Drooping garden mum

I got this 13 days ago on the 17th of September, I watered it 10 days ago on the 20th, someone accidentally watered it from the top foliage 8 days ago on the 22nd, I then watered it 6 days ago on the 24th and haven’t watered it since and it has been in a shaded area for that week, how do I recover it?

If you pinch off the spent flowers, that will encourage it to produce more flowers. Mums are pretty tolerant, but you can overwater. They like sun. I can keep mums in the same pot year after year by allowing a few flowers to go to seed and distributing the seeds on the original soil.
