Help! What am I doing wrong?? I use a growlight to give sun and I've recently started using distilled water, but the leaves keep curling 😭 what do I do? I hear these are finicky plants... But can anyone tell me why the leaves are yellowing and curling?

It really is a beautiful plant. I don’t have much advice except maybe it’s not the right amount of water.

The soil looks dry. These plants like to stay moist. I water when the top inch of soil is dry

Make sure the temp of the room is steady, if it changes to much it could be a reason to why your plants are ill

Pot also looks to be too big

### Reese kommenterade den 2025-06-13

Too much light can cause the leaves to curl

Looks like a calathea. Could be so many things including looking at it wrong in my opinion 😆
