# Hey guys. I’m new to this whole plant thing. Only really started…

_Posted by Keaton on 2023-12-09_

Hey guys. I’m new to this whole plant thing. Only really started getting into it a couple of months ago. I have a good handful of plants, one of them being an amaryllis, which I heard is beautiful this time of year when they start to bloom. I was informed from the nursery that they should be watered every couple of days or so when they’re young and still growing. However, planta is telling me to water it every 2-3 weeks?? I got two conflicting watering times here. Anyone got some suggestions or the right info here? Here’s my baby :

A weekly basis… trust the nursery more than the app 🫤
