can someone help me out here. i got this plant a few weeks ago. i believe it is a calathea medallion. i am constantly getting crispy leaves but i have her setup right next to a humidifier and we are still crispy. i am trying to get it acclimated but it seems to be getting worse. can someone explain to me what i need to do to stop

These plants are notorious for hating tap water. Try distilled or rain water!

Amen. I only feed mine filtered water and have them in an eastern facing window and so far so good.
