I’m so confused about what is happening with this plant. It was doing well for the longest time and then idk what happened.

Have u been watering only when soil is dry? How’s the temperature in ur house? If it’s too cool in ur house it could not be drying out fast enough. Might need chunkier soil. Cut off anything bad and let it re grow. Mine did the same thing and once I reported, trimmed and watered less she bounced back and is now growing like crazy

The pot looks a little big to me, I would definitely downsize.

Dude I hear the struggle. I have over 100 plants but my maranta hates me. The only thing I haven’t tried yet is using distilled water. I wish you much luck my friend.

Too big a pot looks like, might be waterlogged

I repotted it and used a small pot. Keeping my hopes up.
