I know that Croton’s like to be dry before they are watered, but how dry is dry…🙄! Can anybody give me the percentage of dryness I should look for on my water meter? I do use a wood stake, but that comes clean out at about 38% dryness with my moisture meter. Soooo, how dry is dry for a Croton? TIA!
