Hi, I was wondering if the lamp next to my Rex Begonia is causing the leaves to burn, and die. Or if it’s just overwatered? * ( Update: I added a photo of its progress now, after moving it away from the lamp. )

    Idk but I would try changing one variable at a time so you can be sure what caused it and not do it again

      And make sure the humidity level is good…crispy edges sometimes means too low humidity.

      Too many times have I thrown everything at a plant problem only to muddy up my diagnoses lol. Sound advice, William.

      I figured it out, it still sort of does it, I think the problem is potassium deficiency. I have it in front of a window now, and I water it once a week, and it does have the perfect amount of light and water, so it must be potassium deficiency.

    I’ve moved it away from the lamp since I posted this, and it seems to be doing much better. I also keep the window open, and it’s next to me heater now, and the weathers getting warmer.
