I watered \& fertilized it two days ago when I joined Planta as instructed. I really love my Paradise he did so well outside last Summer! 🥲

The browning happened before the fertilizer?

#### DE replied on 2025-01-29

Yes

These plants like to be consistently moist. I am assuming you let the soil dry out then watered it again which can cause root rot. I would check the roots and if they are damaged and mushy repot. If not I would get her consistent temperature, humidity and LOTS of light and give her some time. Consistency is key with plants. They do not like change in their environments. Try to water her just enough to keep her moist and not drenched. DO NOT let her dry out.

Watch Sydney plant guys video on his repot fail of his blood banana on YouTube i think you will find it massively helpful

Thank you! I think the change from being outside is what caused it.  
Michigan Winters can be brutal 😑

They can yellow from fertilizer, but it looks like it needs more moisture. Mine complain if I skip watering. And moving from outside to inside can effect the watering schedule and dryness in the air. Especially depending on your heat source. I mist mine every other day too

I just had to start over with one new leaf we’ll see what happens!
