@YesMango55 you’re welcome! They don’t like to dry out all the way so make sure you are consistently watering whenever the soil is at least halfway dry, but never fully dry.

(Exception lol: unless you live in a humid climate like I do, or you have humidifiers keeping your house in a humid climate, minimum ~60%, then you can let the soil get fully dry. They also take in moisture from the air )

So if you can feel the soil with your finger about halfway down and it’s dry, give her a good drink but don’t let her soil get soggy, her roots need to breathe too. ✨🌿
@YesMango55 She is probably thirsty if you’ve been holding back watering. Leaves curl inwards like that due to underwatering, but it could also be a stress response to too much direct sunlight.
@DreamMachine thank you so much !! 🀍
