# Should I water my cyclamen? I lost most of the leaves and flowers…

Should I water my cyclamen? I lost most of the leaves and flowers because I watered too much I think. But I also read that some go into dormancy in the summer. Is that is what happening? Please help and thanks so much for any help! The top layer is dry to touch and doesn’t stick. The bottom layer is similar because I set it on a newspaper to dry it out after overwatering (unless it’s going dormant ugh idk pls help mee)

I killed mine cause I over watered it last year. I brought what was left to life but what I didn’t know was that it got a fungus from all that water and then I got fungus knats. I’d bottom water this just in case there are gnat eggs in the top soil.

I had 2 and the one in the bright light is a beautiful beast but the other in the lesser light looked just like yours, seemed droopy and overwatered. You might be able to revive it with great light
