it’s either thirsty af, getting cold by drafts or there’s pests

😬🫠 another lady said it might be overwatered lol  
I assume it’s probably the drafts 😕

#### Vladdie replied on 2025-02-02

Thanks for the insight, I watered it and it actually looks better now, so as other plants too. Unfortunately Planta’s watering schedule is not always reliable 🥲

Yes, drafts!

😤😤😤 I feel like all my plants became difficult this winter

honestly the fact that you called it little shit already tells me you fed up with your prayer plant as much as I am but I’ve been working on being nice to her 😂😂😂😂

#### Vladdie replied on 2025-01-31

lol 😆 🤝🏻 it just was so great and then started changing all of a sudden. First I gave her grow light and a humidifier, so it came back to life and gave many new leaves, was so gorgeous. And now this

I have 8 plant babies and she gives me the hardest time but then again she is my youngest lol idk honestly is no win with them have to literally figure her out everyday lol

I’m having the same problem with a few of mine! I started using a humidifier during the day and it seems to help.

#### Vladdie replied on 2025-02-03

Hmmm that’s good to know, I’m using mine more often now too just in case
