Why are my stromanthe leaves coming straight out the womb crunchy? I’ve only had her about 2 weeks, could it be that these leaves emerged while she was in shock? She has miracle gro soil, fertilized once and i’ve watered her probably twice since i got her soil is still moist, in a southeast facing window and clearly she has ample humidity lol. There is a new healthy stem coming out of the soil so overall i believe she’s happy

She needs to be watered at the base as water it what helps unfurl the new leaves. Trim those’d desiccated ones off. Keep soil on the just moist side.
I have one of these I split into 2. Should I be running a humidifier near it like this?
I could be wrong here- but I’m thinking you’re over doing it on the moisture. Watering twice in two weeks on top of the humidifier directly misting the plant seems way too much.
