# My creeping Jenny is getting yellow leaves. I’m new to keeping plants…

My creeping Jenny is getting yellow leaves. I’m new to keeping plants alive (hence the app), and I’m watering her as often as plants tells me to, should it be more often? Thanks so much in advanced 🥰

Water only when almost dry and not strictly by a schedule. Check the soil with a wooden meat skewer or chopstick. A damp stick with shows the moisture level in the soil.

Place in bright light or full sun. Creeping Jenny thrives in 8 - 10 hours of full sunlight. (12 -14 hours of a grow light. ) They are very popular covering for concrete fences in my area. Makes an ugly fence look like trimmed hedges. 🍀🪴

This is great advice, thank you!

Gradually move it into full sun to acclimate it, if you plan to move it. It will burn if placed directly into full sun without letting it adapt.

brown leaves are dead, just pull them off (probably due to not enough light). yellow leaves are probably due to overwatering. planta wanted me to water everyday so i do nooooot do that lol
