I put it outside. Should I put inside? I repotted it already because the soil was so 🤢 like tar and a pool of water. It was happier with a tiny bit of some succulent soil and some garden soil. #Aglaonema

How often if you do fertilize? I know the weather changes. Should I put the indoor light on them since they are not outdoor plants #Aglaonema

Any recommendations for a taller but not wider pot? My plant is too top heavy for the pot now. #Aglaonema

Hi there, just wondering the frequency that I should be watering my Aglaonema? The Greg app keeps reminding me every second day, but that is different to the advice I read online. It's summer down here atm in Vic, Australia, maybe that is why? 😊 #Aglaonema
