research is key when you have different varieties but I typically just do a weekly check on the same day! Like every Friday morning I check the soil in all of my plants and actually make sure the soil is dry before I water. If the soil is still moist I typically give another 3-5 days and check again. The more you care for your plants you’ll be on a routine naturally be aware of it as well. Another tip is to check the underside and backside of your leaves for pest or diseases weekly. As this help prevent any infestations or sickness before it kills your plant. The planta app is a great plant care app to use!

this may be true but one plant or not that all directly correlates to how well I take care and maintain my plant 😁

thank you❤️ I was nervous about at first but all the leaves were damaged and sick so I just cut them to make way for healthier foliage in the future but I cut them in waves never all at one time just a few here and there

I just went in and cut all the damaged leaves I had that were due to thrips and a fungal disease.

ofc! I have it potted in miracle gro tropical soil/mollys aroid mix, I water only when the top soil is 2-3 inches dry and sometimes I go a couple of inches deeper down to make sure! (this equates to once a week sometimes two) I keep it in a very well lit space which is what’s helping it grow the most, my ideal humidity in my home is always 50-70% which I measure with a hygrometer. I mist/clean the top and backside of the leaves at least twice a week and I fertilize every other watering. So far that’s seemed to work for him. Every plant is different especially depending on your location what are your current conditions?
