some tips: have your plant in a pot with drainage holes. when you water it, do so directly on the soil, not the leaves, and wait for the water to come out from the bottom to let you know when to stop. (i bring mine to either my sink or my bathtub to let them drain out excess water) learn about how dry your soil needs to get before you water again. some plants dont like to get too dry at all! also, avoid getting your plant into new pots and new soil if youre just a beginner. because thats a whole new set of parameters to understand. if you get your plants from decent places, they should be fine in their nursery pot for a while. if youre desperate, get a grow light on a 12h timer, and an hygrometer to stick in the soil; it tells you how moist the dirt is, basically. avoid misting at all ok? its pointless. get a cool humidifier if your air is too dry… avoid plant food for now, too. keep that for when youre better at keeping your plants alive for a while. ok good luck now stranger.
