Diffenbacia are very dramatic, so it’s important to stay on top on a watering schedule for them. While they do like moisture, it’s important not to give them too much water. So water them until you notice that the soil is dry (1/3-2/3 dry). But watering does depend on the type of environment it’s in. For instance, if you have it in bright indirect, then you might have to water it more often. Generally, for most plants in the winter, you shouldn’t have to water them frequently. But just go by that general guideline, and that should get you started.
