Hi All! I feel like I’m watering my Triostar every 4 days or so, is that a normal cadence?

What type of soil is it in? And how are you watering? 4 days I think would be too often. Are you seeing any signs of stress in the plants, like yellowing leaves?

#### Erica replied on 2024-02-10

Unsure about the soil. The nursery repotted it for me. No yellowing so far!

What is making you water it every 4 days? Is that just the app’s suggestion or are you noticing that the soil is dry?

#### Erica replied on 2024-02-11

Dry soil

Since the nursery repotted it for you, it could be that the soil drains very well (you would notice water pretty much running right through it when you water it). That may be the case since you haven’t noticed any signs of overwatering on the plant.

It could also possibly be that the soil apppears dry, but may still be moist further down, which may cause issues later on if you’re watering often.

Either way with this plant I think it’s safe to water once you feel the top 1-2 inches of soil is dry. You can check by sticking the top of your finger into the soil. Good luck!

I did just notice this, haven’t watered since Friday
