Too much water?

### Alyssa kommenterade den 2024-10-16

Looks like too dense of soil too

### Christine kommenterade den 2024-10-16

Lay off the water for a bit, maybe more light and “ignore” it

The pot size looks right. So too much water too often. Snake plant soil has to completely dry out. Then, water afterwards. Wait a day or two when in doubt. Never follow a strict watering schedule without verifying the soil is dry. This leads to root rot.

Bright lights for 8 hours is mandatory for snake plants to help the photosynthesis process. That area looks dark. Add a grow light for at least 12 hours.

Good airflow helps dry excess water in the soil and helps dry the water vapor on the plants caused by transpiration. 🍀🪴
