Tips + Advice

Hello Aglaonema community!
This is my new aglaonema pink, Barbie! It’s my first plant of this kind and I have two. What are your tips or advice to keep this plant looking and living its best???
Any advice you have is extremely helpful but my biggest focus is sun and watering schedule.

Thank you :)

@n3rf.or.nothing Basic care:
To care for an Aglaonema 'Pink Splash', provide it with medium-bright, indirect light, water when the top inch or two of soil is dry, maintain high humidity by grouping plants or using a humidifier, and use a well-draining potting mix. Protect the plant from temperatures below 50Β°F (10Β°C) and avoid direct drafts from air conditioning or heating vents. Fertilize monthly during the spring and summer. Don’t rely solely on the app for watering needs of your plant, always check the soil before watering. The app is AI based and learns from the input you feed it. The more information you make available the better the app will respond. Light
Medium-bright, indirect light: is ideal.
The plant can tolerate low-light conditions, though growth may be slower.
Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering
Water when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch.
Ensure the pot has a drainage hole to prevent waterlogged soil and root rot.
Overwatering is a common cause of yellowing leaves.
Water more frequently during the active growing seasons of spring and summer.
Humidity
Aglaonemas, including the 'Pink Splash,' thrive in high humidity.
Increase humidity by misting the plant, grouping it with other plants, using a humidifier, or placing the pot on a pebble tray.
Temperature
Maintain temperatures between 65Β°F and 80Β°F (18Β°C to 27Β°C).
Protect the plant from cold drafts from windows or air conditioning vents.
Soil and Potting
Use a well-draining potting mix.
A mix of compost, coco coir, and perlite is a good option.
Fertilizing
Feed your plant with a balanced houseplant fertilizer monthly during the spring and summer growing seasons. Light
