Hi so I think the soil in one of my plants is too compacted. I tried doing the finger test to see how wet/dry the soil was and it was difficult to make a hole in the soil. But my plant seems to be doing good, it’s even growing new leaves! Should I try to take out some of the soil to loosen it up or leave it be since it’s growing? I attached a photo of the growth☺️
So when my soil gets like this I take like a chop stick and poke holes on the soil and loosen it up

Take chopsticks to loosen up with the chopsticks poke holes into it!
2 likesIf you do the chopstick method, wait a few days to water. Allows the roots time to heal.
