My dieffenbachia is all droopy! I came back from a short ...

12” pot with drainage
Last watered 2 days ago
Check the soil. Add water if it’s dry at least an inch.5 beneath the surface.
If you did what I did and turned the heat off before you left, get her some humidity pronto. It should recover in about a day or so.
Would a thorough misting be okay?
Dieffenbachia’s don’t like temps under 60 degrees so it could be that that combination of cold and no light is causing the droop. Before watering, I would try sticking her in the bathroom with a warm shower on for about 5-10 mins. Don’t actually put her under the water but run the shower and place the plant on the sink or a cabinet with the door closed. Good luck
Should I put her in my garage since it’s cold?
Look what happened over night!!! She perked right up!! πŸ₯³πŸ₯³β€οΈπŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°
Thank you so much that shower worked wonders for her 😍
