Would you consider this translucent? Am I watering it too much? I do watering when this app tells me to do it.

Looks like too much water

Sometimes the app is accurate, other times it’s not. It’s always best to check your soil to see if it’s still moist before watering when the app tells you to! :)

NEVER EVER follow the apps water schedule. I have made that mistake and almost drowned all of my plants😭. Use them more as reminder to check your plants! If the soils is still moist you most likely don’t need to water it and many plants will tell you when they need water. Take pothos as an example their leaves curl up when they need water so just look for the signs!😊

Okay, thank you! Can the lighting be wrong too? Telling me I have plants in “too dark” of places?
