How to fertilize Bella Carlina Calathea

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Bella Carlina Calathea after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Helpppppo please!! This plant has been giving me trouble for a year now she’s in her last leg and the other mini rattle shaker is also dying. Any tips???

My plant was beautiful & thriving. The skewers were to keep my dogs out of the soil. They knocked the pot over & the plants roots were out of the soil with a few leaves broken. I cut the broken leaves and replanted it. What else can I do to help it? #Calathea #stress #damage

To cut or not to. So I saved this beauty from the trash with just four leaves. She’s grown back super full beautiful but the base is so leggy and she’s starting to get top heavy. Should I chop & prop her or leave her alone?  #HappyPlants #PropagationStation #CalatheaCrew #RescuePlants

More yellow?! Hi everyone! I know I’m asking a lot of questions, but I have like.. one more.. I think.. This plant needs to be repotted, and I was going to do that, but I noticed that it’s got yellowing spot on it. Is that pests? Too much light? It’s not fertilizer.. I haven’t fed it yet. But I dont know what to do 😕 please help. It also has mesh in it.. I dont know what to do with that. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #CalatheaCrew #Calathea #NewPlantMom #GregGang #PlantTherapy @SuperbRaspfern @Prentyce @DeanSucc4 @grateful_68 @LushLeaves25

New leaves rotten I adopted this Calathea Medallion from Ikea on January. So far she was thriving, she growed 4 flowers in March and 4 new leaves were growing. However, only 1 of the new leaves has grown normal, while 2 of them grown yellow and whithered, with the stems flacids and not responding to the pattern of movement of the prayer plant. Ancient leaves are all still good. I've already removed the leaves; the base of their steams seem to be rotten. I'm considering repotting the plant, as it could be a root problem. If somebody had a previous experience and can give me some advices I would highly appreciate!! Thanks in advance! #Calathea #Calatheamedalion #medallion

Just look at her :( I think its humidity level is low, I added a dish with water and marbles, and started to use my humidifier at night. Should I give up on it? Is there anything I’m missing ? It’s a couple feet from an east facing window. I’m new to plants.
