# Is is my fault that her new leaf is very rounded and not straight…

_Posted by Gilly on 2026-01-19_

Is is my fault that her new leaf is very rounded and not straight like the rest? Does she need more light? Plant food? I’ve been following the apps schedule and there’s a humidifier by her. She looks really healthy and strong. She’s also with child so ik she’s happy. Anything I can do to make sure this doesn’t happen to her new born baby leaf lol?

new leaves tend to be a little floppy. give it a few weeks to harden and it should be fine
