Hi @WhizAcajou34 how long have you had Sproutacus and when was the last time it was potted? It looks fairly new and young. Typically fresh soil has all the nutrients it needs for several months. Proper light is the key to growth. It looks like he’s in a great spot in your home, an east window offers bright light and gentle sunshine 🏡. While light is food for plants, fertilizer is like the vitamin supplement. It adds good stuff but can’t compensate for too little light. Snake plants are notoriously labeled low light. They will tolerate low light better than most 🪴 but they won’t thrive. For fertilizers choose a well balanced, water soluble one. The label will have numbers like 10-10-10 on it. 10-10-10 is a good general houseplant ratio of nutrients. Snake plants do not need much fertilizer so cut the recommended amount to half. I’m currently using Superthrive Foliage Pro which many folks on Greg have recommended 👍.
