# Hello! How often do you guys water your inch plants? I haven’t had…

_Posted by Oatishkay on 2024-03-19_

Hello! How often do you guys water your inch plants? I haven’t had mine very long and a few days after I watered it, some leaves looked overwatered and I keep snoozing Planta’s reminder for it. About half of the soil is still wet.  
Thank you for your help!

I saw your pot has drainage, but is there a possibility that it is sitting in water? I have one that about 1-2 waterings I skip the watering. Just depends on how much light she is getting or is the overhead fan is on a lot. You may need to change the soil, but give her some time to adjust to your home environment. Even if she was purchased at a box store they have a difference in humidity and lighting. I personally check if she is sitting in water and if so dump it out. Then after she dries out I would repot her.

I water when they are completely dry. I use the app to remind me to check them. They don’t like to sit in water so drainage holes and proper watering techniques are important. They’re strong plants and can survive while you learn what they prefer!
