Calathea Collection - Understanding Prayer Plants: Browning, Curling, Wilting

[@MinnieAcresFarm]

Those are some dramatic divas 😂 I have plenty of humidity here though so maybe I could make them happy and I also use rain water for my houseplants 😂 but your Aquafina girl was asking for it 😂 edit to add: do the challenge! I wanna see what happens😀

[@FelineJungle]

You have the purrfect environment for them!! Ms. Aquafina was asking for it 🤪

Calathea and all prayer plants are gorgeous and yes I agree they are not a beginner plants. Thanks for sharing your tips 💚🌿

[@ravenchick2]

One thing I did that’s made a huge difference in how happy my calathea are is to take them out of terracotta pots. I love them but they seem to hate them. So, I put all the plants in nursery pots and use the terracotta pots as cache pots. It’s been a game changer for me.

[@onineson3050]

They are hard to take care but they are beautiful. Lol

[@FelineJungle]

I wouldn’t say it’s hard to take care of, we just don’t have the perfect environment for it in New York 🥲🌱

[@deborahevangelista879]

Your videos are informative and you have a fun personality, which make them enjoyable.

[@FelineJungle]

Thank you 😆💚 so sweet of you

[@TracysHomeGarden]

Awesome tips - I killed a couple before I figured out the best location for them! 💚🪴

[@MirandaDance]

Yes please- would love to see the experiment with the self watering pot

[@Mir.cvetov.]

Good day, what gorgeous plants you have, very beautiful

[@ingridshortell4122]

Yay Petfriendly so important. New kitty coming home in 10 days

[@janetshepherd9062]

I have one now that I am learning from. Thanks for the info.

[@FelineJungle]

Oh nice! Hope this helps! Which one do you have?

[@gardeninghouseplants1112]

All of them are so gorgeous! They really brighten up our mood😃☺️🍃💕

[@FelineJungle]

The foliage makes them so irresistible!!

[@therootofallthings]

I’m not giving up on them, yet! 😅 thank you so much for the tips! 🌱♥️

[@FelineJungle]

🙌 yess don’t give up 💚

[@jennAKAskuna]

The “beach” comparison!! 🤣 Spot on!! Wish my Makoyana looked as good as yours!

[@R0sa.bella.]

Ahh I thought I was going crazy but this makes so much sense!

[@drivendraven]

really love the quality of your vlog.. :)

[@FelineJungle]

Thank you!! Glad the sound was okay for you

[@hjboernerful]

would love to see a LECA experiment! I'm about to convert a calathea myself, so, curious to see other examples of how it goes. thanks so much for your content!

[@FelineJungle]

Oh yes!! Definitely will do! Keep me updated with your experiment. Which one are you trying with?

[@corgijungle4288]

You make it look easy to care for them lol 😂

[@FelineJungle]

Haha 😂 it’s a science experiment with them!

[@greenmable475]

04:32 you nailed it! 😅 My tricolor lost so many leaves. I’m hoping it bounces back. I have new stems coming up like how your rattlesnake is coming back. Your peacock calathea is gorgeous!

[@FelineJungle]

Yay!! Don’t give up on your tricolor 😊😊😊

[@ingridshortell4122]

Still learning. Thank you the good info

[@FelineJungle]

Glad to help💚

[@BUHAYMOTHER]

I'm starting to grow my calathea collection. The tricolour I have no idea how to look after it regardless of what I do, thank younfoe the tips 🤞

[@FelineJungle]

You’re welcome. Hope it helped!

[@favourgreenau]

So far what I killed Calathea are... Calathea orbifolia, Calathea fusion white and Calathea jungle rose I really like them but only the thing is they seem don't like me much ... 😂

[@FelineJungle]

HAha same! My partner just bought a fusion white home🤞 we will figure them out eventually!

[@favourgreenau]

@@FelineJungle ohh that's cool 👍 wish the best for you and please share how you grow them ☺👍

[@RootsandHuesMaRa]

Thank you for the tips

[@iamilhan]

Nice😍

[@Atomicqueen9]

So I'm definitely a beginner with indoor plants🪴 but I have 7 calatheas and I'm honestly obsessed I haven't killed any yet but it's still early so will see but I'm giving them rain or distilled water and I have a humidifier just for them I don't have a south facing window but I have a north and west facing window/ sliding door that are open all day and I keep them on the other side of the room

[@FelineJungle]

That’s awesome!! Keep doing what you’re doing 😁 which calatheas do you have?

[@aniliname]

I’ve got mine in lechuza pon in a self-watering pot with distilled water. That seems to be the best setup from my experiments and once it’s all set up there’s much less work to do around them. They seem to really like that airiness and constant moisture. I also think it creates a kind of humid microclimate for them since I don’t have a humidifier and they look alright.

[@FelineJungle]

Ohh I love this!! Thank you for sharing your experience. I haven’t try lechuza pon but now I want to 🧡

[@TracysHomeGarden]

Love calatheas but they require some troubleshooting...and some experience to figure them out.

[@FelineJungle]

It’s all an experiment, girl! I feel the same

[@Fir_roy]

Calatheas are funny because it will shoot new growth but brown tips at the same time 😅 Omg your needy Calathea and the Aquafina water 🤣🤣🤣🤣💅 I've got my Calathea on a small bonsai planter, half kokedama style, moss covers the soil and keeps high level of humidity indoors, and she seems to like it a lot, I see her thriving, pushing three new growths at the same time, I now know I just need to give her some top quality water 🥺 Btw, my calathea doesn't like bright indirect sunlight, she will fold her leaves, she likes the darkest corner of my living room 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheMillennialPlantDad]

My Maranta has been shooting upwards since I got it and I can’t figure out why. No brown edges . I live in Lagos Nigeria so it’s super hot and humid here yet all sis does is shoot up, day and night. I think it’s cause my room is too bright. Not sure what madam wants, I’ll also try increasing watering

[@ivonyvlogsinjapan4382]

wow 😍😍😍

[@skynet40433]

Calethea Medallion was one of my very first plants I bought 🤦🏻‍♀️ I wish I had seen this video first. Caught in their Bad Romance.🥺

[@sherylalleman2659]

Where is humidity video? Thanks
