I got these awhile ago, but I’m pretty concerned about the status of them. I watered them a little bit about a week or so ago, but it doesn’t seem to be getting better. I don’t know if these are still savageble, but any advice would be appreciated

It looks quite stretch out, how much sun does it get? And how often do you water?

#### planty replied on 2024-09-01

I water it maybe every 2-3 weeks? It has plenty of sunlight, and it sits in my window

They should be rather close the the ground

Do you give it dormant periods? Such as during the summer?

#### planty replied on 2024-09-01

ah. When I bought it, they were both pretty raised up

#### Sharon replied on 2024-09-01

Figured, stores tend to overwater them or provide not enough light, which causes them to be extra tall

It does look salvageable though, as it appears to be firm and still a healthy color
