I have been watering when the top of the soil gets dry. It gets indirect sunlight. It has been doing good until recently the leaves started curling and I dont know what to do!! HELP
How long have you had it? How often do you wind up watering it?

Humidity.These guys love it and need a lot of it. I recommend running a humidifier.

When the leaves curl like that, it’s getting too much light. I’ve had a prayer plant for years now and am just getting the hang of it. I’d also recommend using non chlorinated/chloramine-treated water. I got some stuff from the local pet store to put in my tap water and my prayer plants have really improved

Careful with humidifier, can increase fungus growth. Just keep the humidifier clean and monitor/treat signs of fungus growth!
Might be helpful to know what direction the sunlight is coming from and what part of the world you live in to give advice on sun to water ratio!

My stomanthe triostar used to do this and the tips were drying out. Turns out it didn’t have much light or humidity. I actually thought that was how it was supposed to look! Noob alert. This is the before pic.
