One of the most frequent questions we get is: How much should I water my plants?

All houseplants should not be watered exactly the same.

Broadly, they can be broken into 3 categories

Plentifully

• (Keep moist): water plentifully allowing much water to run out.
• Typically every 5-10 days - the top layer of soil can dry.
• Marantas, Calatheas, Lilies, Spiders

Moderately

• (Semi-dry): water just until water comes from the bottom.
• Typically every 10-20 days - the top few inches of soil should dry.
• Rubber trees, Figs, Philodendrons, Pothos, Monsteras

Sparingly

• (Let soil dry): water sparingly until soil has absorbed some, but don’t soak. 
• Typically every 20+ days - the top half of the pot should be dry.
• Snakes, ZZs, Succulents
