I just repotted this caladium lindenii because of challenges with drainage in the old pot. Other than making sure the plant gets sunlight and not too much water is there anything else that I should do to help it grow and recover? I have planted in an organic soil with mycorrhiza.

Very prone to rot is this mix chunky? I have the best success with all my plants with a super chunky mix regardless of it being organic. It's beautiful!!

I used Fox Farm Happy Frog with bottom watering. I hope that this works!

Mine also has gone from beautiful to brown spots on the leaves overnight. I made no changes in plant care. Can anyone help answer this problem? TY

Misting and the occasional bone meal sprinkle has helped mine!

I have the same problem, no changes but went from beautiful to iffy 🤦🏻‍♀️
