been keeping my Maranta leuconeura lemon lime in the bathroom with a south window for a couple months now. There’s nothing wrong with her at all and she’s always putting out new growth. However, I am thinking about putting her in a self watering wick system pot. Anything to add? (leaf I am holding got chewed by my cat)

No just plant it in the self watering pot like you normally would repot. Just water your plant really good after potting it, fill the reservoir with water. However, when you see its time to fill reservoir again first check your plant with your finger or soil meter before you refill reservoir. If your plant is still super wet hold off before refilling the reservoir

Make sure it has water nonstop! if mine even gets the idea it won't have water it wants to die.

It’s so pretty! Love my maranta too! I don’t have the lemon lime, but it’s gorgeous!
