I πŸ’― vote to keep doing what you’ve been doing. Mine was gorgeous like yours until I started messing with it… so my suggestion: don’t be a β€œme” πŸ˜…
Best of luck with your beautiful #Calathea πŸ’š
@JessLittle go with you gut, in this case your finger. Greg app is not perfect.. hit snooze which is usually 3 days. Use you finger, I use pointer finger up to first knuckle AND a moisture meter cause I’m that person. The Greg app will learn from YOU and adjust accordingly but things always change. Weather, moisture, heat, etc. I seem to check everyday lol.
@SvelteDevilsivy i forgot I actually have a moisture meter i got for my compost! What should the moisture in my soil be before I water again?
@JessLittle I usually let it get near the end, really end of moist - almost dry BUT most of the time my guys will stop drooping a little and it’s the famous line β€œhere’s your sign”
@JessLittle And despite my own advise.. this usually means back off on water (I make my own soil mixtures) and also a little humidity issues. See pic. I am so guilty of overwatering. I have many rattlesnakes.
