Ok tysm! #### Crystal님이 2024-07-22에 답변했습니다. Repotting in something smaller! #### Crystal님이 2024-07-22에 답변했습니다. 3 1/2 inch instead of that big 4-5 inch! Ty for the advice! ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OsdmbnbiJ8_MLGnqbw9L-9UvepoeGGGjxYnlYCzoZ-s/y7qV4Zz6R_Kh9tctihfDjw.webp?size=large) #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-07-22에 답변했습니다. nice! i bet it would like more light if you can provide it. maybe an east facing window or a little grow light #### Crystal님이 2024-07-22에 답변했습니다. I have little grow lights everywhere should i stick it closer to one of them? ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OsdmbnbiJ8_MLGnqbw9L-9UvepoeGGGjxYnlYCzoZ-s/cmBD9PMpTRq9DKhPHrIoBA.webp?size=large) _앱에 답글이 1개 더 있습니다._ ### Riley님이 2024-07-23에 댓글을 남겼어요. How long has it been since you watered and what soil is that? Unlike most plants, this kind of plant actually needs soil that’s really moisture retaining, and it needs watering often. If I have a leaf on mine that won’t unfurl, it usually will after watering. #### Crystal님이 2024-07-23에 답변했습니다. I watered also --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
