Guys! 😩 I just can’t figure out how to keep a white fusion Calathea alive. This plant has only had distilled or rainwater and fertilizer on schedule. What could be the problem???

Amie206What do you mean by “on schedule”?

Saarah AamilahI would also like to know what on schedule means! Are you watering every week or only when the soil is dry? I would highly recommend only watering when your soil is mostly dry, and not simply on a strict schedule, as often watering needs change based on a variety of factors!

Well I usually go by the apps schedule, typically fertilizing every other watering. If it’s still too moist I will snooze for a couple of days. Could that be too much fertilizer for this plant?

Calathea’s can be very finicky. I’m glad you’re snoozing if the soil is wet. I typically let mine get almost dry before watering again. If they are still suffering I let them dry all the way out. I also have humidifiers near by. How cold/warm is it where you live. It may be too cold outside for it to sit in the windowsill

I’m in Texas, so it’s been warm here. It’s usually placed on a plant stand on the side of my window. I just moved it there to get a good picture. My house is at 55-60% humidity most of the time. I have put it in a mini greenhouse with a humidifier. I just have the worst luck with these plants.

LeafmealoneOoh mine looks exactly the same and declined rapidly! Mine has spider mites. I’m treating it with neem oil. The spider mites are winning but I’m not giving up yet.

You might want to move it away from your other plants just to be safe

paige6Calatheas are super sensitive to fertilizers, maybe try to just use distilled/rainwater and run it throughly through when you do water. Don't let it dry out keep her relatively moist but not too wet.

I’ve been using distilled and rain water. I’m thinking I might have over fertilized. I ended up cutting the leaves and going to try and grow a new plant. I’ll be sure to fertilize less often and maybe switch to something else. What do you recommend for feeding? I’ve been using miracle grow for houseplants.

I actually use Happy Happy Houses plant fertilizer! I've only been using it for about a month but I like it so far. I can definitely tell a difference in growth already but it's just a mixture for 1 gal and it's gentle enough to use each watering
