# My heartleaf (I know she’s not the prettiest but I love her) seems to…

_Geplaatst door Shinyy op 2023-06-09_

My heartleaf (I know she’s not the prettiest but I love her) seems to be growing pretty small leaves now there just getting smaller and smaller and I’m not sure why! I put it right in the window sill so I assume she gets enough light, it only gets direct sunlight in the morning then diffused bright light the rest of the day and the leaves aren’t damaged so I think it’s enjoying it but i can’t figure out why there so small, also the leaves are very close to the stems and i don’t know why either. Anything helps :) thank you

Hi, I think your heartleaf just needs some water. If you have one, try poking the soil with a wooden skewer or anything similar. If little to no dirt sticks, it probably needs water. Hope this helps!! I hope she gets better 🫶

Is it good to spray the leaves or leave water on them? I’ve heard it’s good and bad

I spray my plants pretty regularly but it depends on the humidity of your area. I live in a super dry area so it’s hard to over mist but if you live with a lot of humidity I would mist less.
