Hi, may I know why does mine have the same like the one you showed us at 3:33? Could it be overwatering? I use rain water to water her.

I apologize for the late response! Yes, that usually happens when the plant sits in water for too long. Make sure to check the drainage holes to ensure they’re adequate. It might be a good idea to repot it in a chunkier mix for better drainage. Please let me know if you have more questions, I'm happy to help. 💚

@@PlantHouseGarden No problem! Thanks for the reply. Still trying to figure it out. I only have her for about a month. Hopefully she survives under my care 😝

😢 the soil in my Calathea plant is sort of hard! What is the problem , could it had been the ceiling fan? Please help , the watering I just gave her seep right through her very quickly, 😮☹️😳🙄😦😧😮😲

This kind of soil could lead to under-watering. I would suggest repotting her and placing her in a chunky mix. You can either buy a ready-made aroid soil mix or make your own. I have a step-by-step video on how to prepare it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYGkl3-jnpaCgM0 This type of soil works well for all Calatheas because it retains enough moisture without keeping the soil too wet. When repotting, try to remove as much of the old soil as you can, but be very gentle to avoid damaging the roots, as they are sensitive and a bit dramatic. Let me know if you need more information! 💚
