Os my Pilea getting too much light? leaves seem to be folding away from my grow light?
pileas are so easy to read with the way their leaves fold! inward is a stress response to something, probably underwatering. They curl in to preserve what they have. Mayyyybbbeeee it’s too much light, but hard to say for sure. Can you help us rule out underwatering by giving us your routine?
좋아요 1개so i currently just water based on this apps schedule & bottom water when i do! i thought that when underwatered, the leaves start to droop, which is why i thought this may be too much light? this is my first pilea, so not much experience
