Watering question

[NewGrow2019]

My plants usually have the fan leaves facing up about 45-50 degrees. When I water them within about 5 minutes the leaves all bow down and look like they're soaked but by next morning all are back facing the upward angle again. Is this normal, if not what am I doing wrong with the watering? I water every two days, when I tried every three the medium was powdery dry as far as I could put my finger. Thanks for any insight.

every 2 or 3 days is fine. The leaves are fine as well.

Look in my signature under how to water a potted plant. It wouldn't hurt for you to read through that link

@Emilya has a great thread of a proper way to water a plant, maybe she’ll stop by and say hey.

Welcome to the site by the way! Wish I had more time for a better reply to your question but I’ve got my hands full!!

@Backlipslide yes she has a great read on watering. I was doing it totally wrong before I read that thread. EVer since I've changed to the method in @Emilya thread I've noticed a huge difference.

I'm actually going through your threads now. While i feel confident on what I know I love to see different grow styles and methods
