quite a bit for a while until it adjusts, so that might make you think it wants more and more water. It doesn't.

4. Hopefully you put the PL in a pot that is just big enough for the roots to fit in. You don't want a whole lot of room on the sides of the roots. PLs like to be rootbound, and being overpotted may lead to overwatering. If it's overpotted, it will probably take too long to dry, leading to root rot.

5. Lastly, be patient. Give it a few months to recover. It will probably bounce back during the spring. Just be sure not to allow it any hot light during the summer. So as we go from spring to summer, you'll want to move it away from the window. It will want bright light, but not hot light.

Don't worry! It should turn out ok. Keep us informed.

Good advice!

You can always cut the roots back and put your peace lily back into the same water bowl too and just keep them trimmed now and then.
