My palm is STRUGGLING! Any suggestions? I was thinking that it was t getting enough moisture or light, so I’ve added grow lights that are located in the soil and a humidifier that runs during the day. I’ve been water it according to the schedule. Any feedback or suggestions based on the pictures below?

    It is most likely overwatered. Planta doesn’t have the most accurate schedule. Also, does that pot have drainage?

      The pot does have drainage, yes. I was actually worried it wasn’t being waters enough

    your palm is not getting any benefit from the grow light positioned like that. light needs to hit the leaves in order for the plant to use it for photosynthesis. it also looks over watered to me, most palms prefer their soil to dry out completely between waterings

      Yesss maybe a different style that can hang about if a floor lamp with a grow light in it? There’s a few options. Good luck!

    Light needs to be on the leaves just an fyi Those grow lights on the soil aren’t doing anything But yes I agree I think it might be overwatered
