@MeekBasil80 the pot size is probably fine. This type of plant like to be snuggled in its pot and usually only needs to be repotted every 2-3 years.
The drooping could be because Orlando is being watered too much or too little. If you are following Greg’s recommendations religiously; then it’s probably overwatered. Greg is just getting to know your plant and doesn’t know what you know about your home (humidity, dry air, etc.). So if Greg says water, check it first; if the soil is wet, hit snooze and Greg will remind you again in a few days.
If it has really been 25 days since you watered last, then Orlando is thirsty and needs a good water, letting all the excess water drain out, so his roots don’t go bad.
One other thing that might be impacting Orlando, if he is 9ft from a window or indirect light, he might be reaching for more light and what may look droopy, may actually him growing leggy toward more light. A grow light or a location a little closer to the indirect bright light might be a welcome change for him!
He’s beautiful! Keep up the hard work and Grow On!!

Thank you! I didnt know that he needed more light but after learning that, I will definitely make my best attempt at getting him closer to the light and I think I'll be doing my watering for my plants tomorrow :)
