    Thanks for sharing. I'm new to plants so I actually came here to see what I'm doing right because my Coleus are thriving even after transplanting three babies into one big pot. They are doing better now than they were separately. Thanks again.

    I have some new, very leggy coleus plants that I’m trying to keep as indoor plants but their leaves keep curling/drying up and falling off! I’ve tried watering them every two or three days in case they were drying out but it’s still happening. They’re not in any direct sunlight so they aren’t getting burned, but I can’t figure out what they need/want to thrive (my peperomia is less contrary than my coleus plants!).

      Hi! Growing s coleus indoors can be tricky. While they don't like all day direct sunlight, they do need a lot of light. It sounds like they aren't getting enough sun. Since they're indoors, they can get direct morning sunlight. The rest of the day they will need intense indirectly light. Is the plant on a west or east facing window?

    How much water do you use daily for a baby coleus plant?

    • @LetsTalkAboutPlants
      @LetsTalkAboutPlants  Před 4 lety +1

      Hi! With a baby coleus, you can put a cup of water twice a week or enough to keep the soil very moist without being water logged.

    I have some coleus that have holes in the leaves but look for like they are “disintegrating” is the best word that I can use to describe it. They are also shriveling up! I’m really sad about it and getting frustrated but don’t want to give up on them! Please help!

    Yeah I realised Coleus cannot go very long without being watered. I forgot to water mine for maybe 2 weeks, and checked on it and it was almost dead 😂 so I’ve watered it yesterday and today and put it in some better sun. 🤞
