My prayer plant looks good, however each time I go to water it the soil reads, “wet” on the moisture meter. What should I do? Just put it on snooze? I feel like it’s wet every time. There is no water coming out from drainage hole so it’s not like it’s sitting in water. Thanks for any advice! :)

Best practice is to test with a stick, if when you pull out the stick there is earth, no need to water, it means your soil is still humid. If the stick comes out dry you can water! So your moisture meter is probably correct!
