This guy drives me nuts. Stromanthe Triostar. I feel like I’ve finally found a spot he’s happy in. This is the best he’s looked in months. Does have some dry tips still, so working on that with the humidity tray and now misting with distilled water. But, with this new spot, no grow light, it’s like the water isn’t drying up. 2 weeks since the last water and it’s still pretty wet (bottom watered). I’m worried about the roots now and thinking I need to change the dirt today. I use a tropical dirt adding lots of perlite. I do this with all my Calatheas and Hoyas and they’re happy. Anyway, I’m thinking fresh dirt and smaller pot? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

    Stop! Lol don’t panic cause these guys are temperamental about change and they will take a few months to adjust to the new spot. I know from experience that if you ignore them they will be fine. They will roll up their leaves or leave them up and look pitiful for weeks sometimes. I hate moving them because I have been known to panic and do root checks 😆

      Haha, okay I’m gonna trust you! I do think he’s happier here with some minor sun instead of a grow light, but I’ll leave him in peace. Thanks! I’m all about panicking and stressing everyone out 😂
