Water it and check the roots

It's normal for these to have a slight leaf curl, but they're also very thirsty as plants go. Water a bit more often. Also take precautions against root rot; these need good drainage and good moisture retention in their soil since they need such frequent watering. Also don't be alarmed if it dramatically wilts; these are known for that and they bounce back just as fast. It's best to avoid letting it faint, but it's interesting to see if it happens on accident

From my experience this is normal. Just make sure it stays watered correctly. It still grows normally. I think it's the humidity or sunlight.

These need a crap ton of water and humidity to be happy. I water my lemon lime probably every 3-4 days.

lol , just being dramatic. Just give some water and should bounce back. I usually bottom feed and use a plastic pot to know when it’s full (heavier)

### DrMom2025 ha commentato il 2025-10-18

They need a lot of water and mine loves humidity

Hmmm I water mine peer what the app says. And it sits in a window that faces north. Mine doesn’t get a ton of light. Maybe too much light?

The nerve plant. It does have “the nerve” to act the way it does. Being so dramatic. I started my plant journey in July. I’m now up to 41 plants lol. Here’s my nerve plant I bought in July after a few days of having it I thought I killed it haha and here it is today, I think it’s looking a little leggy, but it’s alive lol
