Maranta (Prayer Plant) Update

So after about a month I do not have much good news to share. As time went on the leaves on my plant would turn yellow and wilt into a sad  shriveled nothing๐Ÿ˜ž. I did repot this plant which I am not so sure was the best idea at the moment.




 As you can see ๐Ÿ‘€ we can literally  count how many leaves are left together..1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8....... about 14 leaves we have here ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ compared to what we started with what a difference. Forgive me for the terrible lighting in these photos I took these pictures before the sun came up even so I could have adjusted the lighting for you ๐Ÿ˜‘ a shame I know. Despite all of the issues it  never stopped putting out new growth but as soon as the new leaf appeared it would turn yellow! It was originally placed underneath a grow light with a cool mist humidifier that ran for at least 6 hours during the day and I would water it once a week.

So I moved it's location to my kitchen bar where it received less light and it lost about 8 more leaves ๐Ÿ˜ฆ. Just so you know I have spent hours researching this plant and literally watching every YouTube video that I could find. Some good news , remember I didn't say all the news was bad well mostly bad news but the good news is that the few leaves that were unfurling have opened up and  have not turned yellow YET and are not crisping At The Moment.

It has been here for about a week and the leaves seem to be happy all 8 of them ๐Ÿ˜Š!

I will continue to post updates on the progress ( if any ) of my darling, God bless!
