Does anyone know what it means when a plant “sweats”? Lol woke up and the whole plant was like this!

The process is called Guttation, and is completely normal. Its a way for the plant to get rid of excess water. It does not mean you have overwatered.

The process is beautiful 😍

What GreenLeaf said ☺️ I feel like it happens more often when it’s hot and humid, but I don’t think of it as something to worry about. Just a visual way to tell how the plant “feels” about its environment. It’s cool to see adaptations like this 😁

The only thing I try to look out for when I see this is if a wet leaf is pressed against another leaf or surface, the water can cause a rot spot if it can’t evaporate. My poor half-moon monstera Peru aurea 🥲 But live and learn… and share knowledge ☺️
