I think I need help. This pink polka dot plant is loosing some of the larger middle/lower leaves. They're turning yellow and drying up. There's some new growth trying on the top, but I'm worried. I can't tell if it's a light or water issue. Any advice?
Check soil isn’t staying to wet, yellowing , then drying is normally sign it’s not drying out enough between waterings , also check not root bound and there healthy
1 Like The roots aren't bound. And I think I'm letting it dry enough. I read it likes being slightly moist but maybe I'm over doing it

Get a moisture meter it has made big difference for me. Even if the app says it need watering I always check with the meter just in case.
1 Like I might invest in one. This plant seems very picky

These plants need very high humidity. They do best in terrariums. Without humidity they drop leaves and become leggy.
2 Likes That could be the issue. The location it's in is quite dry. Thanks for the tip
