How much light a day is it getting? And how often are you watering it

#### MyaaddisOn replied on 2024-07-03

i water whenever the top part of the soil isn’t wet 🤷‍♀️  
and light depends because about half of the time it’s under and plant light and the other half near my window w about 3 hours direct sungligh and 3 indirect

Okay, I would leave it under the grow light, 12 hours a day. Mine has been thriving a lot more once a got a grow light and put it on for 12 hours. And I think it’s good on water, so I would just work on light.

If your watering schedule is ok, check for pests. I’ve lost an ivy to spider mites. Good luck!
