I water these plants once a week since I’ve had them. Since last fall, leaves are turning brown. I tried watering less but no change. I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong.

What type of water are you using?
0件のいいねI have found with my prayer plant that it needs distilled water. I've tried filtered water and it still didn't stop the leaves from browning around the edges. Plus they need a very humid environment. I have been struggling with mine since I got it 10 months ago. It seems to finally be making a turnaround since I started with the distilled water.
いいね 1件As for the peace, Lily, is the soil well draining? They don't like to get completely dried, but they also don't like sitting in water.

2件のいいねsome find that their calathea needs distilled water. mine lived on tap water for 9mo before spider mites got to it and unfortunately the mites won, but it was doing wonderfully before that. i think you're just overwatering.
0件のいいねAlso check the light levels!!! If the leaves turn yellow and aren’t crispy it’s probably because of root root (reasons for root rot are : too big of a pot, not enough drainage, and a soil mix that holds water for too long) if the edges of leaves are crispy it’s probably due to too much light
いいね 1件Though the leaves may crisp afterwards !
