Hi! Does anyone know if my fittonia is okay? I’ve gotten her about a month ago. Since then she’s growing new leaves like crazy but recently I notice that some of the new leaves are very oddly shaped. Is this normal or could there be something I’m doing wrong?

that might depend, it needs a good bit of humidity but are very picky on watering. so it needs to be consistent. have you noticed any pests? that could be another factor but i would assume watering issues/inconsistencies.

Haven’t noticed any pest. So it’s probably water inconsistencies then. I have her in a wick set up and I fill up the water reservoir right when it dries up. Sometimes it takes 5 days or sometimes it’s 7 days but I guess she doesn’t like this 🥲

i have a wick setup on one of my pothos, and ever so often i top water to make sure everything is getting some love. and don’t forget to fertilize!
