I don’t think they are difficult at all. Two things…be sure you have good drainage, and DO NOT overwater. Bubbles is a great name! I love the pot too. Have fun!
3 Mi piaceAt first glance, I thought you were growing grapes or berries in your home 😂 What is this plant called?

1 mi piaceI am on my third string of pearls so I know I have overwatered in the past and didn’t give the first two enough light on the crown on the plant. Your SOP looks very healthy! Good luck.
0 Mi piaceThank you! Hopefully the window I have is enough sun for my guy. Not sure if this helps- a friend of mine said to look for the dark green “line” on each pearl, that is called the “window”. When the window is open, it doesn’t need water, only water when the window is closed (meaning you can’t see the line). So I’m assuming they will become a little shriveled, and at that point it’s safe to water! I’m only in day two so don’t take my word for it but those are the rules I will be living by!
1 mi piaceThat’s a neat way to know this needs water. Never heard that before! I learned from Tanner the Planter that it has to be 100 per cent dry soil before you water. Maybe for me, this third time is the charm! 🪴
