Pretty worried about my Jasmine! She has brown stems and drooping flowers. Do you think she’s under watered? I’ve started to water her every day but I worry that I’m not doing enough water with each pour. Let me know what you think

If you’re watering it that often I think you’re overwatering it, I water mine every week and a half or so.

It started before I was watering it every day

The leaves look wrinkly and dry. Looks like it’s under watered. It will take time to rehydrate. I recommend watering until the soil is fully saturated. The water should soak past the roots. Water at the base of the plant. Measure the quantity of water used to determine the amount needed to saturate the soil. Then, use a small shovel and check three places around the base of the plant to see how deep the water penetrates. Water more , if needed. This gives an idea the amount of water you have to use. Let the plant rest about a 5 days before watering again. Verify if it needs water before watering again. Then, thoroughly saturate the soil.

I'd bottom water it at least once to make sure its not hydrophobic. And water till it runs out the bottom of the pot after that
