What’s wrong with her?😒

#ZzPlant
1ft to light, indirect
10” pot with drainage
Last watered 2 weeks ago
@NovelCaleypea have you checked the soil? Might’ve a little dry. But I don’t have one so I can’t be helpful sorry
@grateful_68 yes it’s not completely dry yet. The app says to water her today but I don’t know if I should. 2 weeks ago I bottom watered her. I don’t see any pest. She has had light spots on her since I bought her about 6 months ago.
@NovelCaleypea I also bottom water however with it getting so cold I’m not watering as much. Are you misting her? Hash tag some people who have that type of plant and see what the are saying #Seymour or #ZzPlant
Oh boy yellowing leaves means she is being overwatered. I water mine ONLY when she is completely dry. If I’m in doubt I wait a little longer. These guys can absolutely handle drought but HATE being overwatered.

Make sure she’s in fast draining chonky soil. And very good job checking the soil and not just watering because an app says to! πŸ‘πŸ»

This is mine she’s about 10 years old and about four foot tall. I only water when completely dry, about once a month.
Also I saw someone ask if you mist her. Please do not mist this plant. It is native to dry areas in Africa which is why she does not need much water. Misting would only cause her harm.
Put a wooden skewer stick in after you water you check it before and after it will show you if you have dry are moist soil
I think I figured it out. I think my humidifier was too close. I have placed my ZZ plant to a different location and it seems to be doing better! Thank you guys!!
