I have no clue how or if I can still fix my Fittonia!! Too much sunlight and the leaves dry out. I know not to give it too much water but then the soils drys up really quick. Any suggestions?? Please help! She was red and beautiful when I first got her and just went down hill since. πŸ₯Ί
2” pot without drainage
Last watered 5 hours ago
I would remove her from that pot and see if the roots are still alive. If they are, she needs to go in a pot with drainage holes. I would mix perlite in with the soil to give it some airflow so the roots can breathe. I use plastic pots inside all my ceramic ones. It’s easier to tell when they need water.
This is the only plant that always dies for me immediately!! My condolences!!
@Lynnja thank you I will try that!!
@clovemb omg, I didn’t even have her that long. Hoping I can save it 😭😭
I would give her a humidifier if she doesn't have one. These plants need high humidity. I just recently moved mine to a small room with a humidifier set to 65% because I struggle to keep their leaves from getting crispy.
