@SoulmateBibi55 temperamental buggers. I had to take a break from the brat pack. They like moist but not soggy. I would watch it, finger dip or water meter check moisture. I forgot to water it one time and it drooped, looked so sad….so sad..watered it and popped right back up. I eventually got a self-watering pot before I regifted it.
@SoulmateBibi55 oh and Greg is an AI app that adjusts to YOU. Just cause it says water every 3 days, check first. Hit snooze and it’ll prompt you again in 3 days. - you’ll get to the point where if you pick up the pot it’ll feel β€˜light’ to you or you’ll notice your plant looking β€˜sad’ drooping. But anyway… Greg gives suggestions…even with how much water and with lighting.
These are very temperamental plants. They also don’t thrive well if watered with tap water, most plants will do fine for awhile but these need good water ALL the time to be healthy.
