This plants are very picky, how often are you watering?
0 Mi piaceI just fully watered both 1 week ago today till the water dripped out the bottom
0 Mi piaceFor calatheas, I usually will let the top soil dry out about two inches down before watering again, you can check using your finger which is my favorite method or a chopstick (if the soil is wet it will stick to the chopstick, if the soil is dry the chopstick will come out dry)
1 mi piaceI’m afraid I’m killing them 😭🥲
0 Mi piaceThat’s what I did and they were dry on chopstick
0 Mi piaceIt could always be a lighting issue! Try moving it to a spot with different light but still bright if you can
1 mi piaceI only have 1 area that gets very brite light and it’s my from hall
1 mi piaceCalatheas like more water than other plants in my experience if that helps at all, keep the soil at the bottom of the pot moist at all times. Like they hate to dry out completely
1 mi piaceI have pebble trays under all my calatheas
0 Mi piaceFunny my Calathea Makoyana don’t seem to mind my bedroom and I have 4 of them
0 Mi piaceThose plants are super stable in my experience, makoyanas are prob one of the easier calatheas. But this one is a bit picker. I’ve noticed if a plant has white or some type of lighter variegation they are more likely to be picky
1 mi piaceThat one could be a humidity problem
0 Mi piaceI have a pebble tray underneath it
0 Mi piaceIt’s seeming like they need more water to me
1 mi piaceThe way the leaves are curling and crisping for calatheas usually mean not enough water
2 Mi piaceThe soil is pulling dirt on chopstick
1 mi piaceMaybe more consistent watering and more humidity, otherwise I’m sorry I don’t know
1 mi piaceI appreciate your help, I’m a beginner at these types of plants
