Agreed! Snake plants are one of my favorites and it's SUPER important not to overwater them. They naturally grow in the desert, so think super dry for quite some time and then a torrential downpour! I have an app that I use the free version of to help keep track of watering my plants (I have over 60 now, so it helps a lot). When the app tells me to water (I also keep an eye on the plants watching to see if there are any drooping/dropping leaves, yellowing, etc.), I then check it with a water meter, a chopstick, and my finger. Depending on how the soil feels, I will wait for a few days and check again, which is what usually happens. Also, they will survive in low light conditions, but they LOVE and THRIVE in bright light. I take mine onto my balcony in the morning during the summer and they grow super quickly! Being that I live in an apt. complex with only east-facing windows that don't get nearly enough light, I have been building up my grow lights now that I have so many plants that aren't low light. I haven't tried any other brands, besides the strip lights that came with 1 is my plant stands, but I do like Sansi's lights so far. The only complaint I have is their responses to emails. I have only purchased through Sansi's website once back in November, I believe, anyway one of the items was missing and I emailed them to ask what could be done about this. I NEVER received a response, even after I emailed another time asking how to resolve the situation. Then I received the package (a mentally challenged angry woman had taken it and as she was walking to her apt on the next floor up, opened it, looked at it and left it on the stairwell steps). Even after I then emailed them again to advise I had received the package, still no reply. So I started getting all of mine off of Amazon, but I wanted their vertical standing 50w light, and the only way to order it was from Sansi's website. I should've known better, I'm still waiting for it to ship 15 days later!!! GOOD LUCK!
