Let’s all pray to the plant gods…..

This plant noob just did 6 repottings:  
1- Gold Dust Croton  
1- Galaxy False Aralia  
1- Blushing Philo  
1- Calathea Medallion  
1- Calathea Pink Star  
1-Corn Plant Lemon Lime

The Croton and the Aralia had just outgrown their nursery pots and needed constant watering as they dried out in less than 3 days.

Ohhhh the Calatheasss…..the saga continues with them. I “repotted” them the other day. All I did was rework their original soil and put them back in the same pots. No new soil. They were staying wet for too long. Soil had compacted. I checked them this morning, still way too wet. So Ive repotted them again. Their original soil was dense. Looked like soggy Oreos. I put them in new pots, but the same size as their old ones with a much better draining soil mixture. I gave the medallion the Britney Spears haircut as the leaves were dry and brown and weren’t recovering like the pink stars. P.s. I bought 3 more calatheas last night lol

The Blushing Philo was purchased last night, along with 9 other plants lol. Her roots were all the way out of her pot, so she needed it for sure.

The corn plant- last night while plant shopping (Supposed to be ladder shopping) this corn plant called to me. I pulled him out of his decorative pot, discovered he’s just sitting in water. The smell that came from that water was horrendous. I couldn’t check the roots cause the soil was like liquid at the bottom. I brought it home. Sat it on paper towels over night and replanted it this morning. It smelled soooooo bad. But the roots were fine.

I’m hoping they all live after the repottings lol

Gotta say, for a noob, you are selecting some difficult plants. You are a brave sole. 🤔🙂

I love the adventure it takes me on and I love the challenge. I can manage to keep the difficult ones alive. But I’ve managed to kill a galaxy aralia and an umbrella plant along the way lol

Just be sure to give the corn plant filtered water, not tap water. They are pretty sensitive.

Just did the 24 hour check up on the 6 plants I repotted yesterday. So far they all look good. Not seeing any stress or anything yet. All look happy. Keeping a close eye on the calatheas. So moody.

Calatheas are extremely sensitive! They move like their moods. It fun watching them open to the sun. Funny little plants.

Well here’s the one week update on the calatheas:

First of all it feels like it’s been weeks and not just one week lol anyways, I chopped the leaves off of one cause they were all brown. Hasn’t made a comeback or seem to be growing lol but there’s some hope cause I still see a little spot of green so maybe it will surprise me. The other one finally decided it wanted to live and lifted all its leaves today for the first time in weeks even before the repotting they were crispy and laid flat. And yes I chopped the brown leaf off after I took this picture lol
