_Publié par Nae le 2025-04-13_

I just got this guy on 3/29. I’ve been watering it enough for the soil to be wet all the way through but not soaking. I water him about every 7 days. I also mist him every other day/ 3rd day. I try to keep him in decent sunlight but I don’t want him to be directly in the sun since I live in a desert. Can anyone give me any tips so I can save him

Are you checking the soil to see if it’s dry before watering? I usually wait for my peperomias to dry out at least 75% if not all the way before watering again. I use a wood skewer to check

I’ll try a skewer to see the soil dampness thank you

Maybe shock from the recent transition home? Continue a consistent schedule and let it dry out more before watering
