How often do you water, could be over watering/under watering

Do you check the soil before you water?

#### Lynzi 🩷님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

Is the water hydrophobic at all?

#### Lynzi 🩷님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

well i just water it with the water out of the sink, so not sure

#### Soup님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

Omg sorry I meant soil 😭 also does the water run straight through when you water

its potted with miracle grow potting mix

#### Soup님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

Okay, does the soil absorb the water tho? Because sometimes the soil can stop taking in as much water and it’ll just run down the side of the pot and through the hole

#### Lynzi 🩷님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

i honestly have never had any drainage out of the pot

#### Kirsty님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

It sounds like you’re not watering it enough. When you water, you need to thoroughly drench it, so water runs out of the drainage holes. Then you need to let the soil dry out before you water again.

Does the pot have drainage holes? Only asking as it looks like it doesn’t.

#### Lynzi 🩷님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

yes it have one hole!

I would take her out and check her soil. Make sure she has a chunky soil. I water mine about every two weeks and I drown her 😂 pictures of my girl

LOVE IT 😍😍 i was wondering if mine could be in to big of a pot, bc the roots arent to big yet?

#### Kentucky님이 2024-03-02에 답변했습니다.

Yes these big girls like to be a little root bound 🥰 give her a pot that lets her be a little snug. Maybe a humidifier 😉 I have one sitting next to her and the other babies
