I’m following the water scheduling, per the app, which is about once a month. These are the first spots I’ve had on the plant and I’m wondering if I’m watering too much. I struggle determining soil moisture from dry damp to moist . I bought a moisture reader, which reads it’s dry, but when I put my finger in it feels damp not moist. From what I’ve read the snake plant doesn’t like a lot of water, so could the spots be due to overwatering? I’m in Edmonton Alberta, Canada and it’s winter right now. ![5개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/8H3QrXxPRoKmK5xOKncdrQ.webp?size=large) ![5개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/FVc_-KUyTDqX4J4lraNzrQ.webp?size=large) ![5개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/aAgY6g0VTQKUawgpDhfXCw.webp?size=large) ![5개 중 4번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/oZ6vVXjVTOaiTv4WplEg2g.webp?size=large) ![5개 중 5번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/th7c9Li2SrqAq6Rd7VsIow.webp?size=large) ## 10개의 댓글 ### Soup님이 2024-02-02에 댓글을 남겼어요. So, when it comes to checking the soil moisture, I’d suggest using a wooden cocktail stick and leave it in there for a bit, when you take it out, check to see if it’s damp and if a bunch of crumbs stick to it then you don’t need to water. If it’s dry and there’s little to no crumbs then water, additionally the app can be wrong due to environments constantly changing, I use it more to check my plants :) ### Dondoo52님이 2024-02-02에 댓글을 남겼어요. Also, with a meter, you have to check various spots around the pot. Some areas may register as dry while others will still have moisture. If my meter shows moist in any, I snooze the watering for another couple of days and recheck when it pops up again. ### Anna님이 2024-02-03에 댓글을 남겼어요. I have to snooze the watering reminder on my snake plant all the time. I actually give the leaves a little bend to see if it needs water. If it’s still pretty hard, I snooze. If they feel a bit floppy or soft, I water thoroughly. ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/xvKQbIJ2TJOJ18-CPxi-iQ.webp?size=large) ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/CWjKcA5WR1KVEiH944KESQ.webp?size=large) ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/B5JQ1ja7RVOsHqSjWez7oA.webp?size=large) ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. I found another leaf dying on that same bunch with the spotted ones. 1\. I’ve never trimmed or had to cut off a leaf before. Do I just try to cut the one leaf down right to the root dig into the dirt a bit to make sure I get it all? 2\. Do I dig out that whole root and see if there’s more going on then the I can see? ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. I see the odd small bug flying around as well. No idea what type of bug it is. ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/pJPb-WwpTWG6bdEagvZsVg.webp?size=large) ### Untetheredlove님이 2024-02-08에 댓글을 남겼어요. I went to cut it and it pulled right out. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/IDcrezeNCU85M-mIFz_DgadnuLlwGmnOp7M6OdAkjtk/gIcIZNxOSw-SKSN84QMqFw.webp?size=large) --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
